Good luck with it all! I lived on my own without a TV for a year. People thought I was mad but I really didn’t miss it. I prefer DVDs (both movies and boxsets) to most TV programmes anyway. Have you got a radio? If I’m in need of background noise I usually find it a good bet! Plus you can do other things (cleaning, cooking, sewing, painting your toenails) at the same time…

I totally agree about only reading blogs once or twice I week. I find that if you read them all at once it’s actually a lot quicker. In the new year I’m actually going to identify about 20 which I want to read and unsubscribe from the rest. There’s so much inspiration online – but I should switch off and then I would have time to make my own inspiration!

And I want to turn off my laptop earlier as it keeps you awake!

I think the getting showered/dressed thing would be something I would really benefit from – I’m going to try that.

touche. what with the iphone mallarky and blog reading and facebook. sometimes I get eye ache and wonder what happened to my day. and yet – here I am again. I think I need to write a list of what I want to achieve before I wander aimlessly on and get immersed. screen time is screen time is screen time….
