Well, I did better than I expected on not using technology for an entire day. I didn't go technology free, but there was a definite difference and, more importantly, I liked it. I did my usual morning routine of checking my email, facebook and doing an online crossword puzzle. Michael had to work very late the night before, so I didn't want to do anything to make too much noise. I got Squirt out on a good walk before getting ready for church. I was afraid I would spend the entire day at the computer because Michael worked again yesterday and I did not have any plans. Luckily, the sofa was calling my name and I took a delicious nap for a few hours listening to some wonderful classical music on the radio. I'd forgotten how comfortable Grandmother's sofa is. I think I've found my new napping spot!
Anyway, it was just nice to do some other things besides staring at my computer or my phone. I watched some great vintage tv, made dinner, visited with Lois next door and watched Victoria on PBS last night....all without my phone or computer. It was liberating. I do recognize the fact that I use my technology and that I truly do need it. I've come to rely on it for many things. But, the bottom line is that I don't have to rely on it for everything.
That is all.
