I said no to blogging yesterday.
You “everydayers” should try it sometime. We can have a “Say No” REVOLUTION!
Now go add that to your “to-do” list.
QUESTION: When was the last time you said no to something? Didn’t it feel great!?!
splendid…lindsay
I just took your advice, and said no :) With a link back to this post, of course!
Go you! I’ve said ‘no’ pretty much 2-3 times a week since I started student teaching and I can’t complain! Sometimes its nice to unplug!
LOVE THIS! Just wrote a post on what it’d be like to not blog.
I think the ‘Just Say No’ campaign from the 80s needs to make a comeback. I need to work on my ‘no’ skills. It’s hard when you are a people pleaser!
I know how you feel! There are some days when I just don’t have anything to write about and I just don’t feel like it! This usually occurs on Saturdays, thus a Sunday post doesn’t go out. And you know? Life went on!
I said no to some McDonald’s last night, as that is what the family was eating, and instead made myself a healthy chicken and black bean dinner. Theirs might have smelled a little better, but it felt good to turn down the junk and eat healthy! ha
I said no to sleeping in as I knew I could nap later. Meantime, I feel better if I get my day rolling. Now to say no to those late night snacks….
I totally get why you’d say no to blogging, but I usually reserve that for the weekends (not posting.) I like blogging every day during the week! :) But if I didn’t, I definitely wouldn’t…
After two years of posting something EVERY DAY, I finally gave up weekends (starting two weeks ago). I still cooked, still took pictures, and still thought about my blog…but even the act of not posting gave me some sense of relief I didn’t even know I needed.
Giving up a weekday though? Not sure if I’m ready. ;)
I said no to blogging last week. And no to workouts. It did feel pretty great. Mnus the whole sick thing. LOL
Tell ’em, girl!
I have a rule that I only blog when I feel like it (and feel like I have something worthy of sharing). This is why I rarely post on weekends- I just don’t feel like sitting at a computer when I’m FREE!
Oh I love you :). I said no to blogging yesterday too. And I said no to denying my cravings and gave in with some delicious fro-yo!
mmm…fro-yo!
Haha… my problem is that I’m addicted to saying no. It’s like a sport for me :)
Great idea! I scaled back to M-F for this reason, can’t let it take over your life! :)
Sometimes a break from blogging is needed! It’s not a crime to not blog for a day! ;)
I almost never blog on the weekends, and it never crosses my mind. I said “no” to the gym yesterday, and took a long walk with my dog in the beautiful weather instead!
Walking (or running) my dogs wins over the gym any day of the week- especially in this weather!!
Hm I tried to comment and it booted me out. Here’s take two:
I’m GLAD you did this! It can be so easy to stay connected ALL the time but sometimes disconnecting to reconnect with your IRL “life” is more important! Good for you!
Thanks, Jess!! Might do it again real soon!
Good for you!! It’s so liberating to say no and things (often self-imposed, at least for me) hanging over your head. I’m with you on the “Say No” revolution!
i have been doing the same thing about once a week. it’s freeing! :) good for u!
