What a great day it was, though. Starting with an outdoor church service, then a few hours of letterboxing followed by a little relaxing & reading, dinner on the patio, cutting the grass and then a game of Rummikub with Maria & the girls.
Ironically, the day started with some surprise clouds rolling in which prompted a check of the weather radar on TV to see if we were going to be rained out at church, and letterboxing clues are all listed on line, so we had to get on to find those. But we limited out 'plugged in' activities to those two things, which were only to make our unplugged day a success.
The hint that this was overdue came as the day rolled on and I felt increasingly compelled to check-in online with my email and blogs. Yeah, I'm too plugged in.
A very good day, and, I should point out, it was almost entirely my wife's idea.
Should have done this sooner.
I would be willing ... but it couldn't be on a Sunday when the Cowboys play. My wife and her mom would just sit across the room from me, staring icily.
Sounds like a fun day!
I love Rummikub, we sing while playing. Now i have to call my friends to get together.
Keith - so pick another day ...
Milly - Singing Rummikub, that would be ... interesting. :-P
it's a blast! If I ever make it up your way we'll play.
We did that kind of Sunday. We weren't unplugged but we pulled out UNO and played three games with the girls instead of watching TV. We go them going by reminding them they played with your girls. Now they want to do it every Sunday evening.
I was definitely not unplugged on Saturday. Watched probably 12 hours of football. Was cold and rainy here so couldn't do much else.
