This is a little off-to..."... no tv ..."<br /><br />This is a little off-topic, but I gave away all my televisions and radios back in 2005, and I've never missed them once.<br /><br />The free time has let me reconnect with books (Is anybody today old enough to remember books?)<br /><br />I love books, especially classics by great philosophers and scientists and thinkers -- Descartes, Darwin, Thoreau, Gandhi. In comparison to those writers, today's fads like Twitter, Facebook, and other social media are just junk food for the mind.jimpurdy1943@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12974301744118775363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-893483190749067770.post-27238426534066563562012-02-03T14:02:03.657-07:002012-02-03T14:02:03.657-07:00I am so happy to hear about you and Brian actually...I am so happy to hear about you and Brian actually sitting down at a table to ea. It always made me feel better if there was someone to eat with 'cause then you tend to talk, and as long as there is no arguing or disagreements your digestion works better too. So glad you are confronting some of those demons about saving stuff. Not that I am much better but sometimes you have to just "not look" and shred it or trash it or Goodwill it. I must admit though it isn't new to you since you saved rocks at one time that weren't even pretty! I love you and admire you so muchMomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-893483190749067770.post-62207943701756544052012-02-02T07:19:59.936-07:002012-02-02T07:19:59.936-07:00I don't know what it is, but I suffer from it ...I don't know what it is, but I suffer from it as well. Saved a couple of empty coconut flour cans for almost a month around Xmas cause I kept thinking I would need or could "use" them...and this all while my pantry was already so full of jars and cans that stuff was almost falling out of it. Somehow I think it's connected to the emotional eating issues I have. Turning loose of anything ( even my coat of fat ) is difficult. Hopefully, I'm getting past it. I am finally realizing that tremendous freedom comes ( funny, huh ) with the cathartic gesture of throwing something away...once you can make yourself do it !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
