Out With The Old

And in with the new.

NYEBoy and I have been talking about getting new phones since October when the new iPhone came out. We were both due for upgrades, but hadn't taken advantage of them.

In December, my phone started giving me trouble, and we realized we had to pretty much get new phones soon. About a week or two ago, we finally went to Verizon to compare the prices before signing a new contract with AT&T. We went back and forth about what to do, but after realizing we were going to save anywhere from $100-175 a month, we'd pretty much decided to leave AT&T, but we needed a little bit of time to feel comfortable with the decision.

Well, today NYEBoy said we were going to make the switch. And I finally have a new, non-broken phone!! Let's pray it stays that way at least until Monday until the Otterbox gets here. Thanks to Amazon, I saved 60+%!

It's a bittersweet change, though, one I wasn't sure I wanted to make just yet. The first photos I have on my phone are from the first visitation we had with K a month after being granted emergency temporary custody of A.

We were at a local park/lake feeding the ducks. K looks very awkward, slightly uninterested, even. Her hair is greased down tightly to her head, pulled back into a bun. Her outfit is very unflattering. Her pants don't match the shirt at all. In fact, the shirt doesn't really fit her very well. Her necklace is familiar, too. A is wearing a pink Hurley shirt with a black tutu and gray leggings. The day was very pretty, it was October in FIorida, after all.

And here we are, three days away from the two year anniversary of the final court hearing.

A has cracked or dropped in liquid (toilet-1, sonic slush-1) every single iPhone I have had.

I would give anything for her to be here to drop or crack this one this weekend.

iPhones are easier to repair than a broken heart, that's for sure.
