Just when you think it can't get worse (Good Update)

 My phone just froze up. It's not responding to any buttons at all. I charged it overnight, used it this morning when I woke up. Put it on the side table for less than an hour, maybe and when I picked it up again it was a blank screen. No response. Okay go plug it in again and it is now frozen on the logo screen for Samsung. Haven't dropped it, it is a hardware issue not phone service account so it's not like they turned off my phone due to non-payment. 

I have been keeping my food and output logs on a notepad app and wasn't able to back it up because of incompatibility with computer. Needless to say I do not have the money for a new phone and did not have insurance on it due to breaking three phones consecutively last year. A reasonably good new phone is going to be about $250 out the door and that's a modestly new phone with a case and insurance. At least I was able to find what model it is due to saving the user manual for the previous one on my computer. Big help that is though.

As usual this is in the catastrophic situation category. I have $85 in the bank that is not enough to cover all the remaining bills for the month either. What other way could my year conceivably end on than catastrophic right? Needing a new phone for Christmas present was not on my list.

Doctor is going to ask what my bio output has been like the past few weeks and I'm going to have to guess and give rough estimates rather than having a detailed account.  

So, no phone calls or messages until further notice. Only access to anyone is on computers. 

It seems it was an update apparently because it's all good now. I HATE 'automatic' updates without any warning. 

See, like I told someone. When in all is lost in despair and doubt, run in circles scream and shout. Then, come back to the problem and realize you were a ninny.
