We have had many major changes in our household lately and one resulted in me having to switch cell phone carriers, because I no longer get adequate coverage with my current cell phone...uggg...I hate having to deal with such issues. Well my dear sweet husband is helping me to make the transition and today I had to turn in my phone that I love. But how good is a phone that has no cell coverage? I was to turn in the old phone and get the new phone later this afternoon, OK not that big a deal....I would be without a phone for a few hours or so, I could survive, right!?!?!
I turned in the phone and left the store feeling so NAKED! It was actually really weird. But like I said I would survive. So what I would have to drive down I-20 and listen to the radio and not chat on the phone, I can do this, so here I am driving down I-20 to pick up our five year old from school and I hear this weird noise that I think...oh no, could that be my tire! And mind you I have only had this new to me vehicle for a few days. I had a car accident about a week ago and was without a car for too long. I was so happy to get a set of wheels again that would get me from here to there. OK, so back to the cell phone, yes the noise and funny vibration I heard and felt were indeed my flat tire!
I was without a cell phone for less than an hour and already needed it for much more than just idle conversation as I traveled I-20! I pulled over (in a construction zone no less) and had to flag down a construction worker in his bull-dozing tractor and ask him could I please use his cell phone. Of course he let me and I called the hubby and said please come rescue me! Which of course he did.
Yes, after all, tomorrow is another day and it will be a GOOD day!
I am the complete opposite. The most I do with my phone is charge it. Thankfully, I have not faced any emergencies like yours, touch wood.
