An honorable end for my 5 yrs old cell phone: recycled.

Yesterday was my last day with my small and simple cell phone. In today cell phone's era is quite a long time to have a phone for 5 years.

My husband gave it to me as a present for my birthday and uploaded for me a background image of a sunflower, my favorite flower.

So I decided I needed to give to my cell an honorable and memorable goodbye. I'll recycle it! Who knows maybe one day I will own a cellphone with a piece of my sunflower cell phone.

If you want to give an honorable and memorable goodbye to your beloved cell phone too, find a place near you in this EPA website page
