My New Gadget

THiSISIT.....So I haven't been on the blog for a good couple of weeks as have been so busy what with work and family etc.   Oh, who am I kidding, I actually succumbed to an iphone.  Not really my choice.  I was given my husbands phone as he got a new iphone.  The contract ran out on his, so I was entitled to an upgrade 1 hour at least later in the shop, left with a new  smartphone.  alas not an iphone.  but no worries because within less than 24 hours, my husband was back at the shop.  "My wife didn't get on with the phone given, can we change it for the iphone 3"  so yes I know have one.  (oops 3GS apparently this is important.

So my lack of blogging is down to this iphone.  In my previous blog I mentioned about becoming easily addicted to my daughters game on the laptop.  OMG I promise you the iphone is so much more addictive.   I have tried to control myself.  I am looking for the free games and in a couple of weeks have only purchased one game at a mere 69p!!

As a family we have almost overnight become addicted to the laptop, iphone, wii, DS and anything we can get our hands on that is electrical.  This is so not good.

I convince myself that I am not addicted to the iphone, the only games I have are mystery games, grissly manor (good game) and lost city and my 2 children like them.    but have now loaded temple run.  HELP me. I have had conversationswith friends regarding these games and have found that they too are addicted.  What is happening not only to me but them as well!!

The final straw tonight, which has made me go on the laptop, (yes another electrical device, but this is for a good cause).  Matt (husband) and I waiting for a dinner to cook.   Children put to bed.  Both of us in the kitchen near the oven, me leaning on the kitchen sink, Matt on the breakfast bar.  Neither talking to each other, Friday night, glass of win each, great music playing.    The end of the week.

I look at him and say "my god the art of conversation is certainly not dead in this house"  neither of us are speaking to each other.  I am trying to beat my last score of temple run and have just fallen off the edge and Matt I find out later is on Twitter!!!!!

Is this our life for Friday nights.  The dinner is now done.  he has come off of the iphone to dish up, I will be finishing me blog.....  There must be help out there.  do I give up the iphone, or ban myself from the games.  I am not an addict, I am not an addict, I am not an addict...... This is it.
