RIP cell phone #3

I do have some strengths, however keeping up with things is NOT one of them.  A few months ago I diagnosed my self with LEA syndrome which is classified by one constantly Losing Everything Always.  Now I have found a more accurate diagnosis. 

I have BLEA.  Break and/or Lose Everything Always.

This morning my cell phone which was also my alarm clock collapsed into several different pieces. 

I would love to blame this on a pet dog, a hyper child or heck even an aggressive plant, but the truth is I just dropped it one too many times.  In fact,  I no longer buy cell phones that cost over $19.99, because I know that they have a short lifespan in my possession.  

Today is the inauguration of Target go-phone #4.  I usually average about 4 phones a year, which means this one needs to last me until January (gulp).

I wish BLEA was limited to cell phones, but BLEA affects all areas of my life.  That is classic of the disorder.

• On this past family vacation, I lost my brand new nightguard.  I will spare you the dirty details and sum it up like this: nightguards are expensive and Mom Cindy is NOT down with funding two of them.
• A few days ago I went running and locked my car keys in the car, but took my house key with me – like that was going to help.
• I am on Drivers license #3 – for this year.

I could go on, I really could, but I do not want to bore you to tears (literally) with stories of my BLEA.

I am just wondering if this can be overcome.  I always assumed I would grow up, become “responsible” and my BLEA (which was undiagnosed at the time) would simply disappear. 

The bad news is BLEA has only gotten worse with age. 

Maybe one day by the Grace of God a miracle will happen  and I will really become “responsible”. 

Untill then I am on the lookout for a cheap infomercial with some kind of cure all pill and/or gadget to forever eradicate BLEA. 

I am sure this plan will work because infomercials have the answer for everything.
