When we got up on Monday morning it was only 13 degrees (F)! I’d heard it was supposed to be cold, and since we had to get up and get out early, I had gotten out my heavy winter coat and gloves.
Hubby had medical tests to get to the hospital for, and I went along for moral support! I did not eat breakfast, as Hubby couldn’t eat before his breakfast. So needless to say, once he was done, we both hit the hospital cafeteria and had breakfast.
Today I was sort of a “Chatty Cathy” as our cable company has decided to go digital and this means that unless you have a digital TV or one of their decoder boxes you will not be able to receive a signal. Well the change started today!
Now we all know we can live without TV, but you know what? I’m really angry about this. At night, when I go to bed I like to turn on the TV for Fritz and me. We like to listen to it while we relax and slowly slip off to sleep.
Whatever happened to “FREE TV”? Not so free any more is it? Almost everyone has cable of some sort and if you have those big heavy dinosaur TV’s (like I do in some of my rooms) they are totally outmoded and useless.
All I can say about that is Thank You to Washington for once again changing our laws so it screws the little people!
Tuesday I think I will do some of the chopping for the Turkey stuffing. Wednesday I will be cooking our apple pie and actually making the turkey gravy and stuffing, so if I can get some chopping done today that will be good.
We’ve been told by the weather people to expect snow, rain and sleet and generally lousy weather the next few days. I sure hope they are wrong!
Oh well, enough complaining! Have a good day, out there!
Got to get the bad weather over so we can fly out with ease later in the week. Love YOU, Mel
Get a smart tv, Maribeth, and you can watch all of the series and movies and documentaries you want. It hooks into your wireless. I paid 79$ for amazon prime and haven’t paid a penny more. If Jack wasnt so into watching sports, we would get rid of cable totally. I don’t watch any live tv and don’t watch most of what’s on, but I love a good series and love it even more with no commercials. So worthwhile. I was impressed with myself because when I told my daughter we had one, she didn’t know what it was!!!
