30x30

Today was Tech Free day in the 30x30 house.

The boy and I we with no TV, no computer, and no phone.

And well, the truth of it is, I cheated a little bit.

You see, the light in the American Apparel dressing room was way to cool to not snap off one picture.

So I did...and then my 3 year old yelled at me to "put my phone away."

Honestly, the entire day (which felt like the longest day of my life) was WAY harder than I expected.

I didn't miss our TV being on at all. 

I loved that we listened to records all day, because we couldn't turn the computer on.

I felt like a crack head trying to kick a habit with my phone,

and we completely lost track of all time and spent 3 hours at the park.

Would I do it again.  Sure.

Anytime soon? Probably not.

But, it was a great big eye opener to how much I/We depend on social media.

Lesson learned.

Sharing happiness...now there is a novel idea.  

We are currently neck deep in political propaganda and slander.  You can't turn on the television, radio, or internet without being slapped in the face with someones negative opinions about someone elses opinions.  Personally I can't wait for it all to be over.  

But to help me get through I am going to focus on spreading my light.  I have plenty of joy to give, so if anyone needs some, just reach out!  To let you all in on a little secret, the more your share your happiness, the more you receive! Happy thankful thursday everyone! Go spread the love!
