Above is a picture that our son took of me with his iPhone before I knew what he was doing. I’m really talking on the phone. By the way, I’m thankful for corded phones because if I can’t find either of the cordless phones, I always know where the corded one is located!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope you come back and visit soon. Leave a comment if you have time – I’d love to hear from you!
