Fasting T.V.

Thinking of you Michelle:

Just an idea. We did this last year, kind of on accident. It paid off. Our cable went out and took awhile for them to fix it. We decided that nothing that great was on anyway so we just decided to not watch for a week. Along the same line as the cleanse. We chose to do other things. We played cards, painted toenails, made crafts, baked, read ect..Laughed a bunch. It was harder for the kids than us but they would rather have are attention anyway. We created a lot of time we did not think we had and our house in return became peaceful. I am not a big T.V. fan anyway but I've noticed this experience made me picky about what I watch because I realized how valuable my time and what I put in my mind is. Another great idea is to really think of a good family movie you have been wanting to watch together as a family. It would give you the whole week to think about and look forward too.

Enjoy the moment.

That is such an awesome idea Leslie, it really is more my husband than I and Avery loves cartoons of course! I think so much it is just on for background noise which is ridiculous I'm not sure why we couldn't just have music playing inspiring music.

Another thing you could do is get rid of cable and as a family you could think about what you might do with the $650 you spend each year on cable. And that's just for Basic!

I just had one more thought, I got out my calculator...$650 is more than four 20 class passes or more than 80 yoga classes. Which serves us more? :)
