- Catch up on some scrapbooking.
- Sing more nursery rhymes to the baby.
- Experiment in the kitchen. I made chicken rendang for the first time.
- Do more house cleaning. I finally washed my curtains. Cleaned the fans today too.
- Write articles for submission later on. I wrote an article on golf (something I know about) so I didn't have to do much research on the internet for that.
- Exercise. Go for walks and play badminton with the kids in the evening.
- Read more books to the children.
- Take naps.

Internet Withdrawal Syndrome
Friday my internet got zapped by lightning. Only today did they get it up and running again. Meanwhile, I had to endure internet withdrawal symptoms. Like a smoker trying to quit, I had to find something to substitute my "loss". So, what can you do when you're disconnected from the internet world?

THose are all great ways for dealing with no internet. I love reading so, I would just catch up on the book I'm reading. OR I would knit. I just picked that back up recently and it's so much fun.

ReplyDeleteGuess we all belong to the internet addiction club :)
huisia:
Yup, can tahan only 1-2 days. After that start cursing streamyx for not working faster to solve the problem.
mumsgather:
Oh,I had my "breakdown" moments. heheheh. I would sit down and feel kinda lost, wondering if so-and-so had answered my mail or there was something I just had to check. Crazy!
anggie's journal:
Ya, it's like have to fill the gap.
swings:
I'm sure once you start knitting, it's hard to put it down. What are you working on?
He He easy to say hard to get over the addict..somehow I will source elsewhere like relative's place or office to get in. He He!
ReplyDeleteNew blogger here .. so not so hooked yet. Wonder what I will do if I really get hooked and one day deprived of it .. hmmm ... need to do some pondering.

ReplyDeleteWah, I think you have it worse than me. Hahahha. But then, I'm too far away from friends and relatives to invade their home. Or else I think I would do it too :)
family first:
Best thing is to ponder how NOT to get hooked in the first place. Prevention better than cure :)
I definitely have big time internet withdrawal syndrome. One time my internet was down for 8 long days and I was sooo terribly miserable that 8 days haha...
