Family Unplugged Sundays

We've decided that Sundays we are going off the grid. Ok, not quite off the grid, we'll still use lights, the dishwasher, the oven, etc, but we won't be on the computer or the TV. We'll play games, go to the park, take a bike ride, read a book, have people over and try to do things together as a family.

We're a family of loners, frankly, and Maria and I don't think that's good. Left to our own, I think we'd eventually all find our own corner of the house, with a TV or computer, and sink into our own little world. After the kids go to bed, Maria and I pretty much do just that, she to her office and me in the recliner, each on our laptops. (I decided that I can use the chair in her office, so we're at least in the same room)

Unplugged Sundays is one small step against that trend. So, if you email me on Sunday, don't expect and answer until Monday. I'll be unplugged.
