My mind is swimming in confusion and my eyes are ready to pop out. It is internet overload. I just got done with a team challenge which requires all day devotion to Swagbucks. Today, nothing seems to work. My eyeballs are spinning and my brain has shut down. I think I need a vacation.
Do you ever get to the point where going online is just too much? What do you do when that happens?

Sometimes I need to get away from the computer for a while. I do some chores in the house or go for a walk. When I come back to the computer I have new energy and I am ready to be active again.

@akalinus It is good to take a break and do other things for a while. I have a pile of books on the table next to the computer and I sometimes I also read while I take a break from the computer.

@Porcospino I read until I fall asleep every night. There are so many books and the time is so short.

I am like that with most everything these days. The amount of info one has to acquire these days to do about anything is staggering. Usually when that happens I just turn off the computer and go back to bed.

@akalinus I am not sure, but probably is a reason why everyone is so forgetful these days, speaking of which where did I put my keys.?

@crossbones27 Funny you should ask. I went to the shower room and on the way back, I lost my bottle of shampoo. I had to get a flashlight and find it. A guy walking his dog thought I was crazy. Maybe so.

@Jessabuma All that surfing is for nothing, just a dream.

@akalinus as of the moment, yes but I only do them during my free time :)
But I really need to go for a walk or something.

When that happens, I watch a movie, go to the park and watch the activities there, or do my best to bring my focus on just one project, not several at once. I've never participated in the team challenges on SB. Is it fun? I don't think I could devote a whole day to it though.

That is me all the time. I am working on the internet so much that I just get exhausted and my eyes are just so done. I take breaks but it is still a lot.

It wouldn't be worth it to me to devote a whole day to swagbucks.

@akalinus Fifty cents isn't worth it to me unless it's here.
I do usually 75 cents here a day or so. Swagbucks is too much work for not enough payout.

@thislittlepennyearns So far, I only get pennies here. I am experimenting with ways to make more.
