How I Saved my iPhone from its toilet bath
When my iPhone slid out of my pocket and into the toilet last Thursday, at first I did panic! But I scooped it out of the water as soon as I saw it. I took it out of the leather case I had it in.
I turned the phone off and dried off outside water.
I called iPhone support (on a friend’s phone) and couldn’t figure out how to get the SIM card out. I couldn’t find the small hole in the top to stick a paper clip into.
I was trying to poke a paper clip into the earphone jack hole!
A friend was able to get the SIM card out.
I kept the phone turned off.
Another friend suggested putting it into a Ziplok bag of dry rice overnight.
I thought, “What the heck. Can’t hurt!” so that is what I did.
Next morning (probably about 12 hours later), with baited breath, I put the SIM card back in, tapped the phone to remove all the rice, and turned it on.
IT WORKED!
I don’t know if it was the quick action of removing it from the water, or the dry rice or what – but I don’t care – I didn’t have to buy a new phone!

2008 Drive for the Cure for Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research
Today I drove a BMW Coupe for the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer research. I love doing this! BMW is such an awesome company for donating to the research, too! This drive had a special meaning for me this year since my 39 year old niece, is overcoming breast cancer right now! So I gladly participate in this very worthwhile event.
The 2008 Hometown Hero is Stephanie Stanland. She is a 3 year breast cancer survivor. A mother of two young boys, she has gone through a lot with surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. But, she has had a very strong faith and support system with her family, friends, and church members at Immanuel Baptist. Stephanie heads up the Thursday Group which is a long time organization for breast cancer survivors. She also has participated in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life and the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Race for the Cure. She has also created a comedic character called Miss Petunia where she entertains many organizations talking about her battles with breast cancer. She feels that laughter can be the best medicine in fighting this disease.
