Being away most of the week with limited web access makes me realize how much time I spend on a computer, specifically blogging, reading blogs, Tweeting, and perusing Facebook. It's kind of amazing, I think, seeing as this has just come about in the last 3 years or so. What did I do with my time before Tweets & blogging? Why did I have a pang of sadness/anxiety hitting "Mark as Read' to my 1000+ Google Reader? Because I like reading blogs & being "social", and despite it becoming a norm in life now, I have to remind myself, it's not the end of the world to unplug and step away from technology. So since I missed out on 1000+ posts, here's a lean list of faves and a pretty Newport mansion pic. :) Enjoy your weekend!
- Some fall makeup and skincare essentials @ Luella & June
- Spinach & artichoke pasta recipe...yum @ The Pioneer Woman Cooks
- Zara has launched Home @ Honestly WTF & Glitter Guide
Have a wonderful weekend...it is nice to get away from the computer really :) x

ReplyDeleteI enjoy blogging too! You really become attached to your readers and want to keep up with what's going on in their lives. On the weekends, I try to de-plug though. You definitely need to do things you love. Great post! Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI've had to create a very separate life offline but I do feel that it hurts my blogging. We need to find a way to balance the both! I think I should trying to follow your lead and do a Friday Favs post every week. I need some new focus!

PS: I'm obsessed with Zara Home but kind of disappointed in the prices.
You're lucky to have had a break from the interwebz. Lol. I cringe when I think about how much time I spend here. I honestly don't even remember how I filled my time before Facebook and even blogging. Oh god.
ReplyDeleteamen to THAT!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you!
ReplyDeleteI need to be out there more,

I've lost the battle with my Google Reader, but I think I'm to the point where I've stopped caring. Hope you enjoyed your time off lady!
