I Caved

For awhile now I have been telling myself how much I do not need an ipad. Well, today I caved in and bought one, and I love it! Although I do still feel a little bit guilty for buying it. I have been trying very hard to be less materialistic. If I have not said this before I am really into electronics. Honestly I do not know much about how they work, but I am all about the latest gadget. However, in the past I would get to thinking that my life was not going to go on if I did not get something. That feeling is what I have been working on. I know people who treat their electronics like they are people and are always on them no matter what. That is not how I want to be.
That leads me to a suggestion that I had for my husband recently. I said that I thought we should go unplugged one night a week. No TV, no cell phones, no computer...None of it!! That way we could talk or play games go for a walk etc. He is not being to receptive to it, but I think he will come around. If anyone is already doing this let me know how it works for you!

  1. I don't really see a point in it. Hope you enjoy it just the same though!!! I do know a few people who have them. but I'm the type who honestly would give it all up to live secluded on a farm.
