Somehow I lost my phone Friday after work.... 😮‍💨
Then as if that wasn't bad enough, after I purchased a new phone from Wally's today I managed to leave that phone on the counter at my bank.
Even though I did recover the new phone at the bank, I had a very stressful day.
Of course there seem to be quirks to the new phone which will take me a while to get used to. 🙄

What do you expect? It's winter 🥶 in the northern hemisphere...
I have a date with Bambi... When? IDK 😶 but I drive 100 miles in the dark through wilderness semi wilderness areas, so the odds are very much against me never having a deer cross the road too close for me to avoid.
Given the current automobile I drive, that will probably be deadly for both me and Bambi.

I didn't get anything written for Valentine's Day... Indeed due to my usual manic states I was pretty severely depressed on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday of this week. I had about a hundred words thought up for a possible Valentine's Day story. However I found it to be very flat when I wrote them down...

I wonder, do other authors have that experience? I think up a scene, it seems enticing while I hold it in my mind, but when I write it down it's as if all the life and light goes out of it....

I'm pretty much giving up on recovering three or so weeks worth of work on an in progress story. At least I had only lost approximately 1-2% of the total (not counting some proofreading I'd done) of the story. With any luck I will have a reasonably sized novel complete for publication this year. Yes I plan on putting it here, probably in the premium column and if I can find appropriate artwork on bookappy. I've wavered some about putting it on Kindle... But for now I don't intend to support Jeff bezos.

I know that I've asked before, and probably downloaded, about a tool for recovering a corrupted file.
Anyway if someone could please recommend a tool for recovering corrupted file again I would appreciate it.
