Cutting back time on Social websites

 Being on the internet has always been fun, especially over the last few years.  It was one thing that made the pandemic bearable.  But, as life continuously changes, it's time for me to change with it.  One of the things that I have decided to change is the amount of time that I spend on social websites.  There are several reasons for this.  One is that, simply put, I spend far too much time on the internet and there are so many other things I could be doing.  The other one is that I need to be more present in real life.  The internet is a great escape, but I have found myself to be escaping too much.  I want to be more active in my life and one way to help with that is to limit my time on these sites.

I am maintaining my Facebook account.  There are simply too many people that I actually know on there to let that one go.  However, I'm not going to be on there for hours at a time.  That's also one of the reasons I do not, and have no intention of, putting FB messenger on my phone.  That's pushing it too far for me LOL  But I have a handful of other sites that I participate in and I just need to cut back.  At first, I thought I would delete the profiles all together, but I decided against that.  One day, I would like to revisit them and don't want the headache of creating new profiles.  And hopefully by the time I get back to them, I will be able to do some serious updating of myself on there.

But, this is a challenge that I am going to enjoy simply because it will help me to do other things with my time.  Who knows, I may even get myself out of the house LOL  Like I said, I'll return to them one day, just not today.

That is all.
