Just another day in the life

04-12-25 new phone

April 12, 2025


I woke up after a decent sleep to a day that would be full of rain and snow and breaks and rain and snow and all the herring weather. I had received an email from Telus saying that I had signed up two years ago for the buyback program and that if I didn’t trade up my phone I would have to pay $420 before the end of April. Being that I trade my technology regularly this is not a surprise, but it also seems more significant with the news reporting that phones and other tech will go up due to the tariffs on items. Actually needed a cord that I had so I had it off drop that off borrowed the cord from her and then headed to the Telus in the mall. I came out with an iPhone 16 Pro and after going in checking, staples and winners came back and also bought a new case and pop socket with the proper holder for my car. It is pretty desert colored, and I have a clear sparkly case over it.

While I was in the mall, I checked out winners and managed to find what I think is a lovely Easter present for Madi who was mine in the gift draw this year amongst the adults.

Went home I sorted through all my cords and have an entire bag of lightning cords and a brand new case for any phone up to an iPhone 15. Of course I just bought the case last weekend on sale at Staples and it doesn’t fit my new phone because it has a side button for photos which I look forward to getting used to.

I stopped at the office on my way home, intending to hook up my hard drives and pull the photos off them so that they’re all in one place but as it turns out, I got distracted doing people‘s taxes and that is not necessarily a bad thing because it takes some of my workload away

Once home again, I made food and tried to work on my BB8, but I was just kinda not in the mood for it so now I am sitting here watching black mirror which I discovered has a new season on Netflix
