I started to do my post for today but couldn’t find my smartphone!
I looked in all the likely places inside the apartment, then thought it might have fallen out of my jacket pocket in my car. I’d taken it with me to dialysis. Not there!
I tried to think of other places inside that I’d been after I came home.
(NOTE: In situations of this nature, you always went places and did things you ordinarily rarely go or do. Always!)
Having exhausted all the likely places, I returned to the place I usually place it, a box with odds and ends of scissors, pens, paper, Scotch tape, a remote for the air conditioner, a remote for the radio, charging cords, AND my smartphone.
I dug through that mess a second and third time then noticed that my missing smartphone slipped over the side and was between the ottoman and the box.
Whew! It is a scary thought what I’d have to do if I didn’t find it. The first thought was how do I notify you and family that I’m OK when my blog and Facebook go unupdated till I could go to the phone store Monday? And how do I call anyone even then because everyone’s phone number is on my smartphone!? I think I will create a telephone directly, on paper. You know how, one more thing to misplace, but a good idea just in case I don’t lose it and need those numbers.
