Well, it's just after 8:15 in the morning and I am exhausted. I'm headed to bed for some serious sleep, but first I have to leave an update for everyone.
Today is day one, not just for my pornography struggles, but also for my devotions and prayer time. My goal is to have it first thing in the "morning" whenever I wake up. I also wanted to change some of the rules. I've found that almost everytime, if the internet plays a part in my failure, it takes place in my first 27 or so internet minutes. After that, the only thing the time limitations do is to keep me from doing research on something that interests me. I'm going to try something new. I'm not allowed to open Internet Explorer without supervision so there has to be a legitimate reason, and my Opera time is essentially unlimited. See I really like to use Opera and that's my main web browser, but I always use Internet Explorer for looking up anything inappropriate so that the history and ghost files don't show up in Opera where people could see them. Sneaky, just one more way of avoiding desperately needed accountability.
Another thing I'm going to do is set alarms. The time I struggle the most is right when I wake up and I'm laying in "bed" and the computer is right beside me. I get off work at roughly 7:30 am and I'm going to sleep until noon when my parents get home for lunch. How does it help? Simple, my parents are home and I'm forced to get up for lunch. Thursdays will be my exception as no one comes home. I think I'm going to enjoy Thursdays for the extra sleep.
That's all I have for now. If anyone has good Bible readings or prayer requests, comment or email or facebook!! Thanks a lot and as always, your prayers are greatly appreciated.
