At night I unplug the phone because too often I was woke up by the ghost caller. I also have a wall calendar, a pocket calendar at my desk and a calendar on the bulletin board at work. I do use my calendar on my cell phone but I like the paper ones better. The wall calendar I make of family photos, the desk calendar I get from my oncologist and the work calendar is monthly I print off.

Our children tell us that we need to get into the 21st century because we don't have 'smart' phones, just the plain old cell phones that make and receive phone calls ... and take the occasional picture. We don't text or surf the internet on them. Heck, we still have computers with monitors and towers.

I also loathe the telemarketers, but we came up with a great solution--my husband is really good at imitating voices, so you never know what (or who) you are going to get on the answering machine. This month we have Foghorn Leghorn answering the phone. This always throws the telemarketers off--they actually stammer something and hang up. You should try it. However, that guy who repeatedly called you? THAT is creepy as hell--I would have reported his ass. Last but not least---I just can't deal with the butt dials from my kids--I really DON'T want to know what they are saying or doing--I quickly hang up when I get those calls!! I do have a cell phone--brand new b-day gift from the Hubs, but it sits with cobwebs growing all over it because I am too lazy to figure out how to use it (sigh).
