This Internet thing is consuming me. It's not fitting in with the vision that I have for my life.
I'm addicted. Since I realize this, I'm taking baby steps in get my life back on track.
I was suppose to participate in Minimalist Mom's week long unplug last month, but a week without being "connected" made me too nervous. I chickened out.
I will unplug for one day instead and see how I feel tonight.
After tracking my online usage, I realize there are some sites that take up majority of my time.
Forbidden Sites:
ALL social media
Youtube
Celebrity gossip forums
In moderation:
No checking email more than 3x today-sounds like a lot but I check it about 15x per day right now.
What I will do:
Read Courtney Craver's short book, Living in the Land of Enough
Write in my journal
Listen to music
Sit on my front porch
Act out (play) The Lion & the Mouse with Theo & Alvin
Work on the $100 challenge blog post
Plan this weekend's cooking class (so excited!)
My goal is to unplug for the day but hopefully I can do more time than that.
Baby steps work best for me.
