Do something.
Will someone please tell me to put the iPad away and do some work.
OH I LOVE SEARCHING HERE.only problem is the time I spend gets longer and longer. |
If you find out how to do that, let me know. I am constantly saying to myself "DO SOMETHING!!!!" I spend LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGER every day.
|
OK ladies, put away the electronics and "DO SOMETHING" productive. Make something. I say this as I am cruising the board. :D
|
Well take your iPad into the sewing room so at least you are in the right spot when inspiration strikes.:D
|
There should be a 12 step program for this problem. Goodness knows enough of us suffer from the same thing!
|
Ditto to what everyone else says!!!!!!!!!
|
you could be productive first and make hanging out here your reward. just a suggestion. me... i'm off and on all day, mostly during breaks and meals :)
|
I understand it is hard to breakaway!
|
If you are reading this request you are not achieving the goal...

I used to be on the computer all the time checking for new posts here, but now I am on my iPad for way too long as I can take it everywhere with me! I am finding it hard to start sewing again after having both knees replaced last year, maybe if I could get off the iPad it would help! And also stop collecting old Singers (16 now) and getting them cleaned and working again!

I find that I have to set timer and when it goes off I shut off the electronics. Otherwise I would spend the day looking instead of doing! I have 8 mins left today:)
|
I know how you feel....But it is fun to browse this site and it is educational...
|
HAHAHA! somedays I sit down with a cup of coffee to search out 1 pc of info and BOOM! I look up and the coffee is cold and I've forgotten what I originally turned on the computer for! ok, I get a fresh cup and go back to folding laundry. OH wait! I remember-and I sit back down in front of the puter . . . yea, some days the internet AND the quilt board are bad for my productivity rating.

I'm in the same boat! I started playing this game, Candy Crush! Oh wow! I wish I had never started it!!!
|
The same goes for me. My husband cannot understand how I can be on my iPad for hours at a time. I have gotton so many patterns from the board and online, that I don't have time to make them because I am always on my iPad.
I told my son the other day that when I die to put my iPad in the coffin with me. That's how addicted I am. Lol |
I mainly get on here while it is slow at work, off and on.
I don't have an Ipad. I don't plan to get one. I am in the process of finishing my 12th quilt for this year. I work full time, have three cats, a dog and a pet bird. I sew in the evenings and on weekends when I do laundry and cleaning. Now see if you can get something done. |
I'm doing the same....get up very early just to get on the site, that way, I justify my time spent...oh yea, I'm addicted..
|
If you think you spend too much time here, never, NEVER sign up on Pinterest!
|
I love this thread. I posted earlier but find it refreshing to know I'm not the only one with this addiction. I can spend hours looking at fabric and then I play Words with Friends! Keep my Ipad on kitchen counter so with the push of a button, I can see if it my turn yet :-) I play several people including one of my sons so it is a lot of fun. Keeps me in touch with others I don't see.
|
It is 4 in the morning and after waking for a bathroom break I opened my iPad. One hour later still reading. Must go to sleep, but so many laughs.
