New Dentist, Visiting, Citrus and That Darn Debit Card

Making videos

Cell phone woos

Last night I worked on making some videos of the new peeps. I especially wanted to figure out how to make what YouTube calls shorts, with my cell phone. My problem with the cell phone is reception where I live is very weak to none because of the hills and the big trees so I’m not very good using it like I am with my computer. That means it gives me quite the time when I do try to do something with it. :O)

Shorts

So one of the things I wanted to do was see if I could remember the steps to make a short video, so I did two of them, but alas, no, I can’t remember the steps and will likely forget the ones I do remember by the next time I try to do one so I better do one again soon.

Shooting peeps

Anyway, the new peeps gave me some good stuff for some videos and most people like to watch new peeps so I went out and shot some videos with  my phone and  my video camera to make one of those too, another thing I’m learning and trying to improve on as I go.

New videos at YouTube

Here’s the two shorts of the new peeps.

Today’s doings

Today I had a dentist appointment for cleaning around noon so I went off to that. My dentist just sold her business so there’s all new people there that I have to train.

For instance she started to put the heart pressure gauge on my wrist and I said . NO.

I said I have White Coat. You are wasting your time and my time. To compensate, I take my own at home many times. She said, what is it, 120/60/60. Good.

She hands me a bag of goodies as I’m leaving. No thanks, most of that stuff has corn stuff in it, just give me a soft brush. Thanks.

I will say she did a very good job de-scaling my teeth.

My next step will be to educate the new dentist but that’ll be another time. :O) I’m not one of those people that just sit in the chair quietly.

Visiting and citrus fruit

From there I went over to visit my older brother mostly for a visit as I don’t get up to see him much and also because  he has a lot of real good citrus, much better than you can get at stores.

So we shot the bull for a bit and talked about his medical problems.

Tasty things

Then  we went out into  his citrus grove and he filled that white bag up with tasty things.

He has a variety of fruit to chose from. A lot of it had already been picked by my other brother Tom to sell at the farmers market.

Gas and shopping

I left with my bag of goodies stopping to visit another friend but he wasn’t home so I continued on to the  town of Guerneville where I wanted to get gas and do some shopping.

That darned card

I went to the bank first as I needed them to unlock my card as I used the wrong password a while back and they locked it up. The guy unlocked it and I went to get gas and I still couldn’t get that darn card to work with either of the two pins I use so it got locked again.

Darn card again

I used another card successfully and drove back to the bank to get it unlocked again and find out why none of my two pins worked. I was sure I only used two pins and neither would work. So they will send me a letter in the mail with my pen number so I can get into my account. I was sure it was something they did.,,,,,,,,,,But. :O)

It was me

Once home for a bit and taking it easy chair hopping I remembered once I wanted to sign into  my account and they made me change my pin. I wrote it down in my book but used too much code and didn’t see it and forgot about doing it. I only changed one number but that was enough. My goal is to get all my stuff down to one pin. That’s all an older person can handle. :O)

Anyway I puttered around the yard for the rest of the day.

Nice day.
