I was off from 2000 to 2014. Read, raised my kids, tried crochet and sewing, pilates and yoga. Now I stay off if I’m in a particularly toxic funk, but usually only takes a week or so to pull out of it. When I’m not on I’m adulting or playing.

@JustNik that's an impressive effort. 14 years. Wow.

@Laughman ahhhh nope! Just realized I lied! 😂 I remember I got a facebook account because my daughter wanted one and I wouldn’t agree to it unless I was her “friend.” 😆 I never used it much but I know I posted pictures to it in 2009, so less impressive effort. LOL 👍

@JustNik ah your intentions are good though. Facebook was such a time waster back then. However it was exciting to use. Now it's just nothing.
