I'm almost ready for my first nap.
All I have to do is find one more dog. I got two, third one is hiding somewhere because I tried to give her Trifexis . I live in heartworm central.
She hates Trifexis and can smell it in a different country.
🤷♀️I hope it was Molly, the other 2 couldn't hide quite so easily hahaha.
I tried Trifexis with my last one, what, 7-8 years ago? and it was a struggle to get him to eat it. I just go with Hartguard Plus + a Seresto collar for fleas/ticks and Sweet Pea also gets the updated Lyme vaccine yearly.
Here is your coffee! I used more than 3 creamers worth of half-n-half
Sweet Pea barked at me to wake up and let her out a half hour ago so I'm running on about 4.5 hrs sleep. It wouldn't be quite so bad if I didn't have to go to Providence today.
Yeah, it was Molly. She was hiding from me...in my bed

I'm in a similar boat; my iPhone 7 has 256GB and while I'm not constrained for space it does have more than 128GB used.
If I wanted free service I'd have to use AT&T, which, given my need for coverage throughout northern New England isn't going to happen.
Interesting as AT&T advertises in my area that they have the United States virtually all covered. Why would they not pay close attention to the high density areas? Where I live there are more wild animals than people and we have reasonably good service even into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (no I don't mean a Sattelite Phone).
Same here. You either get AT&T or Verizon. T mobile has strange coverage some very small towns but not even downtown County Seat.
My tin can can do better than Sprint.
Just spent the better part of a week with no cell coverage. TMo.
About ready to dance with the deVil.

May we take a brief Moment of silence for all those who lost and gave their Lives in the line of Duty!
Of the 2,977 victims killed in the September 11 attacks, 412 were emergency workers in New York City who responded to the World Trade Center. This included:
- 343 firefighters (including a chaplain and two paramedics) of the New York City Fire Department (FDNY);[1]
- 37 police officers of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police Department (PAPD);[2]
- 23 police officers of the New York City Police Department (NYPD);[3] and
- 8 emergency medical technicians and paramedics from private emergency medical services[4]
- 1 patrolman from the New York Fire Patrol[5]
18 years ago? Wow. I remember it vividly. My stepdad woke me up that morning when the first plane hit. I was late to the start of the school year and so I didn't start until the Friday after it happened. A very sad day in American history. Thank you for sharing @M_Smart007.
I worked on the eastern end of Wall Street for Citigroup and had just talked to my co-worker (a VP who was in charge of her department) about how great it felt to get into the office early when the first plane hit. We didn't have any radios, so we got what information we could and were told to stay in place. As the dust came across town (The World Trade Center was on the west part of downtown and it's about 3/4 of a mile or so from where I worked) and filled up the vents, we were told to walk down the stairs and out to the street. We walked down 22 flights of stairs and saw people trying to get anywhere. All I could do was walk from Wall Street to Grand Central Terminal (a little less than 4 miles), stopping several times to get something to drink and eat. The suburban trains (Metro-North) were running, so I rode it to the stop closest to my home at the time in the Bronx. I walked past the local firehouse and saw trucks from nearly every northern suburb lined up on the street. I got home and was simply in shock.
My work was relocated to Stamford, CT for a few days and I remember writing to my manager that the terrorists were trying to scare us, but all they did was (tick) me off. We went back to Wall Street a few days later to see armed National Guard troops in front of the building and limited lighting. I was coughing every day after I left the office, so I got a soda, a habit I still hold to this day.
I came to find out that another co-worker's wife worked at Cantor Fitzgerald in the twin towers. She always loved coming to work early, but that day she overslept and got downtown right as the first plane hit. She would have been dead had she followed her usual routine.
The office I now work at is across the street from Ground Zero, so no one will be in today. I normally work from home four days a week, but it's difficult to go past there and think about what happened.
I apologize for the length of this post, but I felt the need to tell my story.

The mug reminds me of a funny story.
My father passed away and I had to go out to claim the body. My brothers arrived first and did so on my behalf. (Obviously, that's not the funny part).
I got home at 3 AM and was going to take the week off. At about 7 AM, the landlord's wife (they lived upstairs) said to her daughter "GET UP NOW!". I don't know if she woke up, but I did and got dressed very quickly.

Don't misunderstand, I am no fan of Tmo. But NOBODY covers West Virginia.
Good morning
I got some sleep last night, which means I have to do some real work today
In credit news, i finally have statement from USocks Bank. So happy they fixed their one and only abacus
In life news, mandatory flu shot today. I have no clue why, but I always hurt at the site of injection for days. Not as bad as DTaP, but bad
Also hoping they dont go all the way to the bone this time. That was kinda irritating last time. Had to get a second one because of it.
I think I'll do my own. There are no rules against it, it just has to be witnessed.
So, expect that whine later
My package is finally supposed to be delivered today. Four days of travel back and forth from Seattle to Spokane. I guess package needed mini vacation. Been so long, I had to look up what I ordered 🤷
I think that's it for right now. The brain is working, but it's not at full power yet.
@bizarrocreditworldNo Apology needed. Wow, I get to converse with a 9-11 survivor.
Thank you for sharing your story. That was powerful to read!. I am glad you made it.
Sincerely, M.Smart
