I leave my phone at home now all the time....it's been about a month..do not miss having it at all...very freeing. Some people think it's quite strange, but hey, I love it. Everywhere you are, the phones seem to be there too. I will soon get an old style phone..no internet. Just calling, and SMS. Suits me fine. We did fine without them before, we can do so again. The only thing I will miss is using it to take photos....I will adapt.
