ITS BEEN A WHILE š
In fact I havenāt posted on this grid since before Christmas
Maybe you noticed, maybe you didnāt
I havenāt missed being on social media
I began to feel like a slave to the algorithm
If you run your own small business, perhaps you can relate
I posted consistently on social media for over seven years
It felt right for me at the time
But that time has now passed
Iāve decluttered my home and so many aspects of my life
Now itās time to minimise my online time
Itās time for other things
More time spent in the real world rather than the virtual world
Over the last few months Iāve enjoyed more time
Reading actual books
More time in nature
More face to face meet ups and phone calls
Playing more games
Listening to music
Iāll still be posting here, but much less frequently
Only when I feel like it and have something new to share that you might find interesting
So please stick with me (if youād like to), but if youāre not on here every day, you wonāt be missing out
If anyone else reads this and can relate, drop me a thumbs up or a comment, Iād be interested to hear how youāre feeling about spending time online

With you all the way Jo. I post much less frequently just when Iām in the mood. Great to not feel I have to post. Still think of all your words of wisdom when Iām have a sort out - always keeping on top of the clutter.
