can't give up "all" technology!!!! LOL
So, I got the question today, after what 3 weeks....."are you missing FB and ready to come back to the social network of today" and I was able to answer proudly "No, don't miss it a bit" :) To see the look on the guys face was hysterical, b/c he was a friend of mine and saw just how much I enjoyed FB that I think he was quite surprised.....So, as I was talking to him about my decision, why I gave it up, and how not having it has helped my daily distractions and stress level diminish very quickly.....I got a smile on my face! Now, this blog, sure helps with keeping in touch (so to speak) and all you friends that I've allowed into share our "private" little world (well, for the most part...how private is anything on the computer these days, LOL) but overall, I do feel great and feel better not knowing so much that goes on in people's lives. It was interesting in the grocery store when I ran into a friend and actually had a conversation about things and not "oh I see you on FB and glad things are going well" and honestly, I'm glad I'm not sharing so much about our life anymore, either. As easy as it is to share stuff, I never realized how much people took that, ran with it, and never forgot it. I still have people that I see, saw things on FB, and think "wow, why would you have shared that"! So, truly, I don't miss being "connected in" if you will w/ the world and having the world not "connected in" with me, feels so refreshing everyday!!! Don't get me wrong folks, not dogging on those of you that have a FB account still and I give you kudos for not having the same feelings I found myself having w/ it, b/c towards the end I was getting so angry w/ people that would post stuff....so, for all of you able to keep it humorous, I'm glad!!! Anyway, enough about that, I just found it funny from my conversation this afternoon not being on FB and the fact that I don't miss it, hysterical is all......Now, the smart phone that I was so ready to give up, as well...that's a different story and thanks to my brother-in-law his salesmen pitch is working, I'm probably going to be upgrading....LOL So, I guess at the end of all of this, I'm not so ready to give up on all the technological advances these days, and keeping my phone will be the 1 way I can stay on top of things....LOL
