My phone gave up.

In case any of you were wondering, I'm NOT ignoring you. Probably nobody has called or texted anyway, but in any case, I am without my cell phone for a few days. Here's the story.

On Friday around noon-ish, I was typing a long text message when my phone shut off & restarted itself. ... or TRIED to restart itself. It just kept trying over & over to restart. After our inservice & chiropractor, & getting out to PV to the store... The Verizon people called it "power cycling", and there's nothing they can do to fix it.

I was really mad about the fact that I've lost EVERYTHING that I had on my phone- pictures (including some of my favorites that I now have no copy of), videos, conversations, calendar things... Gone. All of it. That also made me really sad! I've felt really disconnected from everyone & everything.

I came home & ordered a new phone online, & now I'm just waiting "1-2" or "2-3" business days for it to get here. Thank goodness I was past due for an upgrade! But Too Bad I didn't just DO the upgrade a few days ago, or a month or two ago.

Oh well. I'm comming to terms with my loss.

I've got a job!!

Early this morning I was up in Chino Valley for a job interview, and I was told to expect to hear back on Thursday. I've already been offered 2 other positions that I didn't feel good about taking, but I've felt really good about accepting this one if it is offered to me.
Well... TONIGHT the Principal called me & offered me the position! and ... I accepted!

I'M GOING TO TEACH 4TH GRADE AT TERRITORIAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!

I'm pretty excited, & wanted to let everyone know!

Third Offer's the Charm!
