You may have noticed that I have not been posting much lately. It is not because I can't find anything to write about. Although , I can' t think of a thing right now.
While Riky has been home, we have been revamping our household schedule to include the things that are esential to our family life and in tune with our goals for our family. I have realized in that soul/schedule searching time that I have given this computer way too much attention.
I can spend an hour or more a day on here...reading blogs, reading email, writing a new post on my blog... it is necessary for my family that I back off some. The computer is a way to detatch from my life in some ways.
I don't need to detatch. I need to stay attatched. I need to view the time that I can have on the computer as extra time when I have it.
Not time that I deserve to have.
There are tons of things that I want to get done durring my day. I will continue to blog, but it will not be as often, at least until I get to the point where my time is managed better. It will also help if I start to type faster. If you need to contact me, call me. I will not be checking my email as frequently, either!
Pray for me, as this computer time has become a habit and, like any habit, it will be a temptation to me. It will be a hard habit to break.

Amen and Amen!! I am with you on being a bigger part of my family and a smaller part of 'everyone else's'!!
I think it would be a wonderful challenge for everyone parent to take. So, we don't watch t.v., but we might as well be with as much time as we waste here when we could be paying attention to our kids. Then they wouldn't have to be naughty to GET our attention.
You go girl. I'm with you 100%. In fact I was just thinking about this all last week. Not that you invited me or anything, but count me in!
This has been so easy for me lately. I think I'm getting sick of blogging or something. Imagine that! LOL I've barely been able to keep up with email, and have found myself more often than not deleting without reading. I was beginning to think I had OCD tendencies or something when it came to HAVING to read every email that came in. It's becoming a non issue and I couldn't be more thankful! :) I really do think all the political emails I've been receiving have helped that tremendously. I can't stand them! :) I get some sort or twisted satisfaction from just pressing the delete button without opening it. What is UP with that???
