Goodbye Old Friend!

After 10 years of faithful service, our one and only T.V. bit the dust last Friday. It just shut itself off right in the middle of Wow Wow Wubbzy. After giving so much, it just couldn't give anymore. The really awful part was it decided to die right before I went on an overnight trip leaving Dale and the kids with out their precious shows. We don't really have the $$$ for another one so I thought maybe it's a blessing in disguise. We will spend more time together! Yeah, that worked for about a day. Luckily our nice neighbor heard of our plight and loaned us their extra T.V. It's great, we can watch all our shows now, we just need binoculars to see them.
And forget about reading the words on the guide or the show info. And sadly, no place to hook up the DVD player. But it works and the kids don't seem to mind. So I'm not complaining. Okay, maybe I am. Just a little. Our old TV was a dinosaur but at least you could see what you were watching without squinting.

That tv is tiny!! You know we haven't had tv for 5 months and it really is great! Most shows I really want to watch are online and I get so much more done. Bummer yours broke!
