Unplugging

I need to unplug from this blog and from other time-traps for a while: Facebook, Google Reader, Pinterest, etc.

I have cleared my Google Reader, Facebook hasn’t been opened in a few days, and there probably won’t be a blog post until the weekend.

When I truly have free time, I will spend time on these sites, but they have just became another item on my to-do list, which is not healthy.

I wish there were more hours in the day—extra hours that would allow me to spend time on these sites, but unfortunately (and fortunately) there are 24 hours in the day—no more, no less!

There are more important things in my life that I have been sacrificing lately:

– sleep

– running/stretching

– time with Craig

– making healthy meals

– work

And with my overall stress running high, I need to take some time for myself! I think you’ll understand. 😉

Hi, I'm Michelle

I love running around the lakes of Minnesota, running after my two boys, and racing anything from the 5K to the marathon. I have been blogging here since 2010 when I ran my first marathon. I finally secured my sub-3 hour marathon after trying for 8 years.

    Good for you! If you even read this since you might not as you’re unplugged, we should also hang out now that you’re back from the marathon relay!

    Good idea. I think I’ll try some “unplugging” myself. Me time might be just what the doctor ordered.

    I hope it helps and you are able to de-stress!

    Agree with you 10000x time over. I think when something becomes more of a chore than an enjoyable hobby you need to step back from it for a while. Enjoy the me time and Craig time! <3
