Unplugging

I think life was so much simpler before the iphone. I left it alone once I got home from work. Now, between Facebook, Twitter and Angry Birds it feels like the phone is an extension of me and that is not a good thing.

So, I have quit facebook.

I deactivated my account this morning. And I'm not going to lie, it was hard to do. I enjoy facebook because I don't get out too much. Facebook lets me keep up with my friends, old and new, my family and life from the comforts of my couch. Or my desk. Or bed.

But I need to get away from the phone that held my attention more than it should and focus more on my family. I have a wonderful husband and a great daughter and facebook took up too much of my time with them. I hate to admit that I was, in fact, addicted.

I may reactivate it again someday. I may not. Today is just the first step. We'll see where it goes from here.
