Cell Phone Moments

Cell phones are great...at least they are becoming great. For a long time I did not want one. They were quite large, expensive and did I really need to be in constant contact with anyone? When I moved to the PNW I started to see a positive side to them. The size of them had shrunk considerably, alot of the PNW is rural and my car was older than myself. In LA breaking down on the side of the road was an inconvenience but there are call boxes everywhere- not here, so I started to see a necessity.

Now that I have a child I would be absolutely lost without my cell phone. My cell phone is not only a lifeline with all my friends, but all MD phone #'s are stored there and with the amazing invention of the camera phone alot of really great moments are captured. Now that Rooney is older and more mobile I do not always keep our digital camera on hand and this slim, pink little phone has picked up the slack wonderfully. Granted some of the pics may be a little grainy and you forget to change settings, so the color may be off, but I would never have been able to get a picture of Rooney "comforting" Courage (on his way home from a vet appointment)in the back seat of my car, with a big bulky digital. That look of frozen fear on Courage's face is not from the vet's office, if you catch my drift.

Here are a few cute pics I was able to capture. These have been taken over the last couple of months and it is saying something to me that most of them are in the car and Starbucks...something like...


Wake up and keep your eyes on the road, lady!
