I’m going to use my music hero Sturgill Simpson to get up on my phone soap box for a second.

“All too busy looking down at our phone

Our egos begging for food like a dog from our feed

Refreshing obsessively til our eyes start to bleed

Serve up distractions and we eat them with fries”

Study: Ignoring People for Phones Is the New Normal from The Atlantic.  Is there anyway we can stop this?  I know I have been guilty of hiding in my little phone world.  I am trying to build awareness of this habit.  Just in myself to start – asking your kid in 2016 to put down a mobile device can be like asking them to cut off their hand.  It’s great to have curiosity about the world, information pills but I know I have been guilty of avoiding the real world to sink into my own little scroll-a-thon.  There’s a whole world out there.  It’s better to experience it than to look for free wi-fi or click on another Buzzfeed list.

So we have done some heavy duty CrossFit this week.  Fran, more about Elizabeth, drugs gymnastics, short time domain (Fran), and longer time domains (DU/BJ/KB).  So what are we missing?  Going heavy of course!
