Jun. 16th, 2012 05:48 pmMy family and I took a short-notice vacation to Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky this week. We got back last evening. We intentionally went to an area with poor cell reception and I left my computer behind. All of the stress-inducing problems that seemed insurmountable last week are now feeling more like the molehills they really are. The vacation was much needed and much appreciated.
( Mammoth Cave - No pictures, unfortunately )
I was feeling really good yesterday and this morning, but since then I've been checking my email and Facebook and my mood has just plummeted. I think social networking, specifically Facebook, is causing me mild depression. While I really like being able to share ideas and pictures with my family so easily, I really don't enjoy the stupid pictures and ill-thought-out political opinions and the web of people I'd rather not be in touch with being able to reach me so easily. I'm considering paring down my account to just my immediate family and a few select close friends I was in touch with before Facebook. For now I think I'll just keep my Facebook time to a minimum and see how I feel.
