I'm much happier not being online during the day. I only spent naptime on the computer, but I have enjoyed spending me time during naps instead...focusing on bible study, productive things around the house, etc. Things that add to me, not deduct from myself!

Though I can't leave that one out, I, too, am giving myself less time for unnecessary stuff (tv is my greatest vice). Though its limited, I enjoy spending time being inspired by blogs like this!

I need to learn to just leave it at home sometimes. Oh and I find that even the camera takes me away from enjoying my daugther some times. I need to learn to just leave it at home sometimes.

Seriously I've been dealing with this and putting it off and slowly pruning out what/who I don't need in my life. And I have to tell you that while you might be jealous of others, we're jealous of you. You have what we dream of having one day. Thanks for the kick in the butt.

I've been feeling like this a lot lately, too! Another friend recently gave up the Internet for a week, and I believe I need to do something similar so that I can be fully "there" at home *and* at work. I agree that facebook should probably be the first to go! Great post! I’ve been feeling like this a lot lately, too!

I know it won't change overnight and I'm not planning on cutting these things out completely, but I would like to spend less time on things that are truly not productive / conducive to my overall goals and that distract from those goals and time spent molding my children and together as a family. Thanks so much for your honest feelings and battle with the same things that I have a feeling many, many of us struggle with daily.
