It has been COLD here all week...30's at night and 40's during the day...not fun! This weekend it's finally suppose to shoot up to the 80's and I'm SO ready!
SO...Go forth and have a super weekend! We are playing around with some "free" TV stuff...Hubby is suppose to hook it up to see if it works. IF it works like we think it should, we are going to cancel Direct TV...I'm SICK of the rates going up, up, up...Last month it was $102, this month it went up to $108 and we did NOT purchase anything new on our package. That's a bunch of money every year!
I'll also let you know what we installed...no sense talking about it if it doesn't work...Happy Weekend!

I wonder what my hourly cost is sometimes for the TV.Notmuch on when i get off at 10:30 pm so sometimes I like to have it.I went 15 years with an antennae when my kids were at home,it got us out playing more than glued to the tube.
Congratulations to your company!
Great acceptance photo! Those 2 are sooooooooooooooo photogenic.
Ohhh, hope the tv thing works, so you can share the info.

Congratulations on your award!! What we have here...every year people write in to the local newspaper and cast their votes for best plumber, restaurant, etc. Then it is published in a big section of the paper. We just recently cancelled direct T.V. Though we loved it, we paid $100.00 a month!!! And no local channels! We went with our local fiber optic company and got more channels, local channels, it does not go out as much and all for $50.00 a month!! I hear now that you can record up to five shows at once on direct T.V. I think they are offering a lot of new things because so many people are leaving.
Congratulations to your company. Those two young people are so fresh-looking and as if they're ready to take like head-on. Hope you're keeping well. (((Hugs))) Jo
Congratulations! That's wonderful!
Awesome! You guys deserve awards, and I love the photo.
I've never had cable or direct tv but I have a nice tv and get two channels if it's not rainy out here in the stix. Oh, and an antennae with tin foil. LOL
Now, you go forth and have a good weekend (let us know if it works).
xoxo
Congratulations on your award.
Congratulations! Great photo of your daughter and her hubby! I know what you mean about the rates going up. We had regular C Band dish for our t.v. and they kept going up and kept trying to get us to go Direct TV which was way higher than the C band for what we were getting so we unplugged it all and have an antenna for our local t.v. channels (free) and an Apple t.v. box (Cost $99) but we pay $12 I think for Netflix and can watch movies, documentaries and even t.v. shows and series. Usually a season or two behind but who cares. It's cheap!!
Staas ist gud. ;)
I am so fed up with Time Warner Cable (prices and service) and Netflix and even our (new bodacious flatscreen) TV sometimes wears me out. We called today for a free estimate on someone locally who comes out and sets everything up for you the right way and gets it working so you have only one remote no wires where they're not supposed to be, et cetera. I hope we can get the work done. And YAY for Staas Plumbing. I'm sure you got the award for being lovely people and a wonderful family as much as for the GREAT work I am sure you do. Crystal and Tim look so cute in the pic. Enjoy your warm temps! xoxo
Donna, Congratulations on your award! It is always good to be appreciated for the good that you do.
My husband and I were so fed up with Direct TV...our rate had gone up to $125 that we cancelled. We tried to negotiate for half that cost but they wouldn't budge. Now every few days we get mail from them offering low start up rates for a two year contract. NO way!
We have Netflix for $8 a month. You don't get news or anything but I dont' care. It keeps me happy with movies and old tv shows.
Brilliant news on the award! And great picture, too.
I know what you mean about the rates going up - we have Sky and it's extortionate. They put the price up whenever they feel like it but we get nothing else for it and to be honest, there is so much rubbish on telly these days I don't think half of it's worth it anyway!!!

Congrats on the award!!!! I wish you had a branch here!
Let me know about the TV stuff if it works out. I've been looking into a digital antenna but we're so far away from Memphis and Little Rock and from what I've read you need to live within 50 miles or so to get reception. :-(
What is free tv - Comcast is the same way as direct tv.
Congrats on your award!!!

YAY!! Congrats on your award, Miss Donna~ and a very handsome couple to receive it! :)
We had DirecTV once, but we now have Dish Network and we only pay about $30 a month! We don't have the fancy package with 300 channels of course, but we don't watch a lot of TV anyway, especially this time of year. Good luck!
