Facebook

As of three days ago, I've officially deactivated my Facebook account.  I started to realize I would look at it everyday, but not really care or be interested in any of it.  It was just something to do.  So I thought I would just deactivate it and see what I would do to fill that extra time.  I have to say I don't even miss it. It has actually been very freeing in a way.  It's kind of like when you go camping and you don't have cell phone service.  I don't need to know about everyone and their cat (I really did have a friend named Kitty Nelson... it really was a cat).  All I care about are my family and my close friends and that is why I have my blog and my email.

Lots of people use Facebook and really like it.  I did for awhile.  But I guess I just got bored.  Maybe I'll return to the Facebook ranks before to long.  In the meantime, I feel like I'm connected to the people I care about in other ways.

So now that I have this extra time I am going to try and put some of it into my blog.  To me my blog is like our family journal, and at anytime I can have it printed out into a hardbound book.  It will be something for our family to look though for many years.  Can't say that about Facebook...
