I'm doing it: National Day of Unplugging

I made the commitment for The National Day of Unplugging. Tonight no phone, TV, internet for 24 hours. I will start after I clock out of work because I don't know when sundown is (nor do I want to have to keep looking at the clock to find out etc), so  at 8 pm I'll turn my phone off. I am still debating whether or not listening to Pandora radio or  reading a book on KindleFire counts.  I am going to do my best w/o both.

  • I will miss talking to my husband while I am at work tomorrow. And I always call while taking the dogs out in the morning.
  • I wrote down the recipe for dinner tonight so I don't have to go online to look at it.
  • I have to find my watch so I don't need my phone as a watch at work.
  • I am super sad that I have to spend my day of unplugging at work.  What a waste of peace and calmness ha ha.
  • I hope I know others who do this so I'll someone to share experiences with.
  • While I have no desire of going off the grid forever, I hope this makes me more aware of how I spend my time etc. and hopefully the start of good habits.
  • My husband's response when I told him today: "Does this mean I have to do it too?"  ha ha.  I love him.  (answer: "No, but I want be watching TV tonight.")

  1. Wow, good for you! Can't wait to hear how it goes. Since we don't have cable, the tv thing would be easy, but the computer and phones...hmmmm, that's another story! ;)
