I have to change my evil ways.
It has become painfully obvious to myself and those around me that I have been dedicating too much time to blogging. I managed to take a hobby and turn it into a full blown addiction.
My name is Unknown Mami and I am a blog-oholic!
My blogoholism is affecting my relationships. My husband has told me that I am spending too much time blogging and it needs to stop. Put Pie is too young to complain, but she seems to notice that Mami spends a lot of time in front of the computer.
Blogoholism is affecting my job performance. Part of what I do for a living involves working on the computer from home. Lately, when I’m supposed to be working I’m in the blogosphere.
I am taking the first step and acknowledging that I have a problem. Unlike other addictions I do not intend to give up this habit just taper down a bit. I thought putting it in writing would be a good way to commit to this easier, breezier form of blogging.
From now on, I vow:
- not to post every day (I intend to take Wednesdays and Saturdays off)
- to set aside a particular time each day for blogging and blog related activities instead of letting myself do it every spare moment I have because some of those moments are not really spare
- to give myself a break; it’s supposed to be fun not a chore
- to take the good and leave the bad
