The tyranny of the pc!

Just a quickie cos I have not been on for a while and am aware that I started to feel I OUGHT to be writing my Blog, rather than wanting to. Life has speeded up rather a lot recently and I am finding that I really resent the way I am allowing my pc to rule my day. From first thing when I check my emails, to last thing at night, when I check again I seem to spend ages in front of this machine. How did something which was supposed to free us up from some hard graft (and create a paperless office - ha!) become such a hard taskmaster?

Anyway, the upshot is, that after a lovely few days RnR in Menorca with Alex, staying with my brother, I have decided to do far less, if I can, at the pc, and ask people to phone me if it is important as I am not going to check things so often or reply so quickly. And I am trying to cut down the time in front of the screen to help my poor shoulder repair itself as it has got pain from sitting too long in front of the screen. Let's see what happens!

And if anyone has any suggestions for how to manage emails better so let me know....
