Family on the Phone

Were you aware July is National Cell Phone Courtesy Month? I wasn’t either. I think they’ll make a National “something” for everything, however, I think this one is much needed. I posted a while back about my pet peeves. Some of this post will be repeating some of that information but I believe it bears repeating.

What can we do to celebrate this Courtesy Month? I think there is much to be done here and I believe also that anyone who uses their cell phone regularly could at least improve on one or more of the items below. Be honest with yourself. How courteous are you on your phone?

Today I am finishing up my Cross Blog Conversation with Alyssa Avant. You can read my most recent question to her and her response here.

For her last question Alyssa asks me this: What is your opinion on cell phones versus landlines? Do you have a landline at home or only cell phones? We recently went to being a cell phone only family and I believe this is the way of the future, what about you?

Alyssa, I do still have a landline but this is for two reasons. First, my internet is DSL and I’ve signed an agreement for a year for that. Secondly, my cell phone doesn’t always get the best reception here in my house.  I do believe having a  cell phone only is the way of the future.

Alyssa, I also want to take this time to thank you for doing this CBC with me. It’s been a pleasure to work with you. I wish you much success in all your endeavors.

I can’t believe my internship with Family on the Phone is almost over. It’s been a fun ride for me. It has stretched and challenged my writing skills. From the time I was little, I have loved the telephone. In fact, communication in all forms is as passion for me. I’m extremely social so my cell phone is like a lifeline for me. I love to stay connected at all times.

Working with Kelly McCausey and the interns at Mom’s Talk Network has been such a pleasure. I couldn’t imagine a better use of my time. Speaking of Kelly, she is an amazing teacher and someone I consider a mentor of sorts. Her website Mom Masterminds has some amazing internet marketing resources for moms and you are able to connect there with other moms there doing the same thing as well. They are celebrating their 5th Anniversary this year, so pop on over there and take advantage of all they have to offer.

Kelly is now offering an opportunity like no other. She is offering a Blog Internship. This is a way for you to learn from one of the best internet marketers in the business. You will learn how to work with Wordpress, learn how to use social networks to promote your blog, understand how to use affiliate marketing, and begin a habit of posting daily. I promise you this experience will change your life for the better.

I hope you will enjoy the last week of my internship and take advantage of the resources I’ve talked about today. Also, do have a lovely celebration of our nations Independence Day.
