Today, I persisted with my efforts to get some computer maintenance done, & actually think I did get my iPhone backed up, at least I think so...
Then realised I could check a setting to fix a problem with how my iPhone was acting as if I don't have Voice Over on when I am typing or entering text or phone numbers... That was a relief.
Then I decided I had enough of trying to figure out why so many of my passwords were not being recognized. ...
(& I just noticed how to make this text field fill in a suggested finish of a word as I am typing. On my keyboard, I use the right arrow to use the suggested word)
... & decided to stop & call someone who might help, thenh have a late lunch of salad sandwich.
Since I want a lot done, upgrade my hardware & software, accessories, the people I called asked me to send more info. I actively decided to finish my lunch before responding to their email.
& then, as if to make up for not having something else to write heare yesterday, I made a couple more emails to send, because I was unaware those people share information about me, soI could recieve a survey & potentially marketing material too... I feel fed up with people assuming they can pass on our personal details for this or any purpose without our direct & explicit consent. These companies that set up & send out surveys for various companies & organisations have a lot of people's information stored, eh? What if they are hacked?
So, I feel I did a little good today, letting those businesses know. I am sure I will make my displeasure known more in the future.
Thursday, I was doing medical stuff. Even got my flu shot, (prepared for possible adverse effects. just in case that happened again), & it was okay. I didn't give up when it seemed the GP was going to dismiss my concerns as just my getting older. Now I have an appointment wit a specialist, although it's not until mid June. I had to also assure her I would pay for a private specialist, even if Medicare doesn't help. Bulk billing very unlikely - I knew that.
I feel a happy vibe reading this thread. I'm proud of the efforts we make, especially when the mood is low, or the confidence is low, & it takes courage to keep reaching out, when it feels so easy to stop, sit & do nothing, which as we know, doesn't help the mood or how we feel about ourselves.
Hugzies all,
