Reflection

It has been an interesting Lent spending less time on the internet and less time posting on this blog. It amazed me that there was so much in my folders that I was able to post things from my files for the majority of the time.


It was nice not feeling compelled to search for new things to post. I did miss not having new things to look at on my blog. I did miss not posting new things when I found them.


So what has changed, what will be different? Hopefully I will edit better and not post just to have a post. Only time will tell...
