I did it again!

Okay, so I've had some terrible luck w/cellphones this year. LOL, a little over a year ago I lost my cellphone somewhere between my mom's house and ours. Mom looked all over her house and didn't find it; I searched our car and the ground around our house with no luck. We never found any parts in the road, and no charges showed up on our bill. Apparently, it got eaten :). So I had to replace it. But, it was almost 2 years from our initial contract signing, so it didn't cost me any money. However, I lost my phone again in June. And, again, could find no sign of it anywhere- not even calls made by the person who found it... But, thankfully, Jared had just replaced his phone [although he kept the old one], and hated his new phone. I had the Sprint store reprogram the phones, and spent no money ;).
Yesterday, while I was out running an errand, I called my mom. Phone worked fine, I put it in my pocket when I was done, and drove home. Pulled my phone out to make a call, and it was dead. Not turned off, but completely dead. Unresponsive. Jared got it to turn back on, but then the only keys that worked were 3, 6, 9, and "end". Not so good. LOL, of course, it went dead again, and I couldn't revive it. I thought I'd see if it could be fixed, but the repair place said the circuitboard was fried. ??Not really sure *how* that happened [maybe from small child putting phone in his mouth and drooling into it?]. Anyway, I now have my 4th phone in 13 months.
The non-working phone is the silver one. I'm thinking I'll keep it as a Myles toy. Or Jared could use it in one of his evil scientist set-ups.

And, just to make things more interesting, it started to snow about the same time I had to go pick up my un-fixable phone from the repair shop. Big, fluffy, wet flakes of snow. It was absolutely beautiful, and slightly terrifying to drive in. Jared encouraged me to take the Durango [4wd], and I was still slipping.
Of course, since I was already out in the snow, I decided to tempt fate and drive around more- to Barnes and Noble, and the grocery store. :)it made sense at the time...

Oh, the kids are out of school. They're pretty thrilled about it! I'm thinking they can spend tomorrow outside playing in the snow, and I'll try to clean up the house. :) Jared was working on a project, and the kids dragged all kinds of random things upstairs.

One last thing. Since my old phone is no longer speaking to anybody, I have no phone numbers. Please, please, call me [same phone #] and leave me a message so I know who called, and I can re-save your phone #. :)thank you :)
