Unplugged 2009 Jan

I finished my 30 day unplugged trial a bit over a week ago (9 days to be exact), and today was pondering some significant shifts in my way of thinking as a result of this trial:
-Internet and TV news: I truly want nothing to do with them anymore. I will listen to the [...]

Day 22-26 – Unplugged

February 7, 2009

Well, not a ton of updates this week. Between a very busy work week and not feeling 100%, I just haven’t had the energy to update. Usually I update from work on a lunch break, but not even time to do that, and the husband has been working on a [...]

Well, I am now officially in the homestretch as I see it. Only 8 days left.
While I don’t have day to day details, I know that over the last 4 days, I have done VERY well. No little checks here and there, nada. It does help when I am active on [...]

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.

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

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 [...]

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

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 [...]
