Internet Vacation and Priorities

[sherryinutah]

Have you ever taken a vacation from the internet?

I'm planning to do just that in December.  I'm taking it to the extent of canceling my service to focus on other priorities.

Even if I need to do some shopping I can stop by the Public library in town to do some quick ordering, check email, etc.

I might even make it a priority to relocate.

What are your highest priorities?

I have a couple of online businesses so it is hard for me to stay completely off the Internet.
There is always customer support to take care of daily.

i could only do that for about a day would have to pretend the pc broke or no electric. i can go hours without looking at this dumb *bleep* thing no no this wonderful helpful thing.

My highest priority right now is passing my class I'm taking so I can move on with my goal. I can't keep off the internet for long. It's essential for me.

How would I make December Fusion Cash cashout if I did that!?!        Although I am working on a blog item that is loosely based on priorities in light of Thanksgiving and some recent life events.


Would like to post a link here to get some feedback, but I don't want to get into any trouble and risk my December Fusion Cash cashout...

I have taken a vacation from the Internet when I was on holiday once before but I constantly felt out of touch. I worried constantly that there was news that I was not receiving. I hated not being able to speak to someone the moment I wanted to and the vacation turned out to be quite stressful because of it. In principle I like the idea of it, but in reality I don't think I can do it. To be honest, I don't think I want to do it either!

I don't have the option to take a vacation from the internet as I have a small business that relies on the internet so I won't be taking a vacation from it.  Several months ago I had my phone line come down and I was without the internet for 7 days which was quite a hassle having my son using his computer for me.

It would give me too much anxiety to take a vacation from the Internet. I already did this month, not by my will! Our service provider went out of business and while we waited a week for the new provider to get set up, no Internet. I was so stressed not being able to make my pocket change! These sites are very important to me.

I took a short vacation from the internet, when I visited my sister in another state a few months ago. But I couldn't do it for long. I have too many projects and sites going. I really do wish that I wasn't so attached to the computer and internet, but it's a hard addiction to break. Why would I want to, anyway, if I can earn money online? I do take breaks from particular sites when I get burned out.

I like the idea but I wish I can do it. It is hard not to try and earn some money on FC. That is if I take a vacation from the internet. It would be too difficult for me. Although I can totally take a vacation from my phone that would be doable!

No. I enjoy driving. just as long as the freeways are clear

Never never have I thought about taking a vacation from the internet ... as a matter of fact .. when I do go on vacation I usually look for a place that has internet access in the room.

Yea we will see how long that lasts and good luck at the library

I think I can't... It seems it part of my daily life now.  I have to come on at least once a day.
