Phone woes

We’ll i might not have as many woes as i did about an hour ago when i started trying to post things on myLot. My iPhoe charger has decided to be super finicky about when and how well it wants to work. To the point that it has only wanted to charge my phone if i leave my phone completely flat and dont mess with it or jostle it. So i decided i would type my posts out on my laptop then Bluetooth them to my phone and post them that way. I spent fifteen minutes writing something to post and then saved it on the laptop and tried to Bluetooth it to my phone, it didn’t work. I thought maybe it was just that it wasn’t connected right , but i made sure it was and then tried three more times so i gave up on that. A few minutes ago i went to switch laundry and saw my old Bluetooth keyboard sitting in our laundry basket i forgot that i had grabbed it when we went by the house before coming here. I then had a brain v last -you know the opposite of a brain far. Also shout out to anyone who remembers jimmy nuetron sayin brain blast in the old cartons- . I linked the Bluetooth keyboard with my iPhone and am now able to Mylot straight from my phone while it charges, huzzah I also got to thinking about how old this keyboard is…. I bought it when i was working at Dollar Tree, before my arm got broken by the ex…. So it s like eight years old I’m honestly impressed it still works. But I am super glad it does. Now that I know this set up will work, i am going to let my phone charge all the way and then i will be back to ineract. Thank goodness for little miracles. Also thank God for @AmbiePam for putting up with all my random text messages complaining about literally every little thing that doesn’t go righ, i dont know where i would be without her.

Got to love bluetooth technology. Ever thought about getting a new charger? How old are your phone and charger?

I don't have the money to replace the phone or the charger.

@thislittlepennyearns You can get a good made for iphone charger for a couple of bucks from any convience store. Often they are often better then what the Apple site sells. It's not as expencive as you might think.

@kaylachan No, they are crappy. They ruined one of my phones. And I do not have a couple bucks to spare for something that isnt a neccesity. It charges if I leave it alone. The convience store chargers burn up, and mess with phones. Im not willing to risk the phone too. I can't afford replacing a cord, there's no way I can afford replacing a whole phone.

I’ve still never used Bluetooth. I’m stuck in what, 2008?

@thislittlepennyearns Nope! Too many bills to pay even when things get cheaper (and thank goodness they get cheaper!).

@AmbiePam My wireless ear buds that I swear by were $8 and the battery lasts weeks. I'll have to send you a pair!

That's really helpful that your old keyboard still works.
