Yesterday's Irony

Yesterday I was running errands and I remembered to pray for my friend Amy who wants to stop watching TV at night. I asked God give her the self-discipline not to turn the TV on and to bless her with some special family time.

The irony: Last night I wasted three hours watching TV. Kevin had a meeting at church and then had to deal with a broken-down car (another story), so I turned on the TV for company. Three hours later, I had TiVoed my way through two episodes of American Idol, an episode of Dinner for Five, and some other show that I can't even remember right now. Entertaining, yes, but a complete waste of time.

My name is Chelsea, and I'm a TVaholic.

Chelsea, you are so sweet to have prayed for me. It really was helpful. I had a great week and got lots of sleep. Two nights ago, however, I did the same thing as you. I told Paul to remind me that there is nothing worth watching on TV after 10pm! I hope you have more TV Free time this week.
