During a recent trip to San Antonio, my family and I faced unexpected weather. It was cold and dreary, and we weren’t prepared! Had we checked with Cha Cha, we would’ve known what to expect.

16I heart Pandora!
I’m a BIG music fan. If I had to choose between TV and music, I would definitely choose music. I downloaded this new app on my Bold called Pandora. It’s a music application, and I am loving it! It helps create your own “style station” of music. So, for example, you can put an artist’s name in and it will create a playlist for you and include similar tunes by different artists.
You can also skip ahead if a song comes on that you don’t like. Speaking of songs, have you heard the song called “Sissy’s Song” by Alan Jackson? Even if you don’t like country music, you will love this song. It is the most beautifully written song I’ve heard in awhile. It hits home for me as it was played at my aunt’s funeral last week.
Pandora is my new thing. I’m sure I’ll have more faves to come soon since the Blackberry app store (www.blackberry.com/appworld) just launched. If you haven’t checked it out, you must! Oh, and don’t forget to check out “Sissy’s Song” and tell me what you think.

Think about this – we use our cell phones to wake us up in the morning (alarm), remind us of appointments (calendar), store our memorable moments (file storage), exchange messages (e-mail and texts), create documents (Word), access the Internet (browser), and many other ways throughout our busy days.
So, when my sister punished her son (my nephew) for using his phone to access the Internet instead of waiting to get home to use his computer, I thought about the importance of teaching our kids to embrace technology as we teach them self control. To avoid extra charges, I recommended my sister get him a limited data plan (if you use AT&T, check out AT&T Smart Limits) to allow Internet access on his phone. By getting this plan, he could utilize this cool technology while keeping his usage within the structure of a comfortable payment plan. This way, he’d be armed with a technology tool and my sister’s self-control message would be enforced.
What do you think? Would you have taken a different approach?
