TV Time Out...

I've said it before, but I watch too much TV. The worst part is, I don't really even enjoy it! I just kind of do it because it's there, but really I'd rather be doing other things.

So, I'm going to cut back significantly on my TV watching in exchange for some more rewarding activities- like art journaling, scrapbooking, reading, Bible study, and various other projects.

This is a great time to try to do this because a lot of the shows I watch regularly are done for the season. The only one left with a season finale is Southland, which ends this week. Then the only shows I'll plan to watch, because I actually enjoy them, are Dress My Nest and Say Yes to the Dress- both of which I DVR, so they end up taking less time to watch!

Hopefully when shows (ie: House and The Office... and DEXTER) start back up again, I can continue to just watch the ones I actually enjoy, rather than channel surfing just to pass time.

The hardest part will be not sitting down when the Hubs is watching, which is most of the time when he's home. I've got so many things I want to be doing, I just need to stay determined to focus on those things rather than zoning out in front of the tube.

Of course, I'm not going to punish myself if I end up lounging in front of the TV one night a week because I've been working hard and creating and so forth. But mostly, I am looking forward to getting projects done, which I will likely share here!

Blessings and Happy Tuesday!
