Internet Addiction TestThat was wierd. I tried the widget-type thingy on the website and it just published its own post. I clicked on this through Elizabeth Foss’ blog. Took it and my only objection to it is that there’s no option on ANY of the questions for NEVER. I thought that was odd and maybe makes it a little inaccurate.

Just to be real, I scored a 25. Honestly, I think I would have scored lower but there was no option for “NEVER”. I never think about being on the internet when I’m not. My horrible habit is checking my email. If I could curb that, I’d be fine.

I check 2 blogs nearly every day in the morning (yes even before my prayers) while the coffee is percolating because I usually find them to be interesting or inspiring. That’s about it. On Thursdays and Fridays, I look forward to 3 blogs that host “linky” parties for people who post DIY projects or recipes. I admit, they inspire me and I’ve acted on that inspiration.

I’ve been pretty negligent in posting on my own blog(s) only because I haven’t organized the time. If it meant more to me, I’d organize a specific time to make it more regular. I like writing and I like the record but I rarely would rather do that in the place of reading or being with the kids or actually getting something accomplished in the house. Believe it or not, I take photos of most of the things I accomplish in the house but then don’t feel like posting about it. That’s totally fine by me for now. There may be a time when I derive satisfaction from that. Probably when all the kids are more independent in their schoolwork or spend most of the day in school.

I could probably go nuts in thrift stores and yard sales but that goes against my inclination to purge and simplify.

Take the test. It probably will give you a decent picture.
