Andrews New Do

This morning I took Andrew over to Rome’s for a haircut and I got one myself. I had been looking a bit shaggy lately and I wish I had gone before Christmas. My hair was far too long. But, I have been sick for a while and I did not feel like getting it done before this. I have also never been to Rome’s before. Allison has taken Andrew and my dad has been going there for some time. I had a good experience and they even shaved the back of my neck with a razor so I know it was done right.

We got all cleaned up and then headed to Mansfield Crossing to to get new cell phones. Allison and I have been Verizon customers for so long and when I did some shopping around I saw that we could make out really well if we switched over to Xfinity Mobile. So we went to the Xfinity store and signed up. Allison went with the iPhone 11 and I decided upon the Google Pixel 4XL. It is so close to my previous phone, the 2XL. The new phone has some interesting new features to get used to. Some of the ways I used the old one cannot be done with the new one but some really cool new things can be done like unlocking the phone with my face. It also have dual cameras and can do some fun photography. I love portrait mode and captured this one of Andrew in his new haircut.

Today Allison’s parents Dan and Marcia headed home after their week in New England. They head back to th sunny warmth of Southern Florida. We are looking forward to our trip down to visit them at the end of February/beginning of March.

I drove them in to the airport. But not before we took a few more photos.

Logan was pretty easy to get to and back from today. There were very few cars on the roads, probably because they were all at mall parking lots or back safe in driveways on Black Friday. We made it to the airport in plenty of time and I headed home. Along the way I stopped at the new Patriot Place shopping center that is on the grounds of Gillette Stadium. I wanted to see what Circuit City had left for deals. Nothing was what they had left. Oh well.

I ended up doing some Black Friday shopping from the comfort of our home by the warm glow of an LCD screen. I first of all bought 2 SanDisk 2GB microSD cards with miniSD and SD adaptors. I also picked up 2 Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headsets and two iGo power tips. I got one to charge the Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headsets and one to charge the LG EnV phones what we will be buying in January.

Yep, we are making the plunge to new phones and a whole new cell phone plan that will include VZnavigator, and all the other VZ things. The most important thing for me is the 2MP camera in the phone and the ability to send unlimited pix, flix and text. With all the Utterz stuff I’ve been doing lately I went over my number of texts with my current plan. I only have a 50 text limit out of network. Thanks god I won the Mobile Award from Utterz. It will be great to have unlimited text, pix and flix.

So if I use my blog as a side business and I use my mobile phone to mobile blog for said business, can I deduct my calling plan as a business expense?
