I actually managed to get a few things done today, and that is, well amazing. Usually on Sunday’s I have all good intentions of getting stuff done, since it is my only day of the week off. But usually something manages to come up and prevent me from doing so. Well not today. I have actually managed to sell my old BlackBerry Pearl, which is something that I have been meaning to do since it is of no use to me any longer. And I managed to get all my errands (shopping, etc..) done before noon. I also finally got around to transferring many gigs worth of digital video of our camcorder and onto the PC. Some of the video had been on there for 4 months. Not to mention I cleaned out the memory cards on all 3 of our digital cameras.

I actually feel like I got a lot done today, and that was in spite of the snowstorm we had today. Of course now comes the fun part, we have to give three dogs a bath tonight. But at least that will be one less thing hanging over my head that has to get done.

Well last night I did it, I went down to the local Cingular store to look at phones and shop around a bit. I ended up leaving with a new phone for me…the BlackBerry Pearl. When I looked at it online I wasn’t sure I was going to like it, but after trying it out in the store I was very impressed. It is a huge step up from the 7250 I was using and has so much better reception. I was just going to get the one phone for me for right now, and move my wife over next week, but the store gave me such a good deal (practically gave me the phones) that I moved my wife over to and got her a Motorola RAZR. I couldn’t be happier with the switch or with my new phone.
