Today we spent all afternoon at the Verizon store. This was where my wish came true. I am so excited. I got a new DROID phone. I can text now. My friends will be so excited. They thought I was pretty antiquated.
Don got one too. At first he acted like he didn't need one but I think he is going to love it. We have a lot to learn about it but that is the fun part. A new gadget.
We finally got out of the store at 5:30 and I still had errands I needed to run. Took Don home and headed to Sam's to get gas and some supplies. When I got to the checkout my credit card was declined. I had her run it 3 times and each time declined. I was so embarrassed. I had just used it at the gas pump and it had worked. I didn't have a check with me so I called Don and told him and he said he would bring me a check. As I was going to the car it dawned on me that I had just picked up $200 at the ATM. What an idiot. I guess I was so upset I didn't remember I had cash in my pocket.
When Don called mastercard they indicated they had called a couple of times in the morning about a fraud alert and hadn't heard from us. We had charged some on the internet for a timeshare in the morning and they had flagged it. Then when we spent several hundred in the afternoon for phones and hadn't heard from us they closed the account down. Everything was fine with the account and now I can once again use that little plastic card. What a relief!
