So that's on my agenda today. 
It's a Samsung Galaxy S25FE. All of my apps, pictures, music, games, and contacts DID transfer over, which was great! Just some of the apps want me to login again, and it's not recognizing what I think my password should be. So overall, it was a great transition.SeattleParrotHead wrote: November 10, 2025 9:47 am WHat kind of phone did you get, MsMod? I've avoided getting a new one just to avoid the hassle of transitioning everything.....
Oh the horror!!!
Kevin just ordered his new iPhone because his is paid off (he always thinks he needs the newest one). I'm about 4 "numbers" behind and I don't care.SMLCHNG wrote: November 10, 2025 9:09 am Good morning! I got a new phone yesterday, and several things require my password to open up the apps. Unfortunately, some of them aren't working.
E took today off work to celebrate the Marine Corps birthday.
Have a good Monday!!
Exactly why I put off getting a new phone as long as I can! My last "upgrade" was because I needed a 5G compatible one and found that had to give up on a replaceable battery,SMLCHNG wrote: November 10, 2025 9:09 am Good morning!

at least it was free. Now it appears any "upgrade" will also involve not having a memory card. Can you say "planned obsolescence"? The Great Lakes Brewing Co. in Cleveland makes a porter called Edmund Fitzgerald. It was one of the beers in my Beer Of The Month Club delivery last month, it was pretty good. They also make a pale ale called Burning River in honor of the Cuyahoga River catching fire. I used to have a T-shirt with the artwork from the Burning River can but that's long gone.Caribbean Soul wrote: November 10, 2025 5:09 pm Today is also the 50th anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald going down in Lake Superior. I wonder if they rang the bell 30 times again, the extra toll being in memory of Gordon Lightfoot.
And within about an hour of posting this, they are ALL working.Caribbean Soul wrote: November 10, 2025 5:09 pmExactly why I put off getting a new phone as long as I can!
Yahoo's password reset took the longest. I had a 2 step authentication to email accounts that no longer existed. Yahoo (my email) is very thorough, which I appreciate. Later last night I felt like I had a piece of fuzz in my left eye. I used prescribed OTC eye drops, and today I noticed the left eye had less clarity than the right. Called the Dr.'s office and went in at 2:00 today. Drops, pictures, bright lights, and everything is FINE! Just part of the healing process. But I'm glad they still listened to me, instead of blowing me off. Good people.SMLCHNG wrote: November 10, 2025 6:50 pmAnd within about an hour of posting this, they are ALL working.Caribbean Soul wrote: November 10, 2025 5:09 pmExactly why I put off getting a new phone as long as I can!
I also noticed that yesterday my distance vision in both eyes was SOOOO clear!!
