I recently found this quote on facebook and have it as my desktop background to help me remember that sometimes we just need to get up from the computer and get out of the house! <br />"Taking Time to Live Life, Will only Inspire Your Work"<br />And I did just that today. I enjoyed a wonderful 2 hour lunch with an old friend that I haven't seen in 8 months.khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02039448074178382326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017306041804208602.post-56928915540025612282012-02-15T18:33:40.335-08:002012-02-15T18:33:40.335-08:00You don't tweet?

Oh we need to get you on twitter! lol There aren't enough hours and sometimes most of those hours are spent here on the computer, with some multi tasking on dishes and laundry :-)I have 3 pages on fb plus my personal page, 4 blogs total, plus different groups all over the web.khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02039448074178382326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017306041804208602.post-70361042621039464412012-02-15T18:00:34.971-08:002012-02-15T18:00:34.971-08:00I get you.

At the same time...it does get to be, as you said in the comment to Stuart, a whirlwind. I need days where I can just breath! LOL Facebook, Twitter, Blogger...it does get too much at times! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017306041804208602.post-52269013047321275972012-02-15T15:33:12.568-08:002012-02-15T15:33:12.568-08:00Oh my, I don't even Tweet (yet) and I have a h...Oh my, I don't even Tweet (yet) and I have a hard time keeping up. I don't know how you do it! There are not enough hours in the day as far as I'm concerned, but that's a good thing, right? Sometimes I wish I didn't have to sleep! lolAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13160671849686091948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017306041804208602.post-31948014180471295682012-02-15T10:23:52.167-08:002012-02-15T10:23:52.167-08:00Hi Stuart!

I now follow your blog on wordpress, I have one there too :-) And headed your way real quick, because I actually have a lunch date with an old friend. Wow I am getting out of the house and off the computer for a couple of hours! Have a super awesome day!khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02039448074178382326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017306041804208602.post-5277195809494405232012-02-15T09:19:17.298-08:002012-02-15T09:19:17.298-08:00Oh, how I empathise!

Then I started writing for fun and now it's taken off and it's tweet, write, facebook, write, blog, write and so on, ad infinitum.<br />I have to say, though, that it's mainly great fun. I'm working hard to set time goals on social media. An experienced writer recently wrote that she restricted her time to an hour a day and she used a timer to call a halt. The rest of the time, she was being creative. If people don't like the lack of contact, then maybe that's just the way it has to be.<br />Good luck with the book - I'm off to check out some of your writing. Oh, and do some of my own!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
