"I'm so busy" is a comment lament I hear from friends, family, overheard conversations. Then, often in the very next breath, I hear these same people chat about the game they watched on TV, or what they saw in the mall. A guy I was listening to today, listed no less than 3 sports games on TV he had watched in the last 2 days. Really?? How can one say they are busy if they watch THAT much television?
We did away with cable about 4 years ago, and the set completely 3 years ago. Haven't missed it. Our days are so full, I can't imagine wasting a moment in front of "the idiot box." Granted, I do love the show "Grey's Anatomy" and watch it over the internet during the season. So, 1 hour per week from October to May, and not while we are away in Mexico (often for 2 months in the winter), but I certainly wouldn't ever complain I was too busy, especially if I spend any time at all with my eyes on a screen.
If a person is wondering how to get more hours out of his/her day, have a look at how much time is spent with the TV.
Just sayin'.
