February - the month of fasting.

This is the last Sunday I will be on the computer until March 5th.

I'll be draining my battery this Tuesday night, and then packing it away for a whole month. And the same with my phone, and I'll have my sister hide the television remote from me. No TV, computer, or cell phone for an entire month. Do you think you could do that? I bet you could. You should try it some time. If not a whole month, then a whole week. Technology vacation. It'll give you time to focus of the things that really matter in life. God, your spouse, your children, yourself. Step away from all of the glass/plastic screens and look at the world through your own two eyes.

Also, with my Unplugged month, I'll be saving my money, and going on juice diets. Regardless of my acid reflux. I'll just eat more Tums or something. Two of the five weeks in February will be spent with me just drinking Bolthouse Farms juices and water, and maybe some soup every now and then.

I'll be doing a lot of reading, so if you have any suggestions of what book(s) I should read, I'll be able to go to the library, let me know before Tuesday night.

I made a plan. So now I have a plan.
That's usually what happens when you make plans.

I will still be able to use my camera in February, but I will not be able to upload them onto a computer. So what I'm going to do is take a picture of myself every day, thumbs up if I had a good day, thumbs down if I had a bad day. And then on March 1st, when I "plug" everything back up, I'll upload all of those pictures to Facebook.

Speaking of March 1st, it's Ke$ha's birthday. It's also Justin Bieber's birthday. But most importantly, it's Self-Injury Awareness Day. And for Self-Injury Awareness Day, to show support, for the people suffering or recovering from self-harm, you wear an orange ribbon. If you don't have/can't find an orange ribbon, you can just wear anything orange. With the ribbon, people will/can ask what it's for. But with you just wearing orange, I doubt anyone would ask. But you can show support in silence. As long as you're thinking about and praying for those suffering or recovering from self-harm. They need your prayers and support to get better as much as they need your love. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-injury_Awareness_Day
Show support, you have at least one person to think about/pray for on that day. Me.
