Can you survive without your cell phone?

What a day!! I hope I don't have another one like this for a long, long time. What was the problem?  I didn't have use of my cell phone today.  I have AT&T and their network was out for the entire day in my area.  I couldn't make or receive phone calls.  I figured out that my cell phone (iPhone) is like my right hand and I was crippled today without it.  We LOVE modern technology when it works - but boy when it doesn't we are NOT happy campers.  I can't help but wonder how did I manage without a cell phone for all those years before they became such an important part of my life and business?  

The network is back up and my phone is working again, and surprisingly, I survived today -knock on wood and  I think I'm going to be alright.

Isn't modern technology WONDERFUL when it's working?  When it's not, since we now take all these magnificent things for granted, we'd like to kill them or throw them out the window.  I just found out that my web site is down - called the company and they said they're working on it.

But, I gotta tell you, my cell phone is like my right hand - especially when I have 3 girls all over the place.  It is a necessity.  Thanks for your post.

Debbie,   Having your website down is really just as bad as not having your phone working - I hate it when that happens as well.

Hard to imagine a day without mine.  It is essential for business, personal and safety any more.  I'm glad you survived okay - a whole day ... WOW!

I had the same problem with my Iphone about a month ago also and you are right, it was amazing how frustrated I was getting not being able to contact people.
