A friend once told her children a story about an unwanted family house guest who was often rude, crude, mean, made poor decisions that their family wouldn’t approve of but for some reason never asks to leave. That unwanted house guest was the television.
I tell this story because just recently Vasili and I made the decision to cancel our cable and push ourselves to go out to enjoy real life more. It’s been exactly one week and, though hard at times, I couldn’t be happier. We’ve been cooking together and going on walks with the dogs through the park more often, spending more time with friends and *gasp* being more productive at home.
I dare you to try it, even if just for a month – at the very least, you’ll save yourselves a cable bill 🙂
