I love that quote! I know I have a problem, have to skip my book club meeting next week because I haven't started the book, my kids and I race to the desktop to see who gets there first, my youngest tells me I have "a problem", Joey only knows life each evening on my lap under a keyboard, and I'm late for work in the morning because I have to read "just one more post." I'm not kidding. I guess I've taken the first step, admitted my life is out of control, blah blah blah. Even at work, I take a quick peek.

I'm guilty of being addicted! Since the sun comes into the back of the house during mid to late afternoon, I can't be on the computer much as the babies like to sleep in the sun. So for the sake of my babies I try to stay off in the afternoons for their sunbathing pleasure. lol.

I'm lucky that my husband travels alot, so obviously I'm always on YT!
When he's out-of-town and calls at night, he can hear the keyboard clacking, and he says "honey, can you stop YT for 10 minutes and try to focus on our conversation...?" LOL!!!

Perhaps we should start a new group called...

"Yorkie Talk Addicts Who Don't Want To Control Themselves"

I'll join in a heartbeat!!!!

Well, I love spending time with my Pottsy, but I recently got a friend for him.. actually , siberia was supposed to be a friend for my roommate, but pottsy and her are best friends now so he's always playing with her and has no interest in me anymore... what have I done???? lol.. I will put him on my lap and he just jumps down to play with her. She is a little pek a pom. adorable as ever but i'm a little jealous.. He used to fall asleep on my shoulders every night now he sleep s with her..

If I tell him something about Yorkies, he'll say "Whose mom said that"?! He leaves for work about 7a. I'll talk to you then.

Ok, it's 3:24 am!!

My husband is right. There is a problem.

Lucia · 03-24-2009, 11:54 PM

I'm an addict too

I'm always saying to myself; 'right, just another ten minutes of yorkie talk, and then I'll get on with some work.' An hour later..........

What a good idea!! I'm not sure if I'm addicted or not because I can stop whenever I want to...I just don't want to.

makennasmommy · 03-25-2009, 03:54 AM

between my yorkie board and my parenting board (for my skin daughter), I am on way too much. Hubby says on your boards again....what are you doing...how do you read and read the same stuff. I try to explain but theres no point....he just doesnt get it! And yes we fight over the laptop in the evenings..lol--we really need another..maybe a nice Christmas present idea..if we can wait that long

Princes mom · 03-25-2009, 02:53 PM

bump!

lolas_mom · 03-25-2009, 03:30 PM

I literally just got the "Would you get off that stupid computer?" face from my husband. LOL I was in the middle of a post! I can't just stop!! So now I get the deep sighs and "I wished you loved me like you love that site" statements.

They had a story on our local news yesterday in which some people desribed the same behavior when it came to FAcebook.

WHEN I was working, I was on here all day. Folks would come into my office and tease me about Yorkie talk, but you guys helped to keep some sanity in my life in and insane office world.

Ivy Lucille · 03-26-2009, 03:44 AM

I love my YT and friends! I try not to let it interfere with family time (oh who am I kidding here...) but it does make me late and in a rush a lot! But I knew I had a problem the other day when I saw a vertical turd on the floor and the first thing I thought of was "grab the camera I am sooooo posting this on YT"

(which I did post by the way

) <sigh>
