Week Off

I decided that it would be a good idea to fast from the internet for a week starting tomorrow, along with TV. I'll still use the computer, but that is work related. However, I think that the internet is taking up a lot of my time lately and I need to focus that time elsewhere, so I'll be taking a break.

Anyway, I just had to share... yesturday I went shopping and snagged some MORE deals! I love deals! I'm a good Mennonite... (hahahaha). Anyway, for less than $45 I got all that is in the photo below: an over-the-door shoe organizer, two wood/glass candle lanterns, 4 packs of different picture hanging hardware, a 6-piece cloth dish protector pack, a calendar/organizer, a queen duvet cover and shams in chocolate brown/grey-blue (I'd been looking for a duvet cover for a long time already, and this one was just what I was looking for, and less than $20), and 3 bright colored throw blankets (perfect for picnics!). Woo Hoo! I love Liquidation World... especially when they are clearing out older stock to make way for a new shipment... my sis works there so I get 'inside tips' on when they are selling out stuff! I'm thinking of buying a sheet set for a twin bed for Marin as all their sheets are 50% off right now.



Anyway, I'll miss reading all your blogs the next week... and writing in my own blog as well. I'll see you all next week! Have a great one!

Dude, Sab, you are a serious bargain shopper! That's amazing.

Hope you find your blog fast productive and restful; just don't forget to come back after the week is over!

Good luck with your internet challenge this week. I was proud to make it to one through one computer-free weekend, but it's not something I want to repeat in a hurry! I'll look forward to hearing what you've been up to when you return.

What great buys! I'm going to miss your posts too!

Becky said...

I will miss you!!! You can come back sooner if you want:)

I've been thinking about doing something similar... I haven't quite made up my mind yet, but it has been more than a passing thought as of late. Let us know how it goes!

Yah, I've been considering doing an Internet fast, too. I find that I really lose my motivation for doing anything productive after I've spent a big chunk of my day online. It's amazing how much I get done if Lee takes the laptop to work! As far as TV goes, Lee & me have found that cutting down on the amount we watch & how late we stay up watching really helps our marriage...and our health!

Enjoy your week off from blogging. Our teenage lost his cell phone for a week and found out that he had more time for things.
