February Challenge-Just Say No To Netflix

This is one of the places I sit to do my morning pages and as of Feb. 1st, it is so on!! I really fell off last year when it comes to my morning pages and as a result, my blogging fell off because if I don't "prime the pump" as Ms. Cameron says, my mind is too full of sludge and it is hard to get to the good stuff when it comes to writing. I gave up watching the idiot box a few months ago and this time I hope it is for good. When we stopped watching tv, we replaced it with streaming movies through netflix. Well, all of our time was being eaten up by watching movies and series so, our studies suffered. So, for the next month, we have given up netflix. The home entertainment system is shutdown and oh what a difference the last three days have been. We are finding that there actually are enough hours in the day to do the things that we want to do, we just needed to get rid of all of the distractions. I am reading like crazy, our studies are going well, guitar and spanish and we hope to get back to our art now that we have time. I am also limiting the time spent on sites like facebook and tumblr because they also consume large amounts of time. I have stacks of books to get to and hey who knows, I might even get back to sewing.
