    Funeral for my dad’s best bud tonight. One of the best guys I knew. Great to hear the nice things people had to say about him. All true. And that’s not just “after they die talk”. One of the 3 people who actually call me Mel irl. He was a freaking force with a huge personality.😔

    Those military honors get me every time. And seeing his wife and other people dance at the end because it’s what he would have wanted.😭

    And another funeral this Monday for someone only 44.

    So sorry Mel 😞

    Sorry about your loss Mel ❤️...
    A father's friend can often be super close... My father's best friend is over my house every weekend to see my kids...

    Hope you're doing well ❤️

    A friend of my DIL saw Leonardo DiCaprio at a restaurant last night.
    People left him alone, she said.
    He is shooting a movie in town.

    Aw thanks ladies. It’s more his family than me that I’m sad for. Don’t mean to make it about me or anything. It feels surreal he’s gone and I feel like even he was far too young.

    <3:(

    Why can’t my commitment and loyalty be matched?
    Is it really such a hard thing?
    A promise is a promise unless it isn’t really,
    then it’s just meaningless words.
    Why say the words if you don’t really mean them deep in your soul?
    Just a little lonely today.

    I’ve only ever had iPhones so I have nothing to compare it too, also the co. pays for them so….

    The one with tech influencer reviews that cover how well the phone works...as a TELEPHONE rather than a camera. Or an app receptacle. Like how is the audio quality? Where are the speakers and microphone located so as to improve upon call quality or ambient noise reductions?

    Still looking personally so, uhh, good luck.

    Caveat: the preceding post was made by an Android-user which is synonymous with being curmudgeonly. YMMV.

    Cheapest Smartphone I can get. Currently, Android something or other for $60, which I think is too much, since the last was $29. I drop or step on them so often, to buy anything other than the cheapest is silly. Never had one last more than 1-1/2 to 2-yrs. This 6-mo model already has a cracked case, even though I purchases a protective rubber case to encase it. I'm the clumsiest person I know... I'm guessing that's never gonna change.

    Aside from that, I can do anything on my phone that I need... listen to podcasts/music in the car, get online via Chrome or to email/text, set up weather alerts & 50 other things I use it for... I cannot imagine spending $1K on an iPhone, but regardless of how much $$ I have, I'm frugal anyway.

    BTW, I had an iPhone with a previous job for about 2-yrs. It was a constant problem, mostly with a freezing screen. What an annoyance. That's my 2-pence.

    I’ve been watching reviews and it’s on top of all the lists but a grand plus... 💀 I can only say “treat yourself” so much 🤔🧐
    I started out with androids, then a windows phone that didn’t support apps (I DIED missing out on the Pokémon Go craze, broke my little heart)
    Then got this super old Iphone SE but I have enjoyed it despite it being out of date. Perhaps I’ll get a older model than the 12 but more up to date than my iphone.

    I barely call anyone. 😅 I’m looking at the camera, storage, battery life. I’m a frivolous person and my phone is mostly just an entertainment device. 😅

    Ya I’m usually frugal like this but I’ve been trying to indulge a little in the nicer things in life. Still not sold on my phone needing to cost more than my “professional-ish” camera I fretted over spending I think, $500 on. I’ll probably decide on something cheap seeing as I can just take any quality pictures or videos with my camera instead of investing in a phone.
    I paid $90 a few years back for this old af iphone se and it’s been fine for what it is and it’s been janky since I dropped it in the toilet last year. 😅 I just look at this thing and am like..... girl, you deserve better. 😅😅😅😅😅

    If they don’t have great 5G coverage in your area I’d say your not missing out on much with the 12 - an x or 11 would be fine

    Why flash mobs make me cry. :)

    I got bored last night so went through my saved videos on youtube and came upon a couple flash mobs I loved...which I will now be subjecting you to:

    This was from Ohio State...I think they'd just won something sporty:

    https://youtube.com/watch?v=HDNOB6TnHSI&list=PL8168E72F4F7CF2D6&index=2&t=174s

    And this is Do Re Mi from the Sound of Music in Belgium. Sooooo here for the remix version:

    Now you need the toonie...
    Canadian money sounds funny right 😅

    And the American quarter.

    Where are the rest from?

    thank you very much.

    I had a Toonie somewhere. Is it true you can actually remove the middle of it?

    My aunt's dog ate some of my US dollar bill, true story hahaha. At least Canadian money is durable, even though I just asked about defacing it lol.

    Most are the $2 Aussie ones, I had some more at one stage but spent them.

    UK Pound Sterling (the old one and new one) and NZ Dollar are in there.
