The plans for today (heh) + thoughts about being online

I am strongly thinking about taking a break from reading the news and only looking online at WordPress, my bank/credit accounts, the weather, amazon/walmart/kohl’s, and my email. I almost had a panic attack the other night after reading about the possibility of losing our health insurance and social security because of statements Trump made. I don’t want to feel that way again about something unless it’s actually happening.

I also don’t want or need to look at things on my home page, like stocks, random articles, or memes. If I’m in the mood for articles, I will look them up on Google based on what I want to read at that time! If I’m in the mood for humor, I will go to pleated jeans. And if I’m in the mood to see what stocks are doing, I will change my mood!!! lol

I just feel like I’m overstimulated by all the swirling information that comes at me when I’m online. So, I’m going to experiment with going down to using the things I said above, and I’ll let you know how it goes. 🙂


Here are my plans* for today

  • make a big turkey and cheese sub for the kids to have for lunch
  • cook hotdogs and put them in the fridge so Maggie can make crescent roll doggies for dinner while I’m at work tonight
  • tidy the living room
  • walk one mile
  • sort the papers on my desk
  • Isabella’s shower
  • help Stephen with his foot
  • work from 3-7pm
  • begin preparing Joshua’s papers for psych appointment

*subject to change, lol

It’s already 11 o’clock and I haven’t even showered so let’s see how much I can get done! What do you have planned for today?
