It's been a few weeks since I have done much of anything on the computer. Actually, I am typing this as we speak on my iPhone, so excuse any crazy auto correct ;) But for once in my life it has felt good to take a break from most of the screens in my life. I've been using my iPhone to keep up with emails, pay some bills, map stuff for driving directions, and look up the occasional website or peruse FB for 5 minutes.
Since we just moved into a new house, at first I was offline because I was busy packing and cleaning. Then I was off because our internet was not hooked up at the new house yet. Then I was too busy UNpacking to get online. Now I just don't want to get sucked back into the mindless time wasting of social networking, online window shopping, etc. So I've been avoiding our desktop, and only using my iPhone a few times a day.
I hate how obsessed I can become with being on the computer, so this is how I stay away I guess. I just wanted to post a short update, so I figured via iPhone while the kiddos watch tv is a good way to go.
We moved into a house in Kent at the beginning of August, with Mike's cousin Tammy, her husband Steve and their 1.5 year old son Gabriel. Today is my last day watching Gage at his house. I'll be a stay at home mom for about 2.5 weeks before I start working for Lakeside Montessori in Issaquah again, and Sean will be starting there in his own classroom at the beginning of September. Mike is still working in the yard at BNSF, but he's getting ready to be a conductor again (temporarily) so his work schedule is about to get wacky for a few months, and sometimes he'll be gone for 1-2 days at a time.
Not sure what else to say, but if you're reading this and want to keep in touch with me, just know that I think I'll still be checking FB occasionally but my goal is not not be on there nearly as much as I used to be. Feel free to call or text me if you want :) Peace!!
PS- here are a few pics just to make this post a little more interesting ;)
