Productivity and LIFE

So yesterday marked 60 days of no TV.......
With the exception of Super Bowl and the worst day ever when Jon and I BOTH got sick and gave in and watched some TV it's been TV free.

I've been super productive with all that extra time that I don't put towards TV

-I've read 2 complete books
-I'm about halfway through 4 other books
-I've been able to do some spring cleaning and organize the apartment
-I've been crocheting a lot and have finished a lot of fun projects-including this beauty (Kindle cover)




Jon and I have had lots more time to just BE together too..........
-We've been reading the Harry Potter books out loud together and we're halfway through the 3rd one
-We've been playing 2 person card games-which is super fun and super frustrating sometimes since we're both so competitive
-We even took a nice long walk last night around our neighborhood (after I had to get 5 layers of clothing on since it's been so cold at night)

Other than all the productive things I've been able to do I've also found that I have more time to just BE and enjoy LIFE!! I'm not as stressed and overwhelmed all the time. I'm able to just take LIFE in.

I even took a 2 hour nap on Tuesday after a very tasty meal with my mom and Nono (grandma) at Red Lobster... 2 HOURS!!!


God really has been revealing a lot about my heart during this process as well. Realizing how much I've been trying to escape my feelings and escape him. I want to be PRESENT with him. Not escape him.


I really do feel like I'm slowly learning how to just BE..... and that feels fan-freaking-tastic
