LeeRichards 177238 Report post Posted March 3, 2015 Well to start off the highlights I must describe the month fromHell. After coming home from an amazing two weeks away with family I discovered that while I was away my oil furnace had self imploded. It shot soot and smoke throughout the entire house and it got into everything - clothes, cupboards, covered furniture drapes and walls and ceilings. At that point it has shut itself off therefore freezing every pipe in my home. I then managed to come down with my first flu in 20 years despite having had the flu shot as I always do. Then I found myself scheduled for rather serious surgery out of province. AND The Habs are in 1st place in that division So, where are the highlights? My insurance company is covering the soot damage from the furnace implosion. The estimate is close to $20 K and every single thing is being washed and cleaned and apparently most or all of the interior will be repainted. Insurance will not cover the many burst pipes because I had the house checked every two days rather than every day. So learn from me and be sure to have your home checked daily if you travel. My plumbing is now all done and though I had to rip out one ceiling and one wall to access pipes I still got away lucky. The flu shot must have helped a bit because that flu came and went quickly and was not overly serious. The surgery was done last week in Halifax and it seems to have gone amazingly well!! I have a two month recovery period so I shall have to learn to be still and quiet and rest. I suppose I can do that. Try it MN2, you might like it! So a long story but ultimately I will have a clean bill of health and will have my spring cleaning done for me from top to bottom. Whoo Hoooo. :) Is that ALL ??? Jaysus Man !!! Glad to hear thinks worked out and are tickety boo :) You always see the glass as half full big guy ! Kudos. ps..... I may have ? added a line to the top part of your post there ? ;) ? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boomer 33202 Report post Posted March 4, 2015 Blackberry recently did a great update to there operating system, and I was really pissed off when my password app wasn't supported. Wrote the developer, and he explained that he was unable to upgrade it to BB10, but he would re publish it as an android app in four or five weeks, which is now supported. Today after three weeks got the upgrade and restored the data from Dropbox. What a relief, was terrified that I'd have to start over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boomer 33202 Report post Posted March 4, 2015 What password app are you using? Sent from my Passport using Tapatalk The password app was Vault, it is fairly simple but has a nice clean interface with good encryption, and is backed up to dropbox. If some one tries to access it more than 5 times the data self destructs and you have to recover it from your back up. You can probably get it the Amazon app store.
