These last 7 days has shown me just how reliant and dependant I was on you. It is very difficult for me to comprehend the time when you and your ancestors did not exist. And I functioned fine without your species. Every morning you woke me up, gently, with a soft musical tune and if I needed a little sleep-in, all I had to do was give you a light touch and you would grant me an extra 10 minutes. Once I was up, I recorded my temperature and checked my chart, you then told me what the weather was going to be for the day so I could dress and prepare accordingly.
On the way to work you would play any music I desired and when inspiration struck would take down a note with just the sound of my voice. Whilst at work I was able to send messages to everyone I knew as you held all my contact information for every single person in my life. When I was waiting on hold or walking down the road you would show me my emails, update me with the latest gossip and give me a few games to play to pass the time. On the way home from work you would connect me to Hubby so we could keep each other company on the drive home and then at home I would leave you in the bedroom and instruct you on when I would like to be woken up.
I relied on you for so much, for information, entertainment, storage, note taking, photo capturing, music playing, shopping list creation, email, blogging and about 100 other things. And now you are gone, and I sit and wait, hoping today is the day when I get the call to tell me that you are fixed and all better now and once again we can be reunited. Your temporary replacement isn't the same. It is several years older, and with none of your functions. It wakes me up with a noisy, obnoxious alarm and it doesn't snooze. And the only contact on there is Hubby, I have no access to anyone else. It has no apps, only a silly ball shooting game and I have given up on sending messages, the keyboard is too small for my fingers.
Please come back home soon, I miss you.
