Say What I Think

Today I called T-Mobile, I had two problems. One was pretty major in my mind, because I was going to be stuck with a huge overage fee. Lets see overage is 40 or 45 cents, so my bill was going to be close to 48 bucks over. Yeah that not good. My 2nd problem is the last week or so I haven’t been able to receive my husband text, and he me. This is a problem since my husband and I can’t always talk on the phone.
I have went over my minutes because of going back to school and family troubles. I am not seeing my minute usage for a bit staying under 600 minutes, so I needed to figure out what was my best route. Do I get the Fav. five or increase to 1000 minutes. I wasn’t sure what the best fix would be for this so I decided to call in and discuss it with someone.
I will say I am impressed with the Customer Service people at T-Mobile Call center, they listen and take the time to help, and discuss the option. I started out my conversation with, I hope you can help me. After talking to the customer service person I had explained that this month my phone has been used a lot. Between school and my husband parent being sick. I explained that I was calling people in my family or friends when my husband wasn’t around so I could vent some stuff out. She had told me that it sounded like increasing the minutes was my best course of action and that she could back date it. Instead of being close to 50 more this month it would only be 10 more then normal. Okay I can handle that very easily.She answered my questions about the Fav five problem with that is my classes change each month and maybe not at the same time each month. I can change all five of them once a month. She explained it to me which was nice.
Then I brought up the Texting issue with my husband. I found out that Virgin and T-Mobile need to learn to play better together. I asked her while talking to her about it. Can’t you guys just play nicely together, it make life easier for my husband and I. She explained to me what T-mobile was doing which was helpful. I know that T-Mobile is at least trying something. She told me have my husband call the other company and complain to them because it seems like it a problem between us both. Hopefully they will get this problem fixed soon and start working like a well oiled fitness equipment

My husband and I don’t use a lot of steak sauce, because we don’t eat beef. I found out I can have lamb which is nice if cooked right. I think my husband got lucky because I am a very good cook and normally I can figure out what to do with different types of meats.
Normally for my lamb I do a mixture of stuff, and then serve it well done. We do not like rare meat. We didn’t want to spend a bunch of money, so we decided we would try Market Pantry Steak sauce, I want to say we got it from Target.
This sauce is not thick but not liquidity, personally I like the thickness of the steak sauce. It has a tangy taste of it. For being so low in calories I am surprised how high the Sodium is, wow you could float away with the sodium I think. Maybe I aught to get inflatable boats to float away with. There is only 15 calories and 300mg of Sodium. Wow, I would have never thought that, even though it’s tastes good it’s fairly on the unhealthy side for the heart.

I just got done reading “Dead Until Dark” by Charlaine Harris, she was my stopgap between another author and her book in a series. I was at Border needing to find something to read. I like mystery, suspense and romance, romance to a point. Now a good book is when all three get added together. “Dead Until Dark, is about a Vampire named Bill and his human Shookie.
Shookie’s got a problem she’s telepathic, which to say the less makes her life uncomfortable, and well dating just can’t happen. She meet Bill and she can’t read his mind, his mind is blank to her. Naturally she have to be attracted to him right? Shookie, I wouldn’t call her a plain girl but she not exactly educated neither.
Bill is attracted to her but tries to warn her about the danger like most novels with Vampires, they always seem so nice, but they always say they are bad. I think Harris done a great job of showing some of the evils, but she keeps it interesting and even though you know a human and vampire aught not to be together, you want to see Sookie and Bill together.
One thing for sure none of these vampires would be found on Mediterranean cruises, she has the vampires as newly unhidden people in the world. I really have enjoyed the plot line, and the other supernatural characters in her book.
My husband told me her age and I was surprised she wasn’t younger closer to my age, but boy does she right well, and very easy to follow. She had me within the first chapter of the first and second book. The Third book, I think the first chapter was a little harder to get through, sometimes it seems like she trying to explain to first time readers. This is probably a good thing because I can not tell you how many times I have picked up a book in a series and it wasn’t the first one. I have once grabbed the 3rd book in a series and that’s kind of funny. I can tell you I was lost and wish it was explained better.
I would not recommend the “Dead Until Dark” series to a young reader, there are some scenes I wouldn’t want a young reader reading. If I had a daughter, I wouldn’t introduce her to the book until she at least 16 to 18 years old. There is some disturbing things in the book, but I probably find them disturbing because of some personal experience. I don’t find talking about drinking blood or what not disturbing but when things start sounding like rape or is very rough. I don’t know it’s just unsettling.
I will say I am impressed that she does not feel the need to use G-d’s name in a crude manor. I don’t mind an occasional cuss word. Now G-d’s name is one of the thing I just don’t tolerate. Funny I can read Vampire books, and not be at all offended until they start using words that aren’t becoming. Charlaine Shows a ton of Talent with Words because she doesn’t have to get her point across by using a bunch of fowl language. I think her and my other favorite author are right close to running for my favorite author.

Last night my husband and I had to go over to Lunds, normally I am not a very big breakfast person when I am working at 7am. Today I came home early, so I decided I would give this a try. I got the Honey Bunches of Oats with Real Peaches. Wow, normally I am not very big on healthy cereal but usually I enjoy Honey Bunches of Oats. I do have to be careful not to over do it on wheat products, but it quick and easy and didn’t require me to stand a long time on my ankle.
A serving is 3/4 cups and is 160 calories with 1/2 cup of skimmed milk. Since I am allergic to milk I use soy milk which I believe may be less or just a little more then that. I will say I am surprised that the Vitamin received from eating this isn’t higher, it’s got real fruit bites, so it just seems the vitamin should be a little higher. There is no cholesterol which surprised me but the Sodium is a higher then I would like to see.
Fiber is only 2g which is low considering this is main has whole wheat and oats and corn in it.. So it surprising that that all we get from fiber. I am not saying it bad or good but just seems a little low.
There is no calcium in the cereal but I wouldn’t expect their to be. Calcium is a little harder to come by.
Over all the Cereal tastes good it a little bit on the sweet side of the scale, but the peaches really do taste nice. The cereal is pretty crunchy to which is nice.
I was surprised how filling the cereal is, I hope they keep the peaches one in their stock because I really do like it. It’s a nice treat but grant it tonight I have to figure out what to eat that doesn’t have a bunch of wheat in it. I wonder if Hilton Head rentals has this type of cereal for breakfast. It’s was great seeing the peaches in the cereal it added some nice color, and since they made the pieces big enough you can tell what they where unlike some other cereal, were they have fruit but good luck telling it’s fruit and not part of the cereal bits.
