W called and asked me if I got a new phone. I said” yes” and she replied, “so you can text now” and I replied, “yes I can”. Then she went over some very trivial logistics. IMO, it didn’t require a call to me. I brought up the fact that I sure am really glad our daughter no longer had her persistent cough that had lasted for months.
Maybe she was probing to see if I received her text, who knows. Then we ended the call by her saying “we should probably talk soon”. She had a somewhat serious tone and I said “sure, no problem”. And that’s that!
