Change is Here

I've had this blog for over 3 years now, but it's time that I move to a big girl blog with my own domain name. So, please adjust your bookmarks, RSS feeds, etc to go to... drum roll please...

Lessons in Motherhood (www.lessonsinmotherhood.com)

Don't worry, all of the old blog posts and comments will be there. I know that this is a bit of a pain, but I'm willing to bribe you. Yeah, I'll bribe you with pictures of my children. Who wouldn't want to see pictures of my children? If you want to see pictures of my children, then you'll just have to go to the new blog. See you there.

Direct TV Debacle

After weeks of intense debate and much consternation, we decided to switch from cable TV to Direct TV. One of the main reasons was to get the football games so that we didn't have to go to bars and restaurants to see them. So, today was the big day. Luke worked from home so that the installers could come over. He also had Comcast come over to get rid of our cable. You can probably see where this is going.

After checking out our three story house, Direct TV decides that there's no way to install a satellite dish on the house. Despite my husband's passionate pleas with the installation company, they say NO WAY! By this time, Comcast has already unhooked our cable. So, that's right, we are cableless. No TV. None. No football on Sunday. Nothing. I'm trying to convince Luke to leave the cable off for a month, but I don't know how well that's going to work out.

The bonus for you is that with no TV, you can almost guarantee that I'll finally get you some pictures of the girls.
