I find that sometimes i can multitask,lol, well thats what i call it any way.There are things that we have to do and when you start to do things you end up getting stopped by the phone and people wanting to chat.Well while i am chatting on the phone i potter about putting things away and general house work, no matter who it is on the phone.If only some friends know that i talk to them while on the loo,lol, i dont think they would be very happy.

i usually do this, sometimes i'm chatting on phone while mylotting or doing something else, i can hold the phone between my ear and shoulder so i can have both my hand to use in worrking anything else, but sometimes when i'm using cellphones i usually used headset for my convenience

I have not mastered the are of trying to type while chatting to someone on the phone yet, lol, i am sure at this rate i shall master it in the end.I try to get things done and then the phone rings and you know the saying, i have started so i will finish,lol.Pers i need a head set rather than lodging the phone up against my ear.

I sure do otherwise I would never get anything done. I know the people talking with me also do some light duty while on the phone. I would like to get a speaker phone (like for a business) so that I could be hands free while chatting on the phone. My phone that I use now doesn't have a place for an ear piece, If it did, I would connect the piece and stick the phone in my pocket so I would be mobile, and have the use of both hands.

I hate it when people are talking to you on the phone and another person is trying to ask you things that are in your house at the same time, i hate that,lol.I try to do things while chatting on the phone, but somethings are impossible to do.I have to rest the phone on my shoulder and firmly against my ear,lol, i am getting good at it now.

i seem to be on the phone chatting with someone a lot of the time. if i didn't do other things while i talked then I would not get alot accomplished in my day. I have learned to multitask and I do it often.

I find that when I try to do that I forget where I put things away at. I usually just take care of talking with whom ever has called and then go back to putting things away.

I talk to my sister everyday, and I have peed while talking to her before. We just laugh about it.
I can get a bit of housework done while on the phone....we can talk and do easy things at the same time. With the right kind of phone, I can iron while talking. At the dollar store...you can buy bluetooths for your phone...then you can have both hands free. lol

I generally do not do anything other than speaking over the phone when i make a call. But when i a receive a call i usually cut vegetables or any other chore in the kitchen during the chat. When i do not have much i surf the net or play games while chatting on the phone.
Happy mylotting.

I am quite the muli-tasker, but not while on the loo...lol I can type while on the phone, watch TV and a great many household chores while on the phone.
But while on the loo, I would be afraid to flush and they hear it.

I usually write when i'm talking on phone or I can discuss about works while I'm reading. It's interesting. I think that all people are the same. We need to do multitask in this life nowadays. Life is always busy.

I am not a multi-tasker, I can do one thing at a time. And I do it well. I cannot be interrupted while I am doing something. I guess I focus too much. I will talk on the phone only when I am not busy and for a very short time. I am not a phone person either.

I do not chat on a phone while I am busy doing other things because I am the one who thinks whatever we do we have to do it with 100% concentration.While I am busy doing other work if I chat on a phone my mind would deviate from that work and the time taken to do that work would increase.So I prefer and mostly avoid to chat on a phone while I am busy doing other things.

Usually, I don't prefer to do something while using phone, if it is a friend, then just Okay and No Problem, Otherwise, I will be careful. I have often seen that,women are expert in doing this. She would cook, while using her phone or any other gadgets.
You know one thing, I have read article, which says that because of their (women) brain arrangements, they have the ability to do Multi-tasking at the same time like this :)

I remember when I first started using a wireless phone. I could actually get up and move around but I didn't realize it. I would set there and set there. Then, like a V-8 moment, I would relaize I could get up and move around freely. What a wonderful feeling. Now I can actually talk on the phone and do other things. Its like patting my heading and rubbing my belly.

No I do not chat when i am busy doing other things because I think that when you are doing anything we have to do it with 100% concentration so when we are busy doing things if we chat on Mobile phone our mind will get disturbed and the time to do that work would increase so I would mostly avoid chat on a phone while I am Busy doing other things

I always pick up the phone, no matter who the caller is, or how busy I am, for I feel that the caller might call because of something urgent; he might need my help. However, after picking up the phone,if I find that the topic is not worth my precious time, it would then be time to say good bye.
