October 10, 2007

A few weeks ago I was having a really bad day, and on top of everything else I was tired of worrying so much about money. I started cancelling anything that seemed unnecessary at the moment. I cancelled the electricity in Joe's shop, caller ID and call waiting, and Direct TV. The Direct TV account was paid until sometime in October so I've still had TV even though it was actually cancelled.

Well, I was in the living room tonight watching Jimmy Kimmel while I ironed, and all of a sudden the TV went black. At first I thought something was just temporarily wrong. Then it hit me. I have no TV service.

When I cancelled it I really didn't think I would miss it....we don't watch much TV anyway. But tonight I realized that its going to be hard to be without it. I always turn it on after the kids go to bed.....just to have noise in the house. The TV kept me from realizing how quiet and lonely it is here. Not anymore though. Now I'm going to be forced to face reality.
