It seems like every day I have these great intentions of making cookies, cakes, etc. I really want to practice but all I do is get on my computer and spend all my time on CC
I love this site but I need to remove myself from the computer any advice would be appreciated!!!!! ![]()
Does anyone else feel this way???
I have the same problem sometimes. The internet can be a great tool, and so can Cake Central, but neither should take the place of real life.
The only thing that works for me (and it doesn't always) is to set a computer time limit for myself. I also try to use computer time as a reward for finishing tasks. It can take over your life and your brain if you let it!
Nobody wants his/her obituary to read: He/she frittered away his/her life browsing the internet.
Moderation is a good thing! I'm trying to learn that. ![]()
I HAVE BEEN SPENDING HOURS ON HERE SINCE I DISCOVED THIS SITE. I LAUGHED WHEN I READ THAT THIS SITE WAS ADDICTIVE FOR THE FIRST TIME, BUT, I TRULLY NEED TO STOP!!!!!!!
WELL MAYBE TOMORROW.....
OR MAYBE NEXT WEEK....
WHO KNOWS MAYBE I CAN WAIT TILL NEXT MONTH TO TRY QUITTING.
OH MY GOSH! DO THEY MAKE A PATCH OR SOMETHING??????????
I have to leave the computer off until I get my morning routine done, and then as my reward it goes on. Then I check my email, go to CC (setting my timer), then off goes the computer until after dinner. It bites but ya gotta do what ya gotta do! ![]()
I couldnt live without my computer I turn it on when I get up and it pretty much stays on unless I actually leave the house lol The time that I turn it off is when dh gets home for supper then once he goes to bed I'm back on.
But I dont let it prevent me from getting my work done around the house or playing with the dog but I have pretty muche stopped my pleasure reading as well as my quilting which is really a shame because I really enjoyed them lol
hmmmm time to get looking through my books and boxex of odd material lol oh heck tomorrow is soon enough. ![]()
I have been home from work for the past 3 weeks recovering froma hysterectomy. CC has been my saving grace. I have been on here for the majority of the 3 weeks!! I love it. I am also on here every night when I do get home from work and sometimes in the morning before I leave for work and then during my breaks at work I am on here. Yes I do think someone should invent a patch for this kind of behavior!!!!
I try so hard to stay away but CC just keeps pulling me in!!
I will walk bye and say oh I'll just check to see if there's anything new in this post - 5 hours later I might get up and check on my kids
Just kidding but CC has become another one of my kids (constanly checking to make sure everythings ok, feeding the hunger, making boo boo's feel better, and giving a that boy/girl when needed, and getting a good laugh every now and then - holy cow I do have 4 kids) ![]()
Yeah, I didn't realize how addicted I was until my six year old mentioned it to me. It is so easy when you have wireless and you can surf anywhere!
I still need a lot of practice. You can take a look at my pictures and you'll see that is true. ![]()
I bake a cake at least once a week for someone. Sometimes, I'm making two a night. If I'm not baking, I'm getting ideas and tips on how to make the next cake better.
I tell my husband that I am doing research!
CC is the best reseach - so many ideas, tips and great decorators!! I am addicted! Ok, now I really do have to go do something I have a cake due Friday and I am still making the gumpaste figures! ![]()
Ta Ta for now - I'll ck back in a few moments(ha ha)
