Before I get to today's post, I have a disclaimer on one of my "this or that" stories from yesterday. Mom wanted you all to know that our family room was in our basement. She feared you might think she made me watch TV next to a furnace in a scary, spider-infested unfinished basement and that was not the case. I knew that, of course, but if you've not been in their home, you don't know that, so I wanted to clarify so as not to besmirch their good names. :)
And now...to today.
I had so much fun with Christmas This or That yesterday (and I had fun hearing your replies in comments and via texts) that I thought I'd play one more Christmas game today! You can play along too, if you want, and tell me your score! Today's game is a Christmas version of What's on Your Phone?
So...pull out your phone and let's play! (I'll show you some of my picture answers along the way.)
Give yourself ONE POINT for each of the following things if you have them on your phone.
* A photo from your camera roll as your lock screen. (Here's the photo I have on my lock screen.)
* You have a video saved. (I do, and here is the most recent one! Ryan was taking it for our one-second-per-day video clip and I didn't know why he was filming so long, so I started making funny faces.)
* A selfie. (I do, and here is the most recent one. Can you tell we had a visitor yesterday?)
* More than ten contacts. (Trust me. I do.)
* Facebook app. (Nope! I deleted it many months ago and have not missed it a bit. I still have Facebook, but it's a very toxic space for me anymore, so I don't interact on there much.)
* Instagram app. (Yep!)
* Picture of your kids. (These are going to have to count, because these are my kids!)
* Family Photo. (Check!)
* Give yourself one point for each person you texted today. Well, today I texted Sarah (my co-worker), Justine (my former co-worker), Mom, Ryan, my friend Amber, both my sisters, and my friend Kari, so that makes eight!
* Game app. (Check! I have had Solitaire on my phone for a while and recently downloaded Wordscapes, too.)
Total points in this category? For me: 18.
Give yourself TWO POINTS for each of the following things if you have them on your phone.
* Text from today with the word Christmas in it. (YES!!!! My mom saved me on this one. She texted me earlier to ask about a Christmas game.)
* Pinterest app. (Of course.)
* Battery is more than 50%. (I had to giggle at this. I panic if my battery goes below 90%. Ryan laughs at me about it. I'm currently at 74% and charging.)
* Saved Christmas gift list. (I'm going to give myself just one point for this. I do have a picture of a list saved, but it's just a general gift list, not a specific Christmas gift list. I did use it to buy a Christmas gift, though!)
* Photo of someone in the snow. (I do! I have a picture from last winter when Ryan was teaching one of our tenants to use a snow blower. She was SO EXCITED!)
* Zero unread text messages. (Check! I try really hard not to have that little red notification, but sometimes I do get behind!)
* Pandora or a music app. (I am probably the only person in the world who does not have a music app or playlist of any kind. I don't use my phone for music.)
* Two or more kid apps. (Nope. Zero.)
* Current to-do lists. (Nope. I write mine on paper.)
* Photo of outside Christmas decor. (I do! My most recent picture of this was from our trip to the Opryland Hotel during our anniversary trip.)
* Photo of baby not related to you. (Are you ready for another picture of yesterday's visitor??)
* Etsy app. (Nope. I love Etsy, but I don't have the app.)
Total points in this category: For me: 15. (It should be an even number, but remember I gave myself just one point on that one answer.)
Give yourself FIVE POINTS for each of the following things if you have them on your phone.
* Photo of your pet. (Well, obviously. See above! But since you probably need to see them again...)
* Zero unread emails. (Sigh. I have sixteen.)
* Ringtone is a Christmas song. (I actually have no idea what my ringtone is - other than to know it is not a song at all. My volume is never on, so I don't use a ringtone.)
* 5 or more saved voicemails. (I actually have 21 of them. And I have no idea why ANY of them are saved.)
* Cracked screen or case. (YES! I do have a small crack on my screen protector. Ryan offered to replace it, but it's just one small crack and I hated to waste a whole new one when this is fine.)
* Alarm is set. (Three of them, actually. One for weekdays, one for Saturdays, and one for Sundays!)
* Christmas app. (Sadly, no.)
* An event for today in your calendar. (I don't use my phone for a calendar, so nope.)
* Photo of Christmas decor. (Yes! I took a picture of the WillowBridge tree on Saturday before our Christmas party!)
* Made a call before 7 a.m. today. (Are you KIDDING ME? First of all, I wasn't up then. I wasn't even up before 8 today. And I don't do calls before 9.)
* Christmas photo background. (Nope.)
Total points for this category. For me? 25.
And finally, give yourself TEN POINTS for each of the following things if you have them in your phone.
* Over 1000 photos. (I have 2962.)
* Contact starting with a Z. (Apparently I do! I have a phone number for a sweet lady I used to go to church with - and her last name starts with Z!)
* Don't have an iPhone. (But I do.)
* Unopened voicemail. (Nope.)
* More than 200 contacts. (I was today years old when I learned I have 513 contacts.)
* Red or green phone case. (Nope.)
Total points for this category. For me? 30.
TOTAL POINTS FOR THE WHOLE GAME? For me? 88.
Any of you beat me????

That was fun! I lost count lol
I did not keep score, but I had a lot of the first group. Most of the second and only a few of the last. Not bad for me.
