I've never participated in giving something up (or doing something extra) for Lent, but this year I decided to try it out. So I gave up facebook!
*gasp*
So, from March 9 until April 24, facebook is off-limits. No stalking people's pictures, checking out new babies, wedding pictures, Spring Break pictures, etc. No reading statuses, no updating my own status. No nothing. If I want to talk to someone, I have to CALL or TEXT them! Omg, right?
Really, though, it's not that bad. I mean, I have a ton of pictures of my cute boys that I'm dying to share with the world and I still find myself wanting to post song lyrics or quotes from Ryger as my status. But I'm okay with this. Honestly, I figured I'd be rocking back and forth in the corner with my thumb in my mouth before the weekend hit. But I surprised myself.
Instead, I've found extra time for my husband and kids, and have spent more time doing daily devotionals through www.crosswalk.com.
So, facebook friends, I'll be back in a few weeks! :-)
