One of the (not surprising) benefits of no longer having the deluxe cable package  is that  we’re reading more. We still have some cable, but getting in the habit of not having the TV on means that we don’t turn it on when we’re bored or for background noise.
Instead, we play music and pick up a book. I’ve read two complete books in the last week and have started on another.
I’m enjoying the having the TV off. Somehow, it makes the day seem slower paced, more relaxing, when I pick up a book instead of flipping through channels.
