I just bought myself a Christmas present!

I have a tv upstairs in my office, equipped with rabbit ears. I can get CBS on this tv, and that is pretty much it. Come Feb, i will get zilch. So, today i called the cable company, and found that it will cost $41.25 for them to come out and equip me with a new cable box. Woowhoo...a treat for me. I spend a lot of time up here, as it is also my craft room. I like to have the tv on for background, and well...you know i am a tv addict. Honestly, i cannot believe i lasted an entire year with just CBS!! I see myself spending a LOT more time up in this room now, which will save us SO much money for several reasons. First, i do not have to have the propane fireplace running in this room, like i do in the downstairs tv room. Second, the tv downstairs is HUGE, and uses a LOT of electricity. By watching up here, i will lengthen the life of the tv downstairs, because heaven forbid i turn a tv off and read a book. So really, i did not just buy myself a Christmas present...i SAVED us money. SO, with that said...i guess i can go find another Christmas present now! ;o)
