I am ready to crawl back into bed after the day I had today. 
First off I wake up at 7am because I "thought" I heard my cell phone ring. Never think, it always gets you in trouble. LOL. Then around 9am my friend calls to see if I can take her around to get her oldest daughter enrolled in home school. And she tells me my cell phone is not working. So, I try to call my Magic Jack phone with it, and get the message that my account has been suspended. It is a government phone, why would it be suspended? I didn't have time to check into it then, so I figured I would take care of it when I got back.
So, I take her all over the place, (copy of report card, copy of immunizations, birth certificate etc) and one of the places was near a tow company that had a lot of lien sale cars lined up behind a chain link fence so people could see them, and I just happened to glance at them and saw my old 1991 Ford F350 crew cab dually sitting on the front line. I couldn't believe it was mine since the guy that bought it lived in Visalia (45 miles south of here). I do know he owns his own cleaning business and steam cleans (or pressure washes, I don't know which) supermarket parking lots in Fresno. So that would explain it being up here, but I don't know why it is in a tow yard. It was strange seeing that truck there. They are asking $1,500 for it (I paid $3,600 for it in 2013) and it is missing the white fiberglass bed cover, but everything else seems to be there. I may go there tomorrow and see if they can tell me how they got it. I don't have $1,500 and even if I did, I doubt I would buy it as I have no use for it now, and at best it got 13 mpg (which surprisingly enough was on the freeway headed back up to Fresno with a trailer, and a F250 truck on the trailer. Go figure) and around town usually got between 8-10 mpg.
Anyway, I got home about 3pm, and tried to get my cell phone turned back on. By 5:47pm and calling Safelink Wireless 3 times (my current provider) and Assurance Wireless 3 times (for a phone I got a month ago, but never activated, because it had only 1 bar of signal strength in my house) and California Lifeline 4 times, I gave up. Bottom line is I have to wait 2-3 days for Lifeline to cancel my enrollment with them so I can re-enroll with Safelink. And even if I re-enroll, I may have to wait for them to send me a new phone instead of using the one I currently have. So, I may be without a cell phone for up to a week, I still have the Magic Jack home phone but of course, can only get or make calls while home. And most people don't have that number as I never use it. And was even thinking of cancelling it after the 5 year term is up in 2018. However, after this incident, I think I will keep it since it is only $20 a year for 5 years as opposed to 30 a month for Comcast or Vonage.
So, that has been my day today.
