Texting

Two posts in one day I just could not resist. I need to talk about texting! I got a new phone about a month ago and I had the texting feature turned on. OMG it is controlling my life. I set my phone on my desk when I come into work and it starts blowing up with text messages. I try to sit and ignore it but it does get the best of me LOL. So I then look and respond. Yesterday I was at work and decided to just put it away because it is seriously distracting. I love it for the fact that if I need to tell you something I can just say what it is I need to say and nothing more and I don't need to hear anything you say LOL. The kids all have cell phones with texting too so we can all be sitting in the Great Room watching TV and my phone goes off and it is my son from like 2 feet away from me. It cracks me up but at the same time it is consuming me!!!! Does anyone else have this issue???
