Free Your Mind!

I've mentioned recently that I have felt overwhelmed.  Today, I decided to step away from the computer for the most part.  After I dropped B boy off at preschool, I came home to do some cooking. 


I cannot even convey how much I did not realize that I missed cooking.  Especially cooking from scratch.   


I turned on Pandora and got busy!
I whipped up a double batch of pumpkin muffins.
I boiled some chicken to make chicken broth and to use the chicken for homemade chicken pot pie.
I got things ready for a salad to go with dinner.
I cut up a pork tenderloin for chops later next week.


My mind felt so free and clear.  I was in such a great mood!  I began to think that maybe social media has been making my brain crazy!  Honestly, when you are on Twitter a lot, you do feel pressure to do things that other bloggers are doing.  I think the pressure sometimes gets to me and I should not let it!


I felt better today than I have in a long time!  I think I will take more time away from social media from now on!

  1. Hey, that's the way I felt when I was cut off the net for several days. All of a sudden I started doing the things I actually also like to do and I even did most of them together with my little guy. You're right, it opens your mind so to speak.
