Mom says she is frustrated. She has been trying to get someone from the cell phone company to answer some questions about switching plans. It has proven to be difficult. She tried to chat, but that didn't work. She then just switched plans online and found that she lost her credit for autopay. She then called and after wading through multiple questions from a robot, she held for ten minutes. The representative then set her up again for autopay and said the $20 credit was applied but it is not showing up. She called back and she was told her new plan does not qualify for the credit. 😩 She is still saving money, but not as much as she had hoped.
The folks are participating in a Citizens Police Academy here starting tomorrow. Mom did it a few years ago, but Dad didn't. She missed two classes because Joey was sick one week and then he died the day of her last class, so she is taking it again. This time it is via Zoom. She has had a frustrating time setting Zoom up via their Fire Tablets. She has a laptop but they both need to be signed in to get credit for the classes, so the Fire Tablets are the way to go. She thinks she has it figured out now. She will invite Dad to a meeting later to see if is working.
The folks went to the grocery store today. It was the first time they have gone together since last March. They have been doing curbside pick-ups but Mom started running in after she became fully vaccinated and just picking up a few things. She usually goes early in the morning. Dad is not an early morning person, so when they went, it was crowded. She bought four pounds of apples and she dropped them and they went all over the place when she was checking out. 😂
They then went to Popeye's Chicken for lunch. Mom normally loves their chicken sandwiches, but something went wrong today. They loaded it with sauce and it was a tough sandwich. She only ate half of it. She didn't even save any for me. I didn't even get a fry. 😒
Work was supposed to begin today for our new roof but it didn't happen. We live in a high rise and it was too windy for the crane to take the materials up to the roof. The materals are now in the parking lot and all the parking cones are being blown around. High winds are not unusual for us since we live on the coast.
The cheesecake turned out good. This month's cheesecake is a pecan caramel cheesecake. The crust is pecan sandies and the pecans on top are toasted. Mom makes her cheesecakes in the Instant Pot.
