social networking addiction?

so i went inactive last nite on my face book account, I've been on it everyday for 3 years, everyone says I'm addicted and will never be able to give it up. I really do enjoy connecting with my friends and family but I do waste a lot of time on it, time that could be better spent living like spending time with my family, working out or even doing laundry. It all seemed so innocent in the beginning but it as creeped into my work day checking several times a day. I tried to take a break before with inactivating but only last 5 hours, it was torture bu this time I'm really gonna do it. My friends will probably wager when I'll be back on fb. I do intend to go back but i'm challenging myself to at least a month to see what things I can actually accomplish in my life! so i will keep you posted....i already feel the strong urge to login, but i must resist! LOL

unfairness

ya know, sometimes life just seems to be so unfair, nothing is more convincing of this as seeing my aging, sick father wasting away in a nursing home... my mind knows he has to be there but in my heart i just can not accept this. how can this once strong wonderful man who raised me be just left there to wither away. i just can not accept that god let's good people that have lived their lives devoted to him end their lives like this. my faith has been rocked and i feel as if i may never recover...i can't even pray anymore...i am lost and on the verge of making a serious mistakes. i know i should count my blessings and that worse things have happened to people but this is just how i feel....so it is what is, my first depressing blog that no one will read but me...guess it's just my therapy! : )

What is this Stress?

What is this thing we call stress? They say is causes so many physical problems, from anxiety to weight gain to weight loss to chest pain. Not to mention the emotional & social problems. All I know is the older I get the more stress is in my life. I thought life was going to get easier & was going to get wiser.What's with that? I guess it's just another phase of life, this middle age stress. I sure hope I can figure out how to get past this without going crazy or ending up living on streets! LOL : ) Just Keeping it real! Deb
