No TV


Also known as the post where you figure out I have completely lost my mind.

Things have been crazy around here lately. CRAZY! After 3 weeks of being sick I am playing a serious game of catch up. Add to the mix that school is back in full swing, the Holidays are RIGHT around the corner, and I have a hundred projects in the works and you don't really have any time to watch TV. Now that doesn't stop me from staying up until 11:30 at night watching crazy marathons on TLC. And not even of shows I like!! But of random shows that just happen to be on and capture my interest.

Not to mention that after school when I AM being productive that the kids are sitting on the couch for way too long watching Cartoon Network. Let me just tell you that I don't know how to handle a boy that is too old to watch the Disney Channel. I have tried telling him that if he doesn't like the Disney Channel then he must not love Disneyland and he can't go! Didn't work. He saw right through that.

Anyway, the moral of this story is that as of yesterday we are a no TV family. At least for September. Well, at least for this week. We are taking it one day at a time. We do have a few cheats. They can watch a certain amount of TV type stuff on the computer and there are still movie days. But no sitting on their tushies watching TV. That goes for the big people in the house too.

I honestly NEVER watch TV during the day. But of course today I have wanted to watch TV like no ones business. Isn't that the way it goes?
