Taking a Break from Social Media

I did it! And the world didn’t fall apart. 🤷‍♀️🤣🥱 I haven’t posted on this IG space for like 3 weeks. And in the meantime, I travelled through lots of countries and landed back home in Georgia. (Aren’t these Roman aqueducts fabulous?!) But I didn’t post much about the trip. And that’s is a lot coming from a person (me!) who feels “guilty” not posting one day. Can we all just agree that that is stupid? 🤯 And I can honestly say I haven’t missed it. Instead of spending an hour daily ❎Checking to see if “how well I did” the day before. ❎Working on a reel for an hour to have it reach 200 people. ❎Researching to see the trending music and reels are. ❎Constant comparison in my life. ❎And the competition with myself to feel that I could have done something better. So since we got home from the month-long family trip, The big kids went to church camp. Littlest went to a weekend camp. We hung with friends and just rested up. It took me too long to get back to normal sleep! And I worked on other projects. I finished a blog post about DC that I had been procrastinating for about six months even though it was mostly done because it wasn’t “good enough”. I updated lots of Virginia road trip posts that needed work. I started several travel posts from scratch including a Scotland itinerary. And I am working on organizing and planning my online life better. 🤣That’s funny. Organized for now. If you’re one of the people who viewed my blog 5000 times last month, thank you. 👉If you’re not, go check it out! If you want to start a blog, know that it’s a giant time commitment that needs more guidance than I got. 👉If you think blogs are dying, I’d love to chat… Because maybe I’m the only one who still uses them? ❤️So thanks for being in this space. Here’s to finding the balance between this social (and others) and truly being present in real life. May it teach you a lesson about priorities. 👉Tell me something awesome you would like more time for… Books. Crafting. Lay like broccoli 😉 (Stupid) Exercise? 🤷‍♀️ . . . . . 👏🏻👏🏻Bonus life points for getting my obscure movie reference. . . .
