Taking A Break

After today, I won't be online much, if at all. The only time I might be on will only be for a few minutes and business only. I've taken a step back and looked at myself. And I've realized I don't like me when I'm online. I'm addicted to the internet. That's obvious. I'm online for long periods of time. Usually all day. So of course I don't get anything done. And my house shows it. It's a horrible mess that makes me want to scream and it's not fair to my family. Not only that but I'm not nice when I'm online. I get frustrated and angry with my children much easier. I don't know why that is. And I don't give my kids enough attention. Not nearly enough. So what you have most days is a unkempt mother in an unkempt house who doesn't pay much attention to her kids and when she does it just to yell at them for aggrivating her. When I'm online I'm no good as a mother, no good as a wife and no good as a child of God.
I don't know when or if I will be back on socially and for fun. If you want to keep in touch with me through letter writing and what not, you can email me at bug333@cableone.net . I will be online today only to check my email. You should know I love to write and receive letters but I hate to talk on the phone. If you want my #, I'll give it. (If I know you of course) But I'm no good talking.
Thanks to all the people who befriended me. I don't make friends easily but I love the ones I do have. I hope we can stay in touch.

Love in Christ,
Marietta Faith

Marietta,

Take heart - I know your decision is tough, but I sense it is best for now. I too have stepped back tremendously in the past 6 months. I've had to make it gradual, but I've stopped IMing people much, I've pulled out of every email group, and this week I decided I just don't want to blog anymore either.

I'm praying for you as I hope you'll pray for me. Praying that God will fill this place in your life and that both of us will go to a deeper level in our relationships with Him.
