I always begin this at the beginning of the year in my store room and gradually through the year as I 'spring clean' it gives me a chance to not put everything back too. Keeps it manageable that way.I so love that so many Americans love Downton Abbey, in fact are there any that don't!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799594980600477320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-78470764184254115682013-02-08T05:48:01.691-07:002013-02-08T05:48:01.691-07:00Interesting to read your thoughts on getting rid o...Interesting to read your thoughts on getting rid of cable tv - I like the way it wasn't just about saving money but also about decluttering your mind/life. We are reducing our cable package for similar reasons. Most of the things we watch on tv are DVD box sets or I watch things online through bbc iPlayer. Think of all the extra free time we'll have!<br /><br />Gillian xGillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-512630160078306352013-02-06T14:52:34.146-07:002013-02-06T14:52:34.146-07:00Congrats on winning what sounds like a most intere...Congrats on winning what sounds like a most interesting idea. <br />Decluttering is always a good project for spring when the light starts streaming in and showing up all the mess we've accumulated over the winter months.<br />I could live without tv but not without my computer/iPad.<br />Have you tried Apple tv - it's great - you can rent a wide range of movies including new releases, art house and foreign, and also watch podcasts etc.Mairéadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12102610500647326693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-79227073227968469212013-02-06T11:41:45.284-07:002013-02-06T11:41:45.284-07:00Thank you for your visit, Jenny.

You obviously love "To Kill a Mockingbird" and you also like two of my favorite programs..."Downton Abbey" and "The Middle," which makes Wednesday evenings good ones around here. Now I have to look into "Modern Family." This book sounds like a good one and one that nearly anyone could put to good use. All the best with clearing your home of anything that just muddies the water. I'll be working on that for the rest of my life.

I am glad you left a comment by my place so that I could find you!<br /><br />The book looks fantastic, I am in the same place you are with the decluttering and simplifying, simplifying!! <br /><br />I am so in awe that you got rid of the cable! Our bill just went up and the only one who uses it is my father who sometimes comes to babysit, that and the kids. If it was just me I would do it in a heartbeat. A friend of mine just got a $40 antenna and now gets the local channels and 4 PBS stations with NO MONTHLY bill. I am so jealous. I hope to add this to my list in the next year or two.<br /><br />underthebigblueskyhttp://livingunderthebigbluesky.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-19060005627742788412013-02-06T09:27:12.953-07:002013-02-06T09:27:12.953-07:00Congrats on your win... maybe it's the start o...Congrats on your win... maybe it's the start of a new trend for you!! I had to check out the tiny house... oh my, it's tiny - but cute! I'm not decluttering as fast as my husband would like, but I'm making some headway. We reduced our channels a short while ago and am thinking of getting rid of more. It is ridiculous that when you spend $100/month on cable that there is rarely anything worth watching. Except Downton, of course. :)TracyMB @ Crows Feet Chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12423318209101053785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-83977403695442737402013-02-06T09:09:53.341-07:002013-02-06T09:09:53.341-07:00Congrats on the win (book looks interesting) and t...Congrats on the win (book looks interesting) and the decluttering, both should make you feel great!

I'm doing the same here. We started last summer and it's been a gradual process but we're getting there :)<br /><br />I have to agree with you on the amount of useless channels around. We don't have as many channels here in the UK as over there but seriously, the rubbish that is broadcast is just mind boggling.<br /><br />We don't even own a TV but have a cable box hooked up through our PC. It's just the basic free to air channels available here in the UK and we have LoveFilm for streaming. It's more than enough for us.moleymakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01498423514067552240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-75872268959427373732013-02-06T02:37:28.958-07:002013-02-06T02:37:28.958-07:00Lucky you!

We have not had cable for over eight years now and I don't miss it one bit. We do have Netflix, which we watch through our Wii, but otherwise it's just whatever channels we can get with our antenna. My kids have never seen Nickelodeon or Disney Channel or any of that stuff and I'm pretty happy about that.
