My 2 year Anniversary without cable TV
Two years ago, I came home from work and my wife said the phrase all men dread to hear, “honey, I had the cable cancelled today…” It was late December 2006 and the College bowl season had just begun. What was I going to do? How was I going to ‘relax’ and watch the mandatory games. Not to mention all the channel surfing that occurs before bedtime!
Merry Christmas to You!
We are all preparing for a beautiful holiday this week and next. I pray that the Prince of Peace is alive and well in your daily life. May you be a light to your family and friends. I love each and every one of you. You are a blessing to me. I am counting each one this season. Our family is so blessed.
Love,
Robin
