52 Things/Week 5: Not Log Into Facebook for a Whole Week!

Well, I really never expected this to be so difficult, actually. The first half of the week, I was jonesin' to find out what was happening. To look at silly pictures. To post what was happening with me. To update a get together my friends and I are having tomorrow. But no. I was steadfast. As resolute as I could be.

What made it even more difficult, I was updated with my Facebook Messenger app that a friend who I hadn't heard from in... a year?... messaged me. Of course. Thank the Fates for doing that! Friday I wanted to tag my son and myself at the mall. We were having a good time shopping, playing video games, and eating at TGIFridays (which, we will not do again).

I found that, know what?, I *can* love without Facebook! Who'dda thunk it? I do plan to wean myself off it more. I don't check often now, but obviously it became part of my routine and a way to communicate with certain people. I will, of course, respond to my friend... Sunday. Until then, I will enjoy the peace brought on by a lack of social networking. Time to read!
