I did an un-planned technology detox this past weekend. It was divine!

It also allowed me to approach the new work week with a fresh brain. I came up with some new ideas for some cool 'stuff' for our bodybuilding show competitors and our clients. New ideas for the charities I volunteer with. Overall, I think on Monday I was a whirlwind!
