So, I’ve just deleted the Bookmark button to Facebook and will try to stay away from there until December 1.
I hope I do better than the Milk-Free Week I tried a few weeks ago. In that case, I did become more mindful of the huge number of things I eat with milk products in them! I failed more than once but did not give up trying until the week was out.
I have Pinterest (less time-consuming and it raises my spirit with beauty and creativity) and a couple of WordPress accounts – it’s not like I’m going cold turkey off the internet.
Here’s some videos that helped to bring about this change:

As with all addictions, I need to consciously plan to change habits and to use time more constructively.
What comes to my mind?
- play board games with my children more than one night a week,
- read more,
- meditate on God’s Word (Bible),
- chat with my husband before 10 pm,
- deep clean my room,
- socialise with friends,
- type up recipes and update recipe book.
… got any other ideas?
