Going off the grid 😊

Yesterday I was faced with one more solicitation to expand or upgrade my storage capacity plan on Google and I get the same solicitations for the Apple and Jennifer had just gotten them and we were talking about it so you know I almost clicked on it. I almost upgraded my plan to spend a little more money every month to have more space and then you know I just thought about it and said I don’t need all these emails. Why am I saving all these emails? Why am I searching through all these emails to see what I should save and what I should delete I just decided to delete them all so I deleted all of my previous emails and that means I have no paper Trail for Fidelity or Wells Fargo. I have no history of emails with any of my friends and you know what I’m thinking is anything we send in the future I’ll have and I’ll probably delete that too because the reality of it is once you read it it’s done and that’s part of this process part of this process of getting older and trying to decide what I should keep and what I should get rid of including things in the garage and around the house you just have to do it. It’s difficult but I decided yesterday I would delete all my emails and today I don’t miss them and on top of that I deleted my Fidelity widget so I can’t see what my balance is today on Fidelity and I deleted my newsfeed so I can’t glance at the headlines and you know why because these are essentially toxic relationships I mean you know if I glance at the headlines I get an Eiffel I get a mindful even if I don’t read the whole article. The headline enough is enough to disturb me one way or the other most of the headlines today disturbed me in a negative way the others are kind of bait and switch or as Sam would call them click bait so I got rid of the news widget I got rid of the Fidelity widget and I got rid of all my old emails and so far today, I’m doing pretty well. I’m waiting for my new Moon Cool trike to be delivered and I might get an update. I might not but the website tells me it’s due today and when it shows up, I’ll know it’s here and that’s the way I feel about news all of this bad news all of this prediction of the world‘s coming to an end and Trump‘s gonna destroy us you know and no, we’re not gonna have democracy anymore. Well, maybe that’s true. Maybe it’s not true but thinking about it only bothers me. It doesn’t change things. My life is pretty close to perfect and so I’ve decided that kind of leave it that way let my life be as perfect as it is or as flawed as it is and just go with it.
