Screen Time

I have often read about parents trying to manage their children's screen time but sometimes in my house I think it is me who needs to rein in my screen time. It is just so easy to get caught up reading blogs or checking out Facebook or family history research. I really like my computer time but I don't want my life to be online and not in the real world afterall, then there would be nothing real to write about. In fact I really don't know how some people seem to manage to do so much and be able to write about it too. I wish I knew their secret to time management. I'm not even sure what a good balance is supposed to be. I guess it is different for everyone. I would probably spend on average an hour a day, six days per week online with blogging, emails and bits and pieces. Sometimes maybe a little more.How much time do others spend online?

Anyway, in my real world today, I have been doing some lovely things like making brownies and lime curd muffins, weeding the purple dragon carrot bed, planting some snow pea  and coriander seeds and I even did a samurai sudoku (which I love doing). We had a visitor to take Tom's picture for The Land newspaper and a phone call from my youngest sister. I also made some more compost which is about as unlovely as can be but oh so good at the same time. I also did a mountain of folding and ironing which has been waiting for a couple of days (lazy I know but it is the holidays). Doesn't make for much of a blog post but it is how it is in my very real and very ordinary home.
