I need to go get a new iPhone and I need to get it from Verizon and pay the penalty to cancel my contract with AT&T. This all sounds like too much trouble. I am nearly tempted to sign another two year contract with AT&T just to avoid all the hassle. Last night at the Homeowner's Association Board meeting, I talked with a man who had done just what I had - canceled his contract with Verizon so that he could get an iPhone and then was stuck with AT&T for two years. He was proud that he waited out his two year contract and could now switch.
I have done many stupid things in my life just because I wanted to "avoid the hassle." Someone once told me that alcoholics are lazy. I am not sure I agree with that. It takes a lot of hard work to drink alcoholically - it definitely is NOT the easier softer way. Getting sober was a tremendous relief after all that work! Every day seemed so EASY!
But even after years of sobriety, I sometimes don't want to deal with things in the right way. I want to side-step and circumvent. I want to avoid. I want to procrastinate.
Recovery is the work of a lifetime. And that's the good news!
The grace of God is a wonderful thing.

Snow already? I thought you were still in autumn -- wrap up warmly and take care.
Geez, my town would shut down for a week if we got 6" of snow in October! I sympathize about AT&T, but making the switch is worth it if you're having trouble with dropped calls and stuff like that.
The snow sounds wonderful. I would like to visit Denver and be in some snow! It is beautiful though here--sunny and cool.
I still have ATT--it is the devil I know I guess. None is really good but the iPhone rocks.
Have a good day, MC.
Stay warm.
And serene.
My Mom had a snow day today! (she lives in Thornton & works in Greeley) I guess it's comin down - stay safe!
I can relate to the 'avoiding the hassle'. I'm in awe at what I'll endure rather than confront something
I went to bed with one fan blowing in my face, a ceiling fan and the AC on.
