Sunday Morning

This weekend has been a busy one, which isn't really normal. Our weekends our usually kinda lazy. But not this time. Today will be no different either. Lots of stuff to do around the house inside and out. And I've yet to start on the scrapbook, I would like to think that I will get started on it today, but who knows for sure. 

Yesterday morning, the kids and I went with Nana looking for some yard sales. We found plenty! We both got lots of great deals! Mom racked up on a bunch of brand new toys for the kids, a TV for one of the extra bedrooms at their new house, and a Foosball table! What!?!? Yes, you read that right. I on the other hand, got a little exercise trampoline for five dollars for the kids, a gardening cart (score!), a new dress (still had tags on it), shoes (of course!) and a new beach bag (duh!). I love yard sales! I actually need to have another one here! Mom is planning one at her new place, but I'm not sure when she wants to do it yet. I may just take all the crap we have in the shed here for our yard sales over to her place. Why not? 

On a different note, I am loving my new phone! It's pretty much just like my old Thunderbolt. Richard thinks it's crap and wants me to put Cyanogen on it, but I refuse. Every time he changes crap on my phones it doesn't work right for me. So no. He will not be touching my phone. Oh snap! I just realized I didn't even tell you that I got a new phone! Yay. It's nothing fancy, but it works for what I want and need. It's a Samsung. I wanted an HTC but I didn't want to pay that price. I'm just glad to have Android again, that's all that really matters to me. I got the phone on Thursday, I think. Set it all up, downloaded all the apps I need/want and now I'm kinda obsessed with Instagram. Oh well. 

I guess that's enough rambling for this morning. The kids seem to be starving so it's time to make them some eggs and bacon, per Brookes' request.

Mama NEEDS Android Again!

So, I must admit, I am a tad frustrated this morning. My huni buni gave me his old HTC Shift Android phone last night because I've been bitching and moaning for SO long about getting a new phone. Mind you, I have this piece of crap phone that I can't really do anything on, not even Internet really because it sucks. Seriously. I do have the Thunderbolt, but apparently I'm pretty clumsy and it's got a giant crack across the screen. Also, GTalk and the camera don't work on it anymore because of my huni putting different Roms and crap on it. So my point is this... he is a programmer, he does ALL kinds of crap to and for phones. He's looked upon like he's a "God" or something in the developer community, which is fine. He gets all kinds of phones just handed to him left and right to work on. He has the latest, greatest of everything, and I have this BUNK ASS phone. WTF! The phone I want isn't really all that great even, but it's better than what I have now which isn't even an Android phone at all. I think Mom should be able to have a bad ass phone too, right? Well, instead of him getting me a phone he gives me his old phone. Really? Is it too much to ask for a NEW phone? Fresh out of the box? No scratches. No issues. Not a hand-me-down? I don't think so. But you know what? Beggars can't be choosers. So I will take this Shift and set it up and try to get it switched over to Metro, but I think it's going to cost like $80 he said and the damn phone I wanted is only $120! If I'm going to spend $80 to get his old phone hooked up for me then what's an extra $40 for a BRAND NEW PHONE?? It's ridiculous really in my opinion. And I know I shouldn't be picky or whatever but screw that. The whole reason for me wanting a new HTC phone is for Sense and I can't have Sense on the Shift he gave me because he put Cyanogenmod on it. No offense to my huni and his friends' Rom and crap but I want HTC Sense damnit!  

So, this is me ranting this morning. I hope you enjoyed it because I know I did. What do you think? Should I just take the phone and shut my mouth? Or should I continue to bitch until I get what I want?
