From Friday till Monday afternoon I was UNPLUGGED. I didn't get on a computer (only googled some very important song lyrics and a couple of restaurants on my BB), facebook, or twitter for three days and it was GLORIOUS. I do obviously love the internet, facebook, twitter, etc. but sometimes it gets so overwhelming and I feel like I am out of the loop if I am not checking one of them a few times a day. It was wonderful to just "disconnect" from those things all weekend long, I should do that more often. I rarely keep up with FB and Twitter on normal weekends, but I do check them occasionally, more unplugging from here on out. I get obnoxious if I always have my phone in my lap reading stuff. I get so caught up in reading on twitter information about an event, i.e., a sporting event...that I forget to enjoy the actual thing. It can be so draining sometimes....
I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...
So true! When we moved last month I didn't have access to the Internet for a week. I thought it was going to drive me crazy but I actually enjoyed it!! Now that I have it, I can't help but get on.
