last night I had to check my cell, as I was reminded that the daughter and the hubby kept saying your cell is going to not accepting calls at this time…hmm…it is a refillable prepaid and it stopped back on the 20th, ha so I added more air time before I went to sleep. I don’t use my cell often..so I would say I don’t need life support…

It’s a constant struggle to maintain that balance, no two ways about it. I’m not at IV status, thank goodness, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t use the darn device more than I should….
