How do I use this thing ?

Thank you "Easter Bunny" for the new phone!  My "old" one was really just fine and only maybe two years old.  But this new one will make many things easier for me, like texting, updating contact information, etc.

But even with all the contact info copied over I still have hours of time to spend in getting this new phone to be like my old one.  I have to reset my settings and ringtones.  I need to take new pictures of all my contacts so their faces will come up when they call me.  I have to set my shortcuts and quicklinks.  The list goes on and on.  Please don't mistake this as complaining.  That would be ridiculous in so many ways.  Our pioneer ancestors would mock me to scorn for such a trivial complaint ... so I am NOT complaining!  Just sharing some of the impact this will have on my current day-to-day experience.

Despite the "challenge" I am so grateful to my parents (especially my dad) for the gift!  My kids had joked earlier in the day that the Easter Bunny didn't bring me anything ... but he did.  And I am very grateful for it!  :)
