Internet Diet

Okay, it is hard to blog when you are on an internet diet, just saying.

I woke up this morning, grabbed my phone and checked my messages. I skimmed Facebook and twitter, check the weather and read some news. I was getting ready to get out of bed and flipped over to the Lenten challenge of the day.

Internet diet…

Fail!!

So, I showered and headed into work. I stayed off the internet for the bulk of the day. But then there was an email or two that required immediate response. I also had to update Hootesuite for the church’s bible in a year reading. So I needed to be online a bit.

So, I told myself that I was on a diet, not a fast. I did only what was required and did not flitter time away on Facebook and Twitter. But I did realize how much I really on technology to do much of my daily life. But I also took the time to have lunch with a friend and re-connect. The face to face time was great. So maybe a little less Facebook and Twitter would be good, and more face to face time might help.

So armed with those learnings, as the day came to end, I will admit I caved. I played a couple of games of Candy Crush.
