This sounds like you have been living Murphy's Law most of your life, that if something can go wrong, it will. The one that made me smile was the ferry terminal assistants asking when your travel plans were, so they could go another day and hopefully have no problems that seem to follow you nearly every time! Some of the supermarket lines are so unpredictable, so I relate to your dilemma there. Stores have cut way back on accepting checks now that I just keep them for poetry contests. And to help someone move and lose your phone over it just sounds like the last straw. Thank you for sharing, though, since it makes this reader count her blessings.

Hello Crystie,
thanks so much for the wonderful review gal. Like I said, if it had been an Iphone or some such thing, I would have pursued looking through all the bags, boxes and drawers for it, but it was cheap and I didn't have any valuable information on it except friend's phone numbers. When it happened I remember a saying to the effect of -let no good dead go unpunished. It wasn't that big of a deal, but something that I've pretty much come to expect will happen. With that in mind, you would think I'd be more careful.
Have a blessed evening gal.
Tom

Well...I guess you could always invest in a Velcro carrying case of some kind, ha ha. Then maybe the phone would stay put in one place.

That's true, if I didn't lose the case. Twice, or perhaps three times I dropped the phone out of my front pocket when I was on the boat. Once it hit the concrete dock and broke, once I dropped it into the bilge with all the oil and saltwater and fish slime and blood, and I think I dropped it into the bay. I'm a slow learner.

Oh my goodness. That is so unlucky.
