You've inspired me, I'm going to try and get a day a week back to peace, quiet and radio silence!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13320930325249337062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9070856513284700064.post-82011085946961758422011-01-25T07:10:34.270-08:002011-01-25T07:10:34.270-08:00Spadger?

Candle-light is be...Spadger? You must divulge....<br /><br />Candle-light is beautiful and this sounds like a lovely idea, even for people who are not doing it for similar reasons to youselves. We spend too much time with technology and not enough time with our significant other.<br /><br />I'm a big culprit of having the TV always on (I like the noise of company during the day) and immersing myself online as a distraction to the nausea, BUT when baby Davy makes an appearance, I fully intend to spend much less time with these distractions.<br /><br />There will be a home-cooked meal every evening, I'll finally put into practise my desire to learn to bake and will spend time taking him out in his pram every day. We'll have lots of fun feeding ducks and learning about flowers and trees when he's older.<br /><br />When you've someone else to think about, its important to make sure, they have a full life and don't just sit vegetating in front of the TV.<br /><br />Major kudos to the both of you for your choice of lifestyle. A lot of people could learn a lot even by adapting small parts and incorporating them into their lives.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701116892455587711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9070856513284700064.post-15865123800350031232011-01-25T06:52:27.690-08:002011-01-25T06:52:27.690-08:00That's a really good idea - I'm tempted to...That's a really good idea - I'm tempted to copy :)<br /><br />We nearly had <a href="http://www.thereallygoodlife.com/1678/power-out/" rel="nofollow">an evening involuntarily without power a couple of weeks ago</a> - I think we'd have been fine for most things except for lighting, and that had a knock-on effect for entertainment. Like with you guys, my chap would happily have made music all evening but I don't know if it would have been light enough for me to read or craft by.<br /><br />I like the idea of doing it regularly - and voluntarily - though. It's the type of thing we'd do on holiday to jolt ourselves out of our normal routines - might as well do that jolting at home too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
