What's worse than the blue screen of death?

The black screen of nothingness, that's what.  My phone died out of nowhere tonight.  I seriously plugged it up for a charge and went to do something with it later and couldn't even power it down.

My fabulous husband has revived it.  Thank goodness!!!  Unfortunately, I lost pretty much everything that was on it before, I think.  

This whole thing has made me realize how crazy dependent I am on this little gadget that I swore I would never need or want.  I kept hitting roadblocks on what I was going to do tonight because my phone was dead, and Joseph was using the laptop to fix it.  I couldn't check Facebook or my emails.  I couldn't pay Kids World or check Aiden's cafeteria account.  I was going to plan my week, and I thought I would post a pic on Instagram - couldn't do that. I couldn't even do my blog post.

I'm glad I have my gadget back.  I don't consider myself obsessed, but it does serve a certain purpose in my world.  I could've live without most of it, of course.  My real concern was that my mom couldn't reach me, if she needed me, and she's home alone this week.  Sadly, I don't have her number memorized in order to call her (from Joseph's phone) to tell her, and he doesn't have their new house number.  Pitiful!!

Oh, and this is why I will probably always have a paper planner.
