Bright but cold here, good days to stay indoors and try to get my stuff in order. Soup, muffin, and hot cocoa days.

Took the time to record little phone messages left by relatives the last few years. One just died and it seems like a good time to 'get around to it'. My horrible phone and company make this as difficult as possible, but I got a recording of the whole mess and then saved clips of important voices in Audacity.   Before I erase them from the phone, I'll back them up to external.

It's a good time for backups too, so I'll do a round of that, and fish for recovery of photo files that didn't make the last transfer properly.

THEN, fully backed up, I will ditch this awful phone and company, already have the new phone ready to go. I'll probably stay busy with this sort of thing through strike-and-buy-nothing-day on Friday. Just in time for the useless library to close for 2.7 days as per usual.
