Not So Wordless Wednesday – Marching Band Week 2

aug 9 2010

This is week 2 of the high school marching band camp. Last week was just the freshman (my daughter included) and this week the upperclassmen, drill team and color guard have all joined in. The temperatures remain in the 100’s, today it is supposed to be 105. It’s been absolutely crazy! My daughter is doing really well with the marching and is only freaking out about having to memorize the music. I know she will get done what she needs to get done, but she is a perfectionist and puts a lot of pressure on herself. Next week should be easier, they do the camp in the evenings instead, giving her the entire day to work on her music.

By the way, there are over 600 kids out on this field. Sorry about the photo quality, it’s taken with my phone and looking into the sun.

Mobile ReBoost

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boost Mobile. All opinions are 100% mine.

I am no longer under contract with my current cell provider so I am actively checking out my current provider as well as other providers and comparing plans and costs. I’ve had my current cell phone for 2+ years, so I’m also looking at phones and deciding what features are most important to me. I have a family plan with 4 phones on my plan, so I want to make sure I find something that works for everybody.

One of the providers I’m checking out is Boost Mobile. With Boost, there are no contracts, it is a pay-as-you-go program. They offer flat rate plans that include the most popular features, talk, text, web and email. A big plus in my mind is that they have no activation fee, no roaming charges and no long distance charges. They also make it very easy to pay the bill because payment can be made in person, online (my favorite way) or by phone, all of which make it simple to Re-Boost. You can even set up automatic payments so you never have to worry about forgetting to make you payment.

They also have a large choice of phones ranging from the most basic all the way to the high end Blackberry, a phone I’ve seriously been contemplating. I see so many people using their phones to update their social media pages including Facebook. I haven’t figured out how to do that yet, but hope to accomplish that when I get a new phone.

Boost Mobile is available nationwide with very competitive rates and service. Because they are available through many major retailers, I’m going to check out their phones in person, only because I have to be able to touch and feel before I make my final decision. I’ll let you know which phone and what extra features I get!
