We have a TV, but no cable. There is a small indoor antenna that picks up a few local stations and that works for us. In the past three years of no cable, I've found that the house is calmer. Don't misunderstand - we have DVDs and occasionally watch free shows on the Internet, but our life doesn't revolve around the TV. We did turn on the TV for about 30 minutes to watch the ball drop to welcome 2015, but that won't be remembered years down the road.
The memories were made earlier in the evening as we played games to pass the time. First it was Hedbanz (a guessing game that caused contagious giggles), then Candyland, War, and a crazy made-up game called TicTacTalmo. By 11 p.m. we were wallowing on the floor trying to stay awake for just one more hour. Even that gave us the giggles.
Psalm 126:2-3 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, "The Lord has done great things for them." The Lord has done great things for us, and we are glad.
Yes, the Lord has done great things for us, and we are glad. Happy 2015!
