I posted for 31 days last December using the Reverb10
prompts. While the original creators of those prompts are not doing them this
year, another person has stepped up and I'm going to follow along. I really
enjoyed reflecting on my year last year and hope to have a similar fun
experience this year.
Did you slip back
into any old habits that you wish you hadn't? Did you gain any new habits that
you wish you would have walked away from? Did you discover the evils of
Nutella? 'Fess up ... we won't tell.
My addiction to checking Twitter, Google+, Facebook, etc got a little crazy at times. I blame my iPhone and iPad. They're always with me at home. I did try to get better at putting them away while Abby is awake. I also recently dialed back on the number of people I follow/friend on several of the sites which reduces the flow. I'm something of a completist as well, and I need to give up on that. Don't have to read every last tweet! Trying to do that by having a list on Twitter that I go to if I just don't have time for it, to at least see what my closest friends/acquaintances are up to and doing similar things on the other services.
To note: I've been smoke free for nearly 3 years now and it feels great. Still get the urge every once in a while, but that's usually after too much alcohol and the fact that virtually all of my friends have also quit the habit makes it easy to not fall back into bad patterns.
