Lent 2014

So this post is late. Better late than never.

What did everyone give up for Lent? I have a friend who gave up sweets. Um, crazy! I gave up chocolate one year and thought even Jesus would think that was nuts. :)

Seriously, I stuck to my tradition and gave up facebook. Funny. I like it. I mean, I like not being on facebook. I don't miss it. I find it a relief. Yes, I'm out of touch, yes, I miss coupons, deals and school activities. But I don't miss gloating, bragging, endless baby pictures and selfies. Really, your kids are adorable but they are filling up my news feed. And, your mug is handsome and all but it would be better if I did not see it with a caption of, "am I the hottest man alive or what?!" I mean really, gag me.

So, I didn't delete you as a friend (although it may look that way if you noticed I was gone. And, how sweet or you to notice. :)). I am getting more real life things done, like play Uno with my kids, annoy my husband, or work on redoing Alivia's room for her upcoming 10th birthday.

If I'm lucky, I won't log back into facebook. I don't think I would miss it.

Why I Despise Facebook

Yeah, I got back on Facebook during my trip to Florida as it was the only way I knew of to reach someone I knew in the area. I got a hold of her, too. So, I guess it is effective in that respect.

But really, there are so many other reasons to really despise Facebook. No offense, but I keep a small group of friends. I would like to delete all my facebook "friends" expect those people. I do not care to see much of the stuff I see and hear about on there. Really? So annoying. I have tried to edit it, but I keep seeing this crap. I don't know these people; they don't know me. And, some of the people I know but I really wish I didn't.

The way I look at it is I have 2 options: delete like everyone or just get off.

I am choosing the later, but I have deleted or nearly deleted many. I have only been back on Facebook a week and I am already utterly annoyed. I will keep my page in case I need to get a hold of someone or someone wants to get a hold of me. Other than that, my real friends know to call me. Otherwise, they are not my real friends anyway.

Enough said.
