We're Breaking Up With You

It's time to say so long. You had a good run in our lives, tv - 33 years. But we're moving on without you. You've been in storage for a full year this coming Monday so in honor of that anniversary we decided it's finally time to kick you to the curb. Don't take it personally.

Well, maybe you should take it personally. You've brought some pretty nasty people into our home. And some nasty talk and some nasty images that stayed floating around in our minds. You kept us from serving others when we could have and you've kept us from candelight dinners. You've kept us from reading together and praying together. You've kept us from hikes and visiting nursing homes and knitting hats for preemies and from learning to play guitar. You've kept us from each other and from our kids.
Goodbye, tv.

AHH! So funny, so sad, and so TRUE! Our's is in an upper room, and neither Jeff or I have watched it in a year. Gwen still get's the occational pbs show, but... it definately can add up to more of a con than a pro!
