Distractions

I spend way too much time on computers, email, Facebook/Pinterest. These provide distraction from life. Not that life is bad, but not sure why I've gotten into this dependency on updates. I read an article that said they're like drugs. You're constantly seeking approval from people by watching for updates and comments to your postings. Ugh!

So....overall for the month of August...I have the following goals (let's keep it simple Amy.)

- Lose 10 lbs for the month. (I want this so bad I can taste it. Perhaps that's my issue.)
- Stay on top of requests at work.
- Improve communication skills.
- Limit computer use and television watching. Instead fill up this time with activities with the family, one hour of cleaning per day, and one hour of exercise.
- Be a nicer, more giving person.

Too much? Well I'll try focusing on certain ones during the day.

Today...
- I will drink only one drink of Diet Coke and 4 bottles of water.
- I will eat only 1000 calories of food and no more.
- I will finish my COM/CO request stellarly.
- I will not be distracted by my computer. I will focus on people, not technology.
