    Question How many phones in your home and are they....

    All in use.

    We have 2 phones, although only one is being used. The other one is for emergencies for when the power goes off.

    We have one phone (that has a speaker phone and a keypad at the base) that is cordless and we have one corded phone (with the ringer off) in the bedroom. It lives in the bedroom because that way we can answer the phone at night if there is an emergency and in case the power goes out.

    Ken has a cell phone for work and he made me get a cell phone when I was working. He made me keep it after I quit because he felt like it was safer.
