Without Phone

I can't believe how we have become so reliant on having cell phones. I left my phone at home AGAIN (This is like the 4th time to do this since working at FedEx). But, it is even more of a hassle as I have class tonite & cannot come home until 10:30 pm at least. So, being without phone for almost 24 hours is killing me. It just amazes me how we are so reliant and our world involves communication on-the-go more than ever. How did our grandparents or parents by that matter handle cross-country road trips? Or meeting someone for dinner? What if something extremely important came up? I don't think I have used a pay phone since high school.
And not to mention, I now have an iPhone (which I love!). My grandpa would be amazed at how we can email while driving, while listening to your favorite new song that was downloaded. Or how people text during class? I could go on and on and on...
Anyways, it has been a tough day- I have not talked to my husband once (just emails).
Guess I should get back to my assignment that I have not finished & is due in 30 minutes!

The Pick of the Pictures

Today marks a milestone...first, I am actually picking out & ordering our wedding pictures. For the past 11 months, it has literally scared me to even try to figure out which ones I wanted. I already received my professional book, but I still have the 8 x 10's and 4 x 6's left in my package to pick. It is such a huge decision & requires me to be focused & organized! It has only taken me 4 hours, but I think I am almost done. Now, I just need the husband's approval...

I wanted to also put in a picture from Colorado! We went with my family for a week to Colorado and got to stay & ski in beautiful Breckinridge. Justin even tricked me into going down a BLACK; I prefer the GREENs. I think it took me about 45 minutes to get down, involving many words I probably should not have said. After getting down the trail, or drop off, I went straight into the lodge and had a spiked hot cocoa. Needless to say it was 10:00am, I felt I earned it. Justin proceeded to go down it again-without me. Other than that, the skiing was amazing. Spending time with family is always such a blessing as well.

Happy 2009!!
