"My name is Corinne, and I am an Internet addict. My new Internet time will be limited to when I am the only one awake in my house. This means naptime and the rare times when I am awake and Matt is not. I am completely serious. I have a problem! Trying to learn to focus on what I am sitting right in front of, instead of what's going on everywhere else. Call me if you need me!"
?
I really think I have issues! My husband called me out on it last night, and it really got me thinking. I often jump on here instead of spending time with my family, which is what's most important. Trying to get a new outlook on life!
Can anyone commiserate??
Re: My facebook status
Ok just checking!
I have cut back alot. I am on all the time during boring work hours, but I have cut out alot of my computer time at home. I realized DH and I werent talking very much.
Me!! ::Raisies Hand::
I'm constantly online....
I don't have that problem, but DH does. I'm on a lot during the day, but not at night and rarely on the weekends. I sit in front of a computer all day at work, so it's the last thing I want to do when I get home.
DH will come home from work and immediately get on the computer. It annoys me. We only see each other, (DH, DS and I) in the evenings and weekends, and I would like to spend that time together. Usually I'm pretty passive agressive and say things like "Daddy, come cuddle with us!" He usually gets the hint. At any rate, I think it's a great idea for you! It's even better that you realized it needs to be done. Good for you!!
Well I work outside the home, so a little different situation. I made a personal rule years ago that I would not go online when I am at home (except to upload pictures), and it has worked out really well actually. All my friends and family know this, if they email me and I don't respond - they call because they know I won't respond until Monday when I am back at work.
Probably not the best for my work situation, but hey, that is what break times are for :P
