Story of my life....COD
Today I decided to dedicate my blog to all the ladies out there whose boyfriends play COD….ALL THE TIME!!! All the parents who are battling kids wanting to live in world of video games instead of..well…being KIDS!
I feel for you, I really do! (As I too am currently listening to gunfire in the background and my hubby bitching and moaning about all the idiots he got stuck with on his team.)
Now this game…I really do not mind it! I’m not one of those annoying, bitchy girlfriends that yell at him (though I think it) to get off the game because it consumes his life (it really does). I find other ways to keep myself busy or support him and watch or play too!
But this has got me thinking…People seriously LIVE on COD!! It consumes their lives!! WHY?! Why do we sit in front of a television ALL day EVERY day playing stupid video games?? Yes, video games are made to be addicting. CLEARLY they live up to that! But why do people let themselves get so addicted and hooked on the game that they miss out on enjoying life? I was just at my sisters earlier today, its in the 70s and sunny for the first time in FOREVER (yay Spring is here FINALLY!!) and my 10 year old nephew is asking his dad if he can play COD…Really little dude?! You are 10!! Get your butt outside and enjoy the weather!! What is society coming to!? Back when I was his age I was out riding bikes, shooting guns, playing tag, and enjoying the sunshine! Kids AND ADULTS these days just don’t care anymore!
SAD!
My proposal, if you are one of these game addicts and know you spend too much time playing… limit your time on the console. Give yourself a half hour or an hour then shut it off and get out and get active!
If you have a significant other that takes game addict to a whole new level try to talk to them about limiting time ^. OR play with him!! Now you may be saying play with him? “I suck”, “I don’t know how to play”, etc. ME EITHER!! And I suck! BUT it gives you bonding time that he will value and enjoy too. You are showing him you are taking interest in things he enjoys doing, maybe then you can compromise and he may be more willing to turn the console off and do something you enjoy! =]
WIN-WIN!
If you have a child who is addicted. Be a parent. Lay the law down. They will play when you allow and PLEASE don’t let them sit in front of the TV and play all day. Get them out and get them active! Maybe take them to a play paint ball or laser tag to get it out of their system.
Good luck!! ;]

My Dream ❤
Aside from my children living a happy, healthy and fulfilled life;; my biggest dream is that my daughter will be able to live a life as close to normal as possible ❤ I pray she will be able to walk, hold conversations, run and play with other kids. Unlike you, I may never get a chance to see her play on a jungle gym, ice skate, or score the winning soccer goal. I may never see her go on her first date, go to prom, or drive away as she's headed to her first year of college. Unlike you, I may never get to see her say "I Do", hold her first child, and be a mother herself;; but I pray every day she will be able to. Unlike you I have to worry what will happen with her once my time here is done. Who will care for her? Will she be mistreated? Who will help her? My dream is she is never pitied. My dream is she is never bullied. My dream is she is never called "retarded". My dream is people would show some respect and decency. My dream is no more "stares" or whispering as she passes by. My dream is she stops being and never will be left out again. My dream is she always remains strong and her determination never fades. People always ask me how I do it, mentally, emotionally and physically.. How do I get through each day? Truth is I don't. I have worries daily that most could never imagine dealing with. Unlike you I'm beyond broken daily. But I get through each day Bc of her and the strength she gives me. My daughter is my hero. && I couldn't be more proud of the amazing little girl she is, and everything she has taught me and will continue to teach me ❤

Are we too plugged-in?
CELL PHONES—
Well, where do I begin? In one little device we have the world in our hands. At the touch of a button we can plug into Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, as well as other social networking sites.
What meat is in a Subway Cold Cut sandwich?
What day is Easter this year?
How late is David’s Bridal open on a Saturday?
Why is my fiancé annoyingly on COD 24/7?
Ask Google-- Any question you have can be answered in a matter of seconds.
Everywhere I go people are plugged-in, in some way.
But are we TOO plugged-in? Are we TOO obsessed with mass media and what is going on that we are failing to live in the moment?
I look around and see students in class sitting on Facebook, texting and tuning the teacher out. I see people stopped 10 extra seconds after the light turn green at a stoplight because they were sitting on their phone, either texting or searching through their newsfeed. I see moms in the stores ignoring their wild children and letting them run around like crazy monkeys because they are too wrapped up in their phones.
Since when did what is on our phones become more important than the moment we are currently in? I’ll be honest with you. I am guilty myself of getting too wrapped up in my phone. Pretty sure I sit on it 24/7. Why? I don’t know. I didn’t grow up with a cell phone or social media at hand, and now that it is--I’ll say it. I’m ADDICTED! But this is where the habit stops.
They say it takes 3 weeks to form or kick a habit. Let day one start today. Hopefully I am able to kick it.
I find it so amazing how technology has evolved since the 90s, and I find the future of technology to be exciting. However, I hope as my children grow I am able to bring to life the joy of playing outside and keeping busy with things other than technology, you know the things I enjoyed as a child. I didn’t have the luxuries of sitting on Xbox or a cell phone all day. I had a bike; a playground and friends to play spend the day with.
Lets hope I’m able to avoid my children having a cell phone until they are at least in the 9th grade!
