I realize I have been rather quiet the past few weeks with
my posts. There are a number of reasons behind it, lack of inspiration, but
mainly due to a growing awareness of my hours spent on a computer. I needed to
break a cycle before it got any crazier.
Like most people my job entails me being on a computer for
the better part of 8 hours a day. I found myself spending another 2 to 3 hours
a night when I got home. That is 2 to 3 hours I could put to better use then
playing the games on Facebook. I found myself even more exhausted and my mind
over stimulated to the point of dreaming about dishes being cooked or crops
that needed harvested. When I woke in the morning rested was not what I was
feeling.
I had found myself rushing through my morning routine so I
could have time to play a game or two before leaving for work. When I got sick
everything took a back seat to getting well. Even though I found it annoying it
was a blessing because I could look at my new obsession with some perspective.
I began playing the games as a way to kill time while waiting for my primetime
TV shows to come on. Then I began complained that I didn’t seem to have time to
get things done during the week.
This week I am playing catch up and getting into a better
routine. I am ready to get back on the horse but in a more controlled manner.
Thank you for your patience!
