Why Do I hate life?
I am not living it, I am on electronics all the time. I am hiding in the computer, and my cell phone. While life is passing me by. I am living my life in a way that I am not enjoying. So my question is. Why? Why do I continue to do this if it doesn't make me happy.
Life is so short and I am missing out. I'll be dead soon. I don't regret never traveling to other countries (although I'd like to). I will regret living my life in a way that doesn't make me happy. especially when I have all the power in me to change it.
To make a list of what would make me happy.

Less electronic time
More time on the kids education
more time on my hobbies
More time working in the yard
More time planning and living a frugal life.
Living a life with purpose, with my purpose. rather than sitting as it passes me by.

Now that I know what I want to do. I need to figure out how to do it.
Should I cold turkey off electronics or should I wean off?
One thing I can do is. Any TV show that can be watched in the evening. NEEDS to be watch at the time that it is playing. Another thing that keeps me from doing what I need to do during the day is talking on the phone. while the people that I talk to are very important to me. I need to limit how much I talk to them. Beve 3 times a week. Patty 3 times a week.Sue and Dennis Daily.Checking my phone: I can check my phone every hour.. no sooner. do the important things first because you can't be on it longer than 10 timed minutes.
Lap top in the morning before boys wake up. in the evening after boys go to bed. If I can't get the swagbucks that I need during that time. Then I'll have to live without them.
I think this is a good start and something that I can do.
I'll add at take away from it after I see how well this works.
