A New Beginning

Take a deep breath!  Life is about to get a whole lot different...  After deciding I truly wanted to make a change in my life, I realized I would need to start doing something more radical to change things.  First on the list involved Facebook.  I routinely checked facebook about 20 times per day, trying to see the latest deals as well as follow up on how my friends were doing.  Without realizing it, I was constantly bombarding myself with ads and "buy me" links.  First on the agenda today - hiding or "unliking" pages that encouraged my spending habits.  I unliked those pages I knew I had subscribed to simply to find deals on things to spend money.  I "hid" items that I truly liked (such as Oreo cookies), but that I no longer wanted solicitation from.  The irony is that I hid everything in view, backed out of it and when I went back in a few more popped up.  This just shows me once again how deeply entrenched I was.  Praise God that I feel I'm finally getting some breathing room!
