| I hope I didn't offend with my post: your initial post states | |
| that your relative is female, which I picked up from the start | |
| -- I wasn't sure about your own gender (if that is indicated in | |
| your post, I missed it). I was just unable to resist remarking | |
| how, in general discourse in very many places in these times: | |
| this is a matter on which it is opined with great frequency that | |
| "in the main here -- men tend to do / be A; women, B", | |

| Just a hint for anyone else who smashes their phone screen, I | |
| also dropped my phone, on cement. There was a spiderweb of | |
| cracks all across the screen, but the phone still worked. I | |
| replaced it because it was older. However, until I could replace | |
| it, I placed plastic cling wrap around it. | |

| I always wrap my television remotes in cling wrap (plastic wrap | |
| for us Americans). Since I live alone, 100% of my meals are | |
| eaten while sitting on the couch in front of the TV (No dining | |
| room anyway - that's where the treadmill is). So, cling wrap | |
| keeps the remote clean of crumbs and icky stuff. Change the | |
| cling wrap when you replace the batteries. This has been | |
| working for me for over a decade. | |

| Limmershin, | |
| I wasn't offended at all. A gender difference may have explained | |
| part of the differences in outlooks. Immediately wanting to | |
| think of a solution to a problem (as opposed to only addressing | |
| the feelings involved) is a tendency I have noticed in myself. | |
