Stepping Back...

Sigh.

So here goes...

On the weekend the hubs and I had a much-needed one-on-one chat at Second Cup while the kiddies were at my parent's house. We talked about us, about life and about what needed to change.

I was agreed upon by both of us that I spend far too much time on the internet. FAR too much time. So here's what I've come up with...

I will not go on the internet during the day when the boys are up and awake (currently one is in blanket time and one is napping so it's okay right now).

This blog is still very important to me so I will continue to update it.

HOWEVER, I am stepping back from Google Reader and checking all my blogs.
Sigh.

This is a big one for me, but hopefully it will lead me to seek out community face-to-face instead of face-to-screen. I enjoy staying updated on other people's lives, but really...my lack of reading others' blogs will go largely unnoticed by others and eventually by me. I will be forced to be proactive in staying updated with peoples' lives through email or phone calls or face to face meet ups.

I'm also stepping back from Twitter. This one can be really addictive, but it's silly, really. So I'm stepping away for now. Indefinitely.

I will still be on Facebook, but there's only so much that I do there, so it shouldn't take up as much time.

We discussed a lot more including health and exercise, time with the Lord and in the Word as well as regular date nights.

I'm excited. Spring does that to ya.

And this way I may actually be able to start being more creative!

I hope and pray this helps me to be a healthier, happier, more loving wife and mother and daughter of the King!

So farewell my bloggy & Twitter friends ... don't worry, it's not you. It's me. Really.
