Still Going After All These Days

I have only clicked on my Facebook icon once a day for the last three days. I'm very proud of myself. When I think about it, and I do often, I don't really think anyone misses me. If I'm not there, someone else is there to fill the void. Isn't that what it's all about, after all? Instant contact, instant communication no matter who it is. I am simply another person at the end of a keyboard saying 'hello, I'm here.' Is that what I want out of my life?  I predict Facebook is going to get tiring and lose its interest for all but those who are home bound in the future. It's wonderful for people who actually can not get out with friends because of illness, disease, or for other reasons. I choose my life out of doors, meeting real friends and having real relationships. After all, my Facebook friends won't be coming to family weddings or funerals. They aren't really 'there.'

So how do you like my gorgeous Greyhound? Isn't she a beauty?

I am in control of Facebook!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Okay, it's only one afternoon and evening. BUT I did not look at my Facebook page during that time. I did open it up this morning to find 15 comments that I had to answer. Now I am going to do without for the rest of the day. I hope this gets easier.

Facebook, Facebook,
I really want to look
Facebook, Facebook,
Boy you got me hooked!

I want to know what is going on in my cyber-place! Who is looking for me? What is new? Any new pictures? I want to know what is going on in my absence. Will anyone notice I'm not there as often?  I don't really know these people! I'm starting to gain control over Facebook. Will I last? Hmmmmmmmmm.......I so wanted to share a good quote I heard today. Well, if I remember it tomorrow.........

Facebook Anonymous?

I know this is off the topic of marriage, but I wanted to share a dilemma that I face and I suspect many others share as well. I'm a Facebook addict! I can't stop myself from checking in several times a day. I can't pinpoint when it started, but I'm sure I'm addicted. I'm thinking that we should have a 'Facebook Anonymous' page here. I will start, but I need your support to continue. I am not going to even peek at Facebook for the rest of the day. That's a promise and I will hold to it.....if I can. I will report back to you tomorrow if I succeeded or  failed. Will you join me in your own way? You can offer support or admit to being an addict yourself. Help! I feel the need to peek.............No, I have to be strong..........peek! no! please peek? be strong.......
