Aaargh! Being a dribbling idiot adds a lorra lorra stress to life. And if you\u2019re already stressed to atomisation point, dat ain\u2019t good, bwoss!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m in a stressed out depression at present, on and off. And every time I lose or misplace something it becomes a calamitous panic that sends my PTSD style \u2018Nam Vet\u2019 type cortisone overload off the scale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I lost my primary pair of testacles\u2026 er, spectacles, a few days ago. And then this morning I couldn\u2019t find my secondary iPhone. And the latter I\u2019d just been prepping for taking to Fonetek, to have a new battery and screen fitted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the end, after the stress panic subsided a little, I recalled that I\u2019d been letting the iPhone battery drain off its charge, and it was stuck in alarm mode; the broken screen preventing me from turning the alarm off, I hid it under some pillows. Forgot. And then panicked!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whilst looking for this iPhone (an oldish 6S), I found the lost specs, on the gravel drive of our front garden. Crushed, bent, dirty, and yet, remarkably, not actually broken. Whether they can be fixed or not, I don\u2019t know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having found the iPhone, I\u2019ve taken it to Fonetek, where they\u2019re replacing both screen and battery (as well as a broken back on an even older iPhone 4). I\u2019ll pick them up later. I\u2019m hoping having the 6S as a backup to my SE2020 (or whatever my newest one is!?) might be helpful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The older iPhone? Might sell it, if it\u2019s worth anything. Or poss use it as an MP3 player for drum lessons? Hmmm!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of the stress associated with this sort of idiocy is o my compounded by the state of mess and clutter that totally dominates our domestic life. And that is a fundamental failing I need to address in real earnest<\/em>: this Spring a Spring Clean is, quite possibly literally, a matter of life n\u2019 death!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Aaargh!
