how did you feel when you sat down to watch TV?).I was just in the mood to lay around.
o Hours spent consuming: TV, internet, radio, magazines, books, movie (at theatre), etc. I watched a little more than normal due to the circumstances. About five hours.
o Shows you watched throughout the day.I eneded up doing a LMN lifetime movie marathon. I did swithc over to MTV for a little.

Day Three
o Characterize your day~ I started off my breakfast with a cup of coffee and then I turned the tv on to see the weather and any news update. I watched channel 13 news because it shows continous news.
how does it compare to a “typical day”? -Summer vacation is still here so I have to find ways to keep the kids busy.
Did anything out of the ordinary happen?- Not really out of the ordinary for summer. Once school starts and the kids are in school things change a bit.
how did you feel when you sat down to watch TV?).-I watched a little news and headed to the community pool for a few hours.
o Hours spent consuming: TV, internet, radio, magazines, books, movie (at theatre), etc.- I always check facebook and check my e-mails. I probabaly spent about one hour because I have the ability to check both off my phone throughout the day.
o Shows you watched throughout the day- It was hot out side and the boys decided to play video games after a while and I laid down to watch some of the food network. I fell asleep watching it.
In the evening I watched Cake Boss. I love seeing the orders that people place for the cake boss. I dozed off at night watching that show and a little of New Jersey Housewives.
o Why you watched each show (what do you like about each show?). I watched the food network because I wasn't in the mood to get into a show. I just wanted to rest.
o Whether you watched each show live or recorded each show- I watched the show live.
o Who you watched each show with- I watched the news and night shows on my own.
o How you came about watching each show (i.e. you planned to watch it and regularly watch it, your significant other made you watch it, you stumbled upon it on the TV guide, you went to a particular network and stumbled upon it, etc.).- Today I just watched what I knew would not involve to much attention. I could drift to sleep watching the ffod network and I knew the cake boss would be okay to miss a part of the show. If I am tired then I know that I wont be able to fall asleep if I put my show on an interesting channel. Today was one of those days in which I just needed some rest. My one year old just drove my crazy!!! Phew!!

Day 2
My day always starts off with getting ready for church. After church we have lunch at our regular sub place and head home for relaxtion. The kids always join me for some family time.
how does it compare to a “typical day”? It is a little more relaxing at home and more time is spent with the kids in the day.

o Shows you watched throughout the day.-In the day the kids and I watched Disney channel- Hannah Montana, I Carly, and Zack and Cody. In between those shows I watched the Bravo station to see some adult TV.
o Why you watched each show- All the Disney channel show are entertaining even for adults. I like to spend time with my kids as well. Bravo has some crazy shows like New Jersey Housewives and there is some drama going on with the girls that has been a little crazy. I guess I just want to see what happens with the feuding housewives.
o Whether you watched each show live or recorded each show-I watched the shows live.
o Who you watched each show with- All four boys watched the show with me on the disney channel and I was alone for a while and turned to the bravo channel.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened. I had to clean and fold clothes and while I folded clothes I put on Lifetime Movie Network.
How did you feel when you sat down to watch TV?) I never actually sat down because I worked and watched. What I love about the Lifetime channel is that if I miss parts of the movie then I know that they will show the movie again aat a later date.
o Hours spent consuming: TV, internet, radio, magazines, books, movie (at theatre), etc. I spent about five hours on media today. I read my e-mails on the internet and checked facebook for about thirty minutes.I went to the movie theatre amd watched The Other Guys.

o Why you watched each show (what do you like about each show?).The food network gives me great ideas on meals that I can try for my family of six. I am a visual person so I tend to learn by watching the show and seeing the ingredients. Reading from a cookbook can be boring so I enjoy seeing the cooking live.
I watched Lifetime Movie Network while I cleaned and folded clothes.
