The window people came yesterday and finally installed the new window. You would choke if you knew what it cost.
My Bing page is still taking almost 1/2 hour to load; so I did my searching on Google.
Cousin #2 is on the phone with me right now. She wants to come over and print something and take two pieces of my wicker furniture. I could cry.
Boost Mobile was not able to access a flip phone for me; so they told me to go online. I can't do that because it requires sending me a text to verify my identity. Can't do that because my phone is dead. HOWEVER my husband's phone took a charge and is usable. I just need to find out if I can use his phone.
Breakfast - PB&J sandwich
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Chicken burger, peas, carrots, pears
Dessert/Snack - Banana chocolate chunk muffin
Dinner - Buffalo chicken/Muenster sandwich, tortilla chips, ice cream bar
What did you have to eat yesterday?

@LooeyVille It's a great deal for doing something I'd do anyway.

Day before yesterday I had that problem with Bing, but it righted itself for yesterday and today. Like @porwest I like the points for Amazon gift cards. I nickel and dime myself at several sites.

Yes, I was able to get online much quicker today. Bing has been ridiculously slow.

I used to get Walmart gift cards, but those had to be printed out. With the Amazon cards I can just load those right into my account and use them as I need something. I don't buy a lot of stuff from Amazon, but there are a couple regular items I get, and the Bing points sure do come in handy to pay for them.

My parents had some of their windows done several years ago. I didn't ask how much it cost...They have the money.

@LindaOHio I went to one of those promotional dinners for a windows replacement company in the spring I didn't find out the costs, because I was just there for the free food .

@snowy22315 Hubby always wanted to go to those free dinners; but I didn't want to hear the sales pitches and be hounded by salespeople.

They are ridiculously expensive. I don't think they should be that much.

Yes, windows are very expensive. There are a lot of things that I can't participate in without a smartphone.

@LindaOHio I am really annoyed to be obliged to have one to access my Bank online with the computer. They need to send the security code to my smartphone.

Sounds like the cousin has you over a barrel regarding the furniture. it's easy to say don't give it to her but I can understand how hard that would be. Do you use it? Meanwhile, is this the same cousin with the french fries fiasco?

@Marilynda1225 I would have to put a TV tray there to hold the lamp and the phone. That's too tacky, plus I really love that table.

Yes, the very same one. I have decided she can have everything except for my glass-topped wicker table. She will have to wait until I die for that.

I've seen some window commercials on TV and they sure are expensive. Ugh! Cousin #2 does sound like quite a piece of work. Some people are just takers, not givers. My Bing comes right up. I wonder what's going on with yours.
You can probably use that phone. It will just take some time for it to charge up again.

Firefox and Bing seem to have fixed themselves. I was able to use them pretty quickly today.

If you want to keep the furniture tell her no.

Why are you crying? You don't want to give up your wicker furniture? Is she bartering her services to you for furniture?

No she bullied me into it. She says we had a conversation in which I told her she could take it. We didn't. If I disagree with her she will go all Jekyll and Hyde on me.

I'd like to replace some of my windows but fear the cost.
Will Cousin #2 return the wicker pieces, or does she just assume it's her right to take them?
