I watch terrible TV shows. The commercials drive me crazy and yet I do nothing about it. It is my white noise. I went on turnoffyourtv.com and checked out their TV Turn Off Week. It is just a way to rethink the role of television, why we use it, and how and what for. I know I would be happier doing more rewarding activities with my time. They give a list of 50 alternative activities- these are ones from the list that I would do:
- do a puzzle
- attend a concert
- visit the library
- listen to the radio
- cook
- plant a flower, vegetable, herb garden
- read magazines, books
- go through closets, donate
- go to the museum
- exercise
- make crafts
- go to the movies
- learn something new (I added this one)
