Pinay WAHM

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It’s a windy day here today! It was freezing this morning when the husband left for work and right now it’s in the low 40s but I’m sure the wind is making it a lot colder than what the temperature is recording. Anyway, since it’s been cold the past few days the little one and I have been inside the house only. I really want to go out in the backyard and start pulling out the weeds that are all over the place but I’d rather not. So what have I been doing while cooped up in the house? A lot of online surfing. First on my list is a cell phone. Yes, I am looking for a cell phone right now….to replace the land line. It’s not 100% sure yet but after the last bill, I am seriously considering getting one. We didn’t get a long distance plan for our landline simply because we don’t use LD much. Or so we thought.

We are going to give them until tomorrow to straighten things out with their service. After that, I am going to check on unlocked cell phones and get me one. I have had enough of this craziness with the providers around here.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cellular phones or cell phones seem to be a ‘necessity’ for a lot of people nowadays. This is the reason why different companies have special offers for cellphone users all the time. They even offer the top of the line cellphones for free as long as the customer uses their service the coming years…at least 2 years of contract. My husband does not like that. If he needs a replacement or an upgrade for his cell phone, he would usually look for an unlocked phone . It’s a little more expensive but at least he’s not tied up to a company for years. As for me, I prefer the pay as you go deals. I don’t really need a cell phone since I am WAHM and I can be reached through our home phone all the time so using the pay as you go phones is the best choice for me right now. But if I would ever need a cell phone full time, I'd probably go with unlocked phones as well. Just like my husband, I also don't like being tied down to a company for years. I just 'lo...
