Well, we are half way done with this fast. Wish I could say it has been easier. Like Steve, I have reduced my tv to almost nothing and when I do watch I feel crappy. My computer time has been limited and I feel cut off from the world. This am at the bus stop they were talking about a house that had been torn down around the corner from us. One mom said she had posted it on her facebook page and I could access it there. I almost thought, "well it is for finding out something." Then I stopped. Why the heck did I need to know about this? How was it going to enhance my day or my life? The answer was, "it wasn't" I didn't go to the pit of facebook (which calls every day and sends me e-mails for crying out loud!) David broke his collar bone and I thought of all the wonderful sympathy posts I could have gotten for him. Why? To what end?
I have been able to clean and do laundry like a mad woman and when that is all said and done, I have been able to rest and listen for God. I have a new bible study that I am trying to devote my time to and I am actually not rushing through the bedtime routine with my kids so I can watch "my show". When did that happen? My focus has shifted and I am finding out I like that. That said, I must admit I am already looking into the next month and quietly counting down the days. 14.
