Have you ever had someone get very upset with you because you didn't answer your cell phone? Well, I must admit that I am pretty bad about it too. I leave it in my car, my purse, on the counter and miss a lot of calls by not wearing it on my side.
With all this talk about cell phones causing cancer...maybe I should just get rid of it.
A cell phone is for my convenience, not everyone elses. I have had the same cell phone number for years, so a lot of people have it. Unfortunately!! For example, I am right in the middle of my Sunday nap last Sunday and my cell phone continues to ring. The person kept leaving messages, so betwee the rings, it was beeping with messages. It really was trying to get my attention. It was very annoying, to say the least. Finally, very distrubed, I got off my easy chair to attend to my cell phone that is beeping and ringing and calling for my attention. I know that if it is one of the kids, they know the home number and Bill's number. If they really need to get us, they will try the other numbers. Who is needing my attention?
Well, it was a business call. Not only did I have to stop my napping, I had to get in the car and come to the work place. Two dumbies had parked Uhaul trucks in front of the gate at work and a semi was here to deliver the "Auto Trader" magazine into a storage unit and he couldn't get through. He was not a happy camper. I actually had to move 3 trucks so he could get through. The u-haul truck drivers were all men. Now I could see a woman parking in front of the gate ...but a man? Come on now. Oh, well, so much for the Sunday Afternoon nap.

BIG Brutus
We recently visited "Big Brutus." This was out close to Pittsburg, Ks where we were for 3 days while my husband was in training. We went to see it one evening after supper only to find it was closed. There were signs and fences up that you were not to trespass and all trespassers would be prosecuted. Well, my husband was dying to see this big digger. So, over the fence he went. I nervously watched for cars and policemen. Finally a couple guys from his class came and they also climbed the fence to see the big beast. So, while I stood guard, they took pictures and had a good time on Big Brutus. Apparently years ago, there were mines that this big guy dug out. They left them and they are now filled with water. The water looks pretty deep. They almost look like canals everywhere. It was very interesting.
