If they ever did it like DH and I did, we would just have the call on while doing our everyday things :) Nice feeling, like the person is there with you.

I was noticing the time some spend on the phone...9 hours :eek: 26 hours skyping!!!??? :eek: :eek: :eek: I was feeling guilty for 2 hours at a stretch...plus sometimes I phone on my cellphone that does not have int'l calling plan on it so my bill can sometimes be $$$ because most of the time we communicate by texting. We are able to see each other e/o weekend and we just "make it work" :-\
Morning NicAnn!

I had the same dilemma with expensive charges on cell bill at first...(I'm talking about for just 1 min. calls) then I discovered smartreach and it's been really good!! All prepaid so no unexpected bills!!

I'm gonna guess she has bluetooth. I don't have one but I got a headset I use to walk around. I do reallly need a bluetooth set.
We use headsets too. I've been too lazy to get bluetooth but i'm sure it would help.

we have been living together now for almost 7 years some of our best communication is when we are on the phone still. I feel like I get better focus from him or we go on long drives... he can't get out of talking and no tv to distract...lol

So true!! We have such good communication all because of the phone!! One time I was trying to have a serious discussion with him and he has attention deficit when the TV is on. So I asked if he could turn off the tv so that he could focus on what I was saying. He says "sure babes, no problem, TV off".

2 mins later, I said " Mr. Halfmoon, can you not turn the TV on mute and actually turn if off?" :-X

Can't live without my headset!! I bought the ant bluetooth however, we speak so much that the battery can't keep up which is the annoying part.

hahaha.. it's funny how they don't realize we have eyes everywhere...lol
about 5 months before I moved down to the US to get married my sister and I moved out from NS to southern Alberta and our cable channels were the same ones that my husband had even though there was an hour time difference so we were able to watch tv together over the phone.

It's impossible if his focus is on TV. He says "yes baby, I understand" when I haven't even asked him a question!! :eek:

That is an AWESOME picture.

I finally mailed out my fingerprints again. The FBI better accept them THIS TIME. I included two cards, their rejection notice, and a full color copy of my passport page (this wasn't requested, but I gave it to them to make sure they can ID me!). On the PP pic, I wrote "If my fingerprints are rejected please return them this time per my finger print tech!" Jerks!

If not, I may drive to WV and knock in their front door.

If everyone hasn't figure out yet, I'm a total fatty. I made myself french fries with cheese and beef topping for lunch. Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom.
