I just finished ordering new cell phones for Andrew and I. While this may seem like a common event, it is the reason behind these orders that make this story worth blogging about.
You see, I was sitting around Saturday morning in my big fluffy robe that Andrew bought me for our anniversary a few years ago, when I spilled something on it. So, I decided that I would wash it and Andrew's robe and the few dirty towels I had. I thought it would be nice for him to come home to a freshly cleaned robe! (He was in Atlanta all week and came home Saturday night.)
So, when it came time to put them from the washer to the dryer, I got all but Andrew's robe out and noticed something sitting in the bottom of the washer. You guessed it...my cell phone!
I had accidentally washed my cell phone which had been in my robe pocket all morning! While this proves to be an inconvenience for anyone, it was really a problem for me because we recently got rid of our land line and switched to using just our cell phones.
So, not only was I without a cell phone, I was with out a phone at all!
No way to reach the outside world!
And I'm pregnant!
And paranoid!
So I decided I would go over to my parent's house to use their phone to contact Andrew in Atlanta and figure out what I should do. I hopped in the shower to get ready. When I was done, I reached out for my towel and realized...I had forgotten to get a towel...because I had washed it with my phone!
So, I had to get out of the shower dripping wet and freezing to get a towel out of the closet.
Then, I reached for my robe...but it was not there either! That's right...in the dryer! I decided right then and there to throw a little temper tantrum!
I spent the entire afternoon getting a phone I could use (my smartchip still worked, so I put it in Nancy's old phone until I could get a new one). By the time I got home, I was worn out.
So, today I have ordered a new phone. I will have to re-enter all of my contacts because, of course, they were stored on my phone, not the smartchip. Oh, the joys of losing your mind to pregnancy hormones!

When Emilyann was living with us, she washed and dried her new cell phone - and it still worked! She didn't lose any memory or battery capacity or anything; it was still good as new!
Yes, a cell phone is definitely an essential items when pregnant. New phones are always exciting!
