spend less time discussing life on the 'Net and more time actually doing all the things I envision.

I’m actually on the ‘net right now. So it’s kind of ironic, no?

Maybe I should contemplate what I’m trying to hide from when I’m in front of the computer. How did I survive BEFORE I got the internet?

It feels good to actually be able to cross this one off!!!

no hope, no hope, no hope

Well this ia an ongoing goal so it can never truly be completed but 43things is now a tool and no longer an addiction. I’m now spending less time talking about doing things and more time actually doing things. This is progress and progress makes me happy.

I give up. I’ve cut way down since last month. My time online isn’t a complete waste. There is a lot of positive interaction.. blah, blah blah.

So I wanted to look into some used textbooks online. I set my timer and spent 30 minutes doing everything but that. So here is an addition to the old plan. When something comes to mind that I need to do online, I’ll write it down. Then later I’ll take my list and just stick to the list. No getting distracted and no wander off to other sites or checking email. Then I can have a separate online session of playtime.

I don’t know what has gotten into me lately. I’ve been online for about 7 years but the last two months it’s been ridiculous. Actually, it started when I discovered this site; but getting a chance to vent and receive encouragement from the users has helped me tremendously through a tough time. As a support system it’s great but I don’t want it to turn into a crutch because then I’d have to eventually have to abstain from it all together. And I like here.

So 30 minutes a day fooling around online. If I can stick with this a month I can consider this goal accomplished.

I have made ZERO progress on this goal. In fact I’ve gotten worse; much worse. I don’t even realize how much time is passing. So I’m on my way out to do some Christmas shopping. While I’m out, I’m getting an egg timer maybe this will help.

A few hours later I got back online, checking comments and etc. Today I’ve been on about 45 minutes. Oh how time flies. Well, better go.

In highschool I got hooked on the video game Tetris. I had to limit the number of games I played each day. I just discovered this site like a week ago. Before that I was online maybe 30 -45 minutes a day. I know it was less than an hour. So I’ve got to do it again. No more than 30 minutes a day.
Starting now.
