8 quotes on the importance of unplugging #quotes

When was the last time you unplugged? 

Last night, MR N and I sat down on our love seat with our feet up, put in a romantic CD and held hands as we listened. We didn't check email or watch tv, we just unplugged. It was a great experience and one I highly recommend.
