Hi fellow mylotters.

Well, let me tell you about finding things. Recently went through my closet and found an old mobile phone of mine. Is it a Skyfire model Cherry Mobile, a local mobile phone company.
Had lots of photos and text messages in this phone. Photos have been moved to cloud storage. Texts are still here along with a couple of numbers from previous contacts. Memories during a tumultuous past. Haven't closed the chapter on that one but have moved past it.
Anyway, I had it fixed and it is working now. Will have to get a SD card for this to improve its memory capacity. Been using this as an alarm and a burner phone/emergency phone. Battery life is still good.
The screen saver is the only photo that I kept. Man, I miss training. Happier times.
Have you found anything recently that made you smile?

You planning to throw those bills out or will you keep those?

@allen0187 I threw, it was funny to see the prices of things 40 years ago.

Hello Allen.
Great photo of you there..yes training I bet you do miss that.
I was wondering how you took the photo of your phone, but now I see you found the old phone.
Oh man now you have more things to sort and put for storage.
I have too many photos and downloads.
I need an office assistant
Good glad to hear life is good for you.

Thanks.
I'm one of those who had my photo for a screen saver. Recently realized that some people frown upon this. Not sure why.
Life is indeed good. Things turned better with the new job that I have.
Hope all is well in your end as well Becca.

@allen0187 I am surprised people frown on that. Nothing wrong with it.
Especially when it is you

Old photos are nice.
Have you thought of saving these photos digitally?

When I switch out my cellphone, which I do about every two years, I give my old one to Pretty. She uses them to run apps she can make money with. I just pull out the SD card and hand the phone over to her. (I do have one old phone that I update contact information on in case I have to reset a new phone but I only store contact information on it. (That phone is six or eight years old now. It wouldn't make calls since the tech has changed too much in that length of time.)
Nope... We still have boxes we haven't gone through since we moved three years ago but I don't feel like digging into them yet. I just stored them in the back of my closet until I do feel like digging them out and looking to see what's there.

My current phone has been acting strangely. Turns on and off for no reason. I think I need to change the battery. Really hope it is nothing serious as I do not have any plans of getting a new one.

@allen0187 What kind of phone is it and how long have you had it?
I was getting concerned about you since I haven't seen you on either site for a week. (I hunted you down yesterday on Noise to see if I'd just been missing you there for some reason... I hope you've just been gone because you're too busy to be here and there.)

It is indeed a joyful moment if we suddenly find any old gadget in working condition. And a phone is a versatile gadget though it might be old.
I haven't found anything as such recently. On the other hand, things are going kaputt here more often recently.

They don't make things as they used to.

Honestly, I have no idea.
Perhaps, check independent review sites about this.
