Have not been having a good time of it lately, but my life was brightened a bit this morning by the local Anna's hummingbird (he lives in a tree across the way) coming to nom for a while on the coral fountain's flowers while I was out watering the tomato plant. 🥰

I have a 1GB data cap for the month on my phone but I set a daily cap on my phone of 25mb (25x31= 775) rather than a monthly one so I literally cant pass the cap unless I manually override the limiter. Use daily caps and leave a margin for emergencies.

At least this way I cant be screwed for the entire month by accident.

(I actually have a soft data cap but its an additional $5 a GB and I like having only a $15 bill at the end of the month - $10 talk/text $5 per GB of data.)

Damn that kind of cap's similar to some of the awfulness that was common here not so long ago.
in reply to LisPi

meh I pay $15 and barely use data anyway I absolutely do not care. I'm on WiFi 99% of the time.
