Focused plan

So my first 15 days of being off Facebook I really want to spend it with my family and my home. Trying to organize my things, make a better schedule, clean up the house, concentrate on making my home mine. I also want to focus on spending quality time with the kids and hubby. It has been so easy to tell the kids I'll be there in a. minute and next thing I know it's been an hour or more. My kids are very smart even Joshua throws a fit when he's on my lap while I am on. finding more time for my kids my husband and my home.. thats the first 15 days. Those of you who are taking this challenge too what will your focus be? My last 15 or so days I want to concentrate on my current relationships with others...or even with those I don't know and how I can bra errrr help to them. it will take purposefulness and time and a new kind of engery for my focus because I won't already know what they did 15 mintues ago. during this whatsinaface time period..I will also be trying to do nice things for one person/family each day brightening their day letting go of any kind of anger worry or bitterness I may have from the past in knowing too much from FB. I hope to make someone's day in a much more personal way. currently we are having computer problems all around anyway and last night was the first night the 5 of us where in the living room all at the same time for more then half an hour...we didn't know what to do.... what's most important to you..it may not be ga book but what is keeping your time from what's most important? what challenge do you need...what do you nedto let go of? chanllenge yourself and let me know! We are al in this together to love and support each other. No ones getting kicked out of my group.

31 Day Challenge

So why get off of Facebook.... it seems silly doesn't it. Yes, I actually think it does too! However, lately I've been checking the place of my heart. My heart seems to be on my mind a lot lately. I am going to challenge myself to be off of facebook for at least 31 days starting Oct. 1st to Oct 31st and see what kind of change if any it does to my life.

Some of the reasoning behind my challenge is because of the amount of time I am on Facebook, but I am beginning to feel that facebook has created a whole new world.  Some of this new world has left me feeling very angry, upset, disgusted, judgmental, jealous, envious of others.  Facebook allows you the option to "SAY THE FIRST THOUGHT THAT POPS IN YOUR MIND" back when I was a kid there was a phrase called "think before you speak" well.. now I am understanding what that phrase actually means and the importance of it.

During this challenge I am going to try and focus more on my spending more time with my family (those games got me hooked) make an effort to spend real time with real people in hopes to make a real difference. To some of you this make look and sounds like the dumbest thing ever... but our world is so consumed by social media I think we have forgotten what life was like without facebook, twitter, etc....

Each day I will try and blog about my experiences and see if putting my focus off of facebook and into FACES makes a difference.....

WHATs In a FACE ???? I hope to regain the answer to that question.

Love you all and thanks for reading :o)
