As I mentioned a few posts ago (found here), Kyle and I are going to try to go minimal electricity once a week.
So here it is! Next week we will be starting our Minimalist Monday Movement. Each Monday we unplug and unwind to be in the present. I won’t say there will be absolutely no electricity use, but I’m hoping to use this to wean myself away from so much phone use.
We decided on Minimalist Monday because Kyle and his dad have a tradition of watching the Seahawks (Amazon) play together during football season. Which means my first ideas of Simple Sunday and Solar Saturday were out. Monday was the only other day I could come up with a cool name for, because this plan needs a name, ya know?
Mondays will be reserved for nature walks, cooking, cleaning, homestead chores and family bonding. I would throw reading on that list, but I gave up most of my 400+ library when we moved out here. I’m slowly picking up books here and there, and my mom has sent a few in the mail (thanks Mom!), but mostly I use my Kindle app (Amazon link)
