the (tv) cord has been cut!

OK, so I didn't cut the cord, but I did call yesterday and cancelled our Direct TV service....that means we are down to the basic local channels that the UHF antenea picks up....i think we can survive! I think it will be nice to go through summer without trying to schedule around TV shows! We will see how it goes!!! I have a feeling Matthew and I may be the hardest to convince this is a good thing....but it feels good to me!!!

YEA! Here Here! We are doing that too! We have our basic- 20 channels of cable and it is mainly the PBS channel that is on. So it's always been good things they are watching but, I have noticed that any TV watching really affects my 4 year old- more like acting up and not obeying rules. So I have also unplugged the TV- so no TV at all. We as a family will have the privilege to watch a Friday night movie together- that will be our reward. I've done this before- but never more than three weeks. We'll see how it goes for the whole summer- or even make it a permanent thing. It can be very tempting when the kids are needing something to do- and you've run out of ideas. Just stay strong.
