Before I get to that, I have an update. I went to the ophthalmologist and got my patch removed, he said all was well and to continue with the drops. On the way home I began to notice all the changes I could see. Things were brighter and even at this early stage I hardly need my glasses. Some of the drops sting a bit though. I think Rosalie is using lemon juice just to see how high I can jump.
Now to the Grrr! bit.
My granddaughter was good enough to sell me her old iPhone 12 Max Pro at a good price. I noticed that the camera was blurry and after some research found that the camera needed to be replaced. I checked YouTube and the process seemed to be fairly straightforward.
I ordered a new camera and started the repair. After I was finished I put it all back together and turned it on. There was a lovely coloured band running the length of the screen. What I hadn’t realized was that the screen had a small crack and when I opened it up I made it worse. Back to Amazon to order a new screen. In the meantime, the phone still worked but the band got in the way.
When the screen arrived I gingerly opened up the phone again to see what needed to be done. Inside there are some small ribbon cables and while I was working on it one of them snapped. At that point, I almost snapped and threw the phone against the wall. I don’t think I could have done any more damage. I don’t know how it broke as I wasn’t working near it. Back to Amazon to order another new part.
In the meantime, I have no phone. Normally this wouldn’t be a problem but with the big party this weekend people will need to contact me so I decided to call forward to Rosalie’s phone.
I logged into Koodo and found the add-on and activated it for $3 a month. The next problem was that I need my phone to do the call forward thing. (Now you know why I drink) I thought about it for a while and then had an idea. I took Rosalie’s phone and put my sim card in, did the call forward thing, and then switched it back again. I called Peter to ask him to call me and the whole system worked. At least something went right with that phone.
The next thing is, putting it all together when the new part gets here. I’ll keep you posted but don’t expect any phone calls in the meantime..
