13. Unplugged! (1/33)

Well...don't you get so much stuff done when you're not distracted by the TV and the computer?!

I watched "The Tudors" on Friday night (phwoor @ gorgeous men in doublet and hose...shame about the lack of historical accuracy but who cares?!) and then went to bed. Woke up yesterday morning and stopped myself putting the radio on. My unplugged day had begun.

I managed to :

Clean the wooden floors
Do all the washing
Go to the library - four more books to read
Go shopping - I did speak to a couple of people here, well you can't seem *too* rude, can you? :)
Cook dinner
Read one of the library books - "So Me" Graham Norton's autobiography which was really good. Laugh out loud funny in a lot of places.

I held out until 7pm then I plugged back into the world again. So, 21 out of 24 hours isn't bad for a first time and I'm counting it as a success. It's my list, so I can :)

  2. Thank you for looking :)

    It wasn't easy - but I think I'm too "wired into" the internet/TV etc.

    When I actually relaxed and sat and read a book (with no background noise) it was really rather good.

    I'm much less worried now about the fact I've committed to do this once a month :)
