I'm Addicted!!

It's never easy to face up to one's shortcomings. And now I find myself face to face with and having to admit to yet another addiction!!

I've been facing up to and dealing with the food "addiction" for several months now. I joined Weight Watchers (AGAIN!) for the umpteenth time in January and as a result am dealing with and conquering that addiction. So far, 23 pounds lighter than I was when I joined. I hesitate to say I've "lost" 23 pounds because it seems that implies I would like to find them, and that is most definitely NOT the case :)

My computer has recently spent a few days with the Geek Squad folks. With many thanks to them, it is now back at home and running ever so much more efficiently than before. But these few days without it have forced me to face up to yet another addiction......facebook!!! It has been so much fun to reconnect with friends and to know what's going on with them. And since this computer sits on the bar between the kitchen and family room, and since I walk past it umpteen times a day, I was in the habit of taking a quick peek at the status pages nearly every time I walked by. I really missed that over the last few days!

But even more than keeping up with my friends I confess to an absolute addiction to some of the facebook games, particularly Word Hunt. I love word games anyway, but this one has grabbed me like no other. So, after realizing that I could actually get through the day without multiple word hunts, I'm trying to avoid it for a few more days and see if I can break the addiction cycle here as well. Not that I will completely give it up, mind you, but I need to get control here......I really do have other things to do!!

As for the addiction to coffee, well.......that's one addiction I'm holding on to :)
