We just got new cellphones. I sent this email to friends & family: [View all]
We have finally been dragged, kicking (not too high) and screaming (OK, whimpering) into at least dipping our toes into the 21st century.
We no longer have a 'family' cellphone.
We each have our very own.
Hers is red, mine is black.
No they're not 'smart' phones.
They're dumb phones.
They don't connect to the internets.
They don't surf the web or play Angry Birds.
They do take photos, but we can't send them anywhere.
We still don't text.
Did someone say 'Luddite'?

But we can make and receive phone calls.
Which about all we wanted, anyway.
Miz t.: XXX/XX-XXXX
Me: XXX/XXX-XXXX
Also new for us: We'll try to have then 'ON' most of the time, not just when we need to call someone.
We don't have unlimited minutes, so still use the land line for extended conversations. At least one of us is usually home.
