It's Good News

Six years ago when I lost my Lee, I wanted the house quiet. My husband loved everything about TV and we had one in every room and they were on most of the time.

Lee watched it all and could easily enjoy, at the same time, sports, news, a movie, and was amazingly quick never allowing a commercial to appear.

Try watching TV together. Whenever I watched, just to be with him, I always had my phone or iPad. He was the absolute master of the remote control. Lee did not like being without his big screen...I named our generator a giant backup TV switch.

 

There was no problem with my ability to sleep, work, read make calls all with the constant sound of the televisions. And they were not on low volume.  Even secured a second remote in our bedroom so when he dozed off, I could secretly reduce the sound. Sneaky!

And I removed every TV from the house and only brought one television back. And that was when I did a complete remodel of my home. That is for movies, YOUtube, and visitors..

The former big-screen area now is home to a few of my custom ceramic pieces.

** I get my news from my phone or computer. Highlights are more than enough for me. My favorite app is named “Good News”

Good News

Take a look I find the most inspiring up to date positive reporting. Always a heartwarming story.

I miss my Lee but I am enjoying the quiet around me.

It’s all Good News.

Good morning!

When my husband was out of the house recently, I never bothered to turn the TV on. I totally get what you're saying and am glad you have renovated your home to suit your style. I'm going to download that Good News app today- I never heard of it. Thank you.

Good morning Margaret. Must say TV has lost its luster. Everyone has a political point of view that detracts from the reason they are there! Enjoy your day!

Hello Margaret - in any relationship there are things we not only accept but compromise and even embrace.  It's a part of the entire picture.

Hi Margaret,

A dark time in your life for sure when Lee was lost to you.  However, as they say "life goes on" and you have done that in spades!  He will forever be in your memory as you think of him often.  With that said, he never really goes away.
