The day as planned was not atypical for me; I boarded the bus for the trip into Manhattan with my art group for our museum visit.  Most of the women would then get back on the bus to return to Long Island mid-afternoon, but I planned to see another exhibit at another museum before going crosstown (Uber) to meet Ben for dinner near Lincoln Center where we would then see a performance by a group of Tibetan Monks as part of the White Light Festival.....a perfect day!

But then, as the bus was leaving the parking lot for the city, I realized I did not have my cellphone. As severe Panic set in, I thought of jumping off the bus but we had already gone too far. How could I possibly survive my day without my phone?  How would I call Uber, when and where were we meeting for dinner, and what time was the show??? All the answers were in that phone.

So, here I am guest blogging about this, obviously having survived the day....with some help from my friends,  and Ben.

The question I have is...how did we ever manage without those phones??  Any good suggestions are welcome!
