Off to the Country

March 2, 2008 by Lillie 

I am taking a few days off to visit my sister on the farm and will not have access to a computer or the Internet. I’m looking forward to spending time with my sister, seeing the farm and the cattle, and being away from work and the computer for a little while.

Hi Lillie! Enjoy your vacation from work and from the computer! I have to admit I got into the bad habit of making sure there is an internet connection wherever I go for a shorter or longer break. I guess I should take your example on my next trip.

You’ll be missed, but we all deserve a vacation every now and then. Have fun and I’ll pray that your travel is a safe one.

Hi Lillie
I recently had a few weeks with no computer access. I found it very liberating and rejuvenating. We don’t realize how dependent we become on technology.

Enjoy your break!

Getting away from the computer once in a while is very important i think. You need to get out, breathe fresh air and just lose the tether to the internet occasionally. ENJOY IT!!!!

Have a great vacation Lillie!

I’m a firm believer that rest refreshes the mind. You’ll find yourself to be more efficient when you come back.

Enjoy your time away. I have terrible allergies (to animal fur, hay, just about everything), so I envy folks who can go to farms without having to take a mega-dose of benadryl before they go. :-) I’m sure you’ll enjoy the lack of technology!

I think after working for long in the country every person gets tired and needs a change. Such kinds of visits to farm are very benefital as it increases productivity of a person.

Thanks, Yvonne. I think of the days when it took weeks or months for a letter to reach its destination, and we’re appalled if we can’t reach someone instantly via phone or e-mail.

I get that from dust if I clean out a closet or something. Corn starch helps mine.
