Day 17 – Unplugged

January 30, 2009

Better day….improvement over the prior day. I did break down and spent about 15 minutes researching something I just couldn’t take anymore. I needed a mental reprieve from the constant battle, and the subject was driving me nuts. I got home early from work, was fried after a stressful day, and decided [...]

Day 16 – Unplugged

January 29, 2009

I had one minor slip up today, looked up a map and a quick vacation price, about 3-4 minutes online. It was outside of my rules, and I knew it. Staying off the PC games, staying away from TV, all seem to be REAL easy at this point. But those 5 minute [...]

Day 15 – Unplugged

January 28, 2009

HALF WAY THROUGH!
I can say that the last two weeks have flown by. Cruising right along at this point.
Yesterday was pretty productive. Work seemed less productive, but later in the day, I realized I had gotten quite a bit accomplished, just nothing I had originally planned, so [...]

Day 14 – Unplugged

January 27, 2009

Much better day today after an up and down weekend.
Got caught up on a lot of tasks at work, which is good, because I have some upcoming projects I will need to focus on that will need more of my attention. Still have quite a bit on my to do list, [...]

Day 11-13 – Unplugged

January 26, 2009

Long weekend……lots of ups and downs as this challenge goes.
Day 11 was Friday, it was a good day, no issues that I can recall. Productive at work, came home, and was quite productive through the evening before we had company join us later on.
Day 12/13 was Sat/Sunday, and things got [...]

Day 10 – Unplugged

January 23, 2009

One third of the way through!! But really, I am SOOO not counting down the days. The only time I seem to be aware is just in these posts, and maybe if someone asks.
Did much better then the prior day of a few slip ups. Still a little light on [...]

Day 9 – Unplugged

January 22, 2009

Today was a bit rough around the edges…probably the most I have ‘pushed’ my limits thus far. It also didn’t help that I seemed far more emotional and vulnerable then I usually am. I had less clarity and more confusion, do not think this was a challenge related issue, more just a personal [...]

Day 8 – Unplugged

January 21, 2009

Back to work on day 8, was reluctant to stay on ‘work’ tasks, so had more pressure to try and get on the internet and find distractions, but I still managed to avoid the net and email. Did resort to a bit of verbal distractions, but wasn’t a huge issue. Things are getting [...]

Day 7 – Unplugged

January 20, 2009

Wow, a week in, and still on track. This has to be a record for me :)
No issues today, maybe caught some inadvertent TV while doing some tasks in the kitchen, as I am not restricting my husband’s TV watching during one of my ‘trials’. But outside of that, I had [...]

Day 5-6 – Unplugged

January 19, 2009

Not a bad weekend, Saturday I did several projects around the house, did some cooking and stock making, and in general had a very productive day. Sunday we went riding on the track (dirt bikes), most of the day. I had set aside that I could watch a couple hours [...]
