🚜 29 on the charge ..... into Sept and beyond ....

 🚜  .... coffee [ check ] and the view is gray w/ high cloud cover, as in a blanket

What they don't tell you. New phone, ' lets transfer data. Done. But not all your apps are there.

Thus, take the old phone [ sorry 6 a ..... really ] and c.f. the screens. --- Oh, security controls.Oh, healthcare app .... . So far, its 6 and a bunch more I can tell ....

Richest of all. I bought a transparent case, drop protection [ absolutely ] THEN, I actually considered not using the screen protector that I added to the phone bundle.
Are you kidding me   ... Dumbo ! 

Job 1, then this AM

🛸 on the two eight of nine

   🛸........ alrighty, coffee is finished making noise ...
the view is gray and traces of wet on  the ground. cloud cover is complete

and the sun broke out for the bulk of the day. 

NEWS of the house.
Consumerism rampage.
 I bought a new phone.
 Pixel 6a was the phone this morning. And by 4 PM a Pixel 9 a showed up at the door.

WHY ? a new phone. I dropped the 6 a [ too many times ] and replaced the screen. But I didn't check to make sure that the shop restored the screen sensitivity. 
One year of updates remained. 

However, the gossip was that the 9 a was the most reasonable priced unit [ at $ 500 , if it got there ] c.f. the Pixel 9 / 9 pro / 10 / 10 pro. For the year, Pixel 9 a has been $ 679, even after the Pixel 10 dropped. Last night, you got it .... $ 500.

Lets admit that the others have features not found on the 9 a. But in truth, the 9 a is more than I need [ as in, I won't use 30 % of the new stuff ]. 
Yet, it will be fast and complete. And updated for 7 years, security and software

And realize the 9 a cost less than the Pixel 6 a. 
So, $ 500. yes, time to move

🚚 27 th of Sep

  🚚 ..... blueberry tea and the view is Eternal Blue and sun. 

In the kitchen, another shot at Japanese curry. Carrots and potatoes were sliced thin. Added some cabbage sliced a tad thinner than in the package. Add chicken stock and microwave at least 6 min.
Meanwhile, onion and garlic are slow sauteed. Then add mostly cooked veg. Use some more chicken stock for liquid. Pepper and Old Bay spice. Simmer for ten minutes and withdraw some liquid. Use the paste cubes from Japanese curry package. Dissolve the paste and then remove pan from heat. Now, swirl in the dissolved paste. Return to heat, let bubble.
The rice is microwaved w/ stock and after 1 min, I added gravy and leftover green beans. one more minute and add curry blend to one side of the rice.
Lunch. Nicely done. Definitely a success. And there are leftovers here. 

I did organize the corner desk. Tidy upped and such

🚐 on the twenty sixth
