It’s been a helluva week. I’m still getting over my flu/cold. I never knew it was possible to blow your nose countless countless times and go through 3 boxes of kleenex within a two week span. My youngest also got sick and my husband too. Ah, so it goes with flu season. And my poor little iPhone also had a horrible week. Madeline is now successfully potty trained *hooray* but while she was sick one day this week, she decided she would forget how to get up and go to the bathroom. She started crying for me, I picked her up and she proceeded to pee all over me.
A mother’s love.
I wasn’t grossed out at all but I had my iPhone in the front pocket of my hoodie sweatshirt. I think the case protected it so everything was as good as new after some antibacterial cleaning. Then, the very next day, my iPhone, still in the trusty front pocket of my hoodie sweatshirt (what I am always wearing around the house) I bent over near the toilet and the damn thing fell in!!!!
AHHHHHHHHH. . my iPhone.
I immediately picked it up, out of the toilet and was screaming. Don’t ask me why. My husband said “you need to let it dry out in a bag of dry, uncooked rice.” WTH? Surely, something he read on some website somewhere. Apparently it helps to drain the phone better. And then he said the words that no iPhone user ever wants to hear.
“You probably shouldn’t use or turn on your iPhone for at least 48 hours.”
“If there’s water in the phone, you don’t want to turn it on because it might short circuit. .” blah blah. . didn’t really hear anything after that. NOT USE MY IPHONE FOR 48 HOURS? Are you serious? Can I even do this?
Being the iPhone junkie that I am, I didn’t use it for a few hours, turned the thing on and it worked fine. Moral of the story? Never carry your iPhone in the front pocket of your hoodie near a toilet.
So, I absolutely had to end this week with something delightful. Something that would bring a smile to my face.
And something that involved powdered sugar.
I baked some glorious Lemon Blueberry muffins. And I used my new
