It's strange what passes for newsworthy these days.
A month or two ago we got written up in the local paper for *gasp* not having any cable or broadcast TV in our house. The story got picked up in Boise and Salt Lake City, maybe elsewhere.
It's not the first time we've been in the paper for our odd way of life. We were interviewed a few years ago for our habit of cooking and eating dinner together at home on a regular basis. I'm not joking.
Apparently there's a market for this kind of thing. If we can get this much press for leading what feels to us like a normal life, maybe I should write a book...
Chapter 1: Start the day right: wake up and get dressed!
Chapter 2: Bathing, the forgotten principles.
Chapter 3: Reading for learning and pleasure.
Chapter 4: Tidying up the house.
etc.
etc.

Hi! I found your blog through the main blogger page. This post cracked me up. I have never lived in a place where stuff like is news, although people thought I was weird growing up because there were seven of us at dinner every night. It really blew their minds when I told them we rotated from our house to my grandparents' house, about a mile away. We ate there on days that started with T.
