About 4 months ago our cell phone contract expired and my husband being so "fantastically frugal" just cancelled the phones without getting us new ones. He had visions of saving all this $$ by not having a phone. Then things got interesting.....We went on vacation, with NO phone, so we had to borrowed my Moms. He started traveling....WITH NO PHONE. Couldn't get a hold of him at all. This was just NOT working out. I thought I never used my phone but turns out that I really did I just took advantage of it. So after begging, pleading and pretty much throwing down an ultimatum I finally got Nate to the Verizon store last weekend. We got Droid phones. I guess they are quite fancy and have lots of options. Verizon guy was trying to explain everything to me and I was lost. I advised Nate to learn everything about the phone and then tell me later. I do love that I can now Text, email and browse the internet on my phone. Surprisingly I don't think I have been abusing it. I'm very conscious to put the phone down when I'm out and about with the kids. I found myself at the library being THAT Mom, typing away on my microscopic key pad while the kids played and I shut it down. Although both boys love the phone and all the games they can play on it. I'm hoping it will keep them quite busy on our trip to Florida. Nate is already addicted to his, he keeps telling me how cool it is and how you can do "This" and "That".....I'll take his word for it.
