Face Book

I took Facebook off my phone.  I found I was checking it many times a day, many more times than I needed!  And with this being a big voting year, I was already tired of seeing the political ads. Add in family members who likes to post their own politico opinions as well ..... ugh.  It's too much. 

Added to that, most of my family doesn't make posts of the kind I like to see, photos or thoughts about what's going on in their lives. 

After 5 days,  I'm finding that I don't miss it.  In fact, I think I'm much happier not seeing what I'd been seeing!    And I definitely didn't need to see an ad for something every 3rd post.   I especially hated those misleading blurbs that wanted you to click so you could read about some current event, but when you clicked, the story you wanted to see wasn't really there.  To me, that was BS.

It's quite a relief to have it gone!

Since I went that first step, I also have begun the process of "unsubscribing" to all the crazy companies who send me email.  To me, this is another good step toward simplifying my life.  Who needs 30-40 emails each day?  Ugh, too much

It's amazing how all this relatively new technology begins taking over our lives!
So I decided to take a stand and take some of my life back.

Will I be successful?
Who knows, but I think in the long run, I'll be happier!
