When on earth did I get so dependant on my cell phone? Since I have lived the bulk of my life without one I am surprised at myself. It is the way I keep in touch with my family, I love texting with my grand kids and I love keeping up with modern technology. But sadly some where I have grown addicted to it. And so the other day I left the house to run to Fort Wayne. I forgot my cell phone. OMGosh! I actually felt naked with out it. Here I am in my old rattletrap car (fondly known as POS) and no phone. I went Thru all the what ifs, what if my car breaks down, what if I run out of oxygen. A couple times I was sure I heard my phone beeping and I reached for it only to remember I left it at home. I always have my phone right with me. All I could think of is how many many people were trying to call or text me. And that maybe I had let them down by leaving my phone at home. I was so stressed out thinking about how I would explain to all my people why I was not available all afternoon. I just knew my kids would be worried about me. I got home hurried into my house. Grabbed my phone. Ahhh sweet relief! And there were NO missed calls, No missed Text messages.
Then I was just sad.

Hah! The Gram the same thing happens to me! I forget my phone when i go into walmart and i the whole time i am so worried that something is going to happen to me and people are going to be calling me and texting me like crazy. So after i'm done i rush outta there to be reunited with my cell....and lo and behold....no missed calls or texts. At this moment, I feel like a loser.
So i text someone to tell them about my story and then i feel better :)
