lucylee, we have D irectv. I hadn't heard about the Fox hoopla. We also have what is suppose to be basic cable with our internet but they can't separate the channels, so we get everything but the movie channels on cable. When we move we are going to switch to just cable. Dh wants to get the HD (high def)and DVR (recording) options, also. I am thinking about checking on their phone prices. I want unlimited long distance which we now have with AT&T. Hopefully I could save some money by combining everything.
Didn't accomplish much today. I went to the furniture store that is having the "big" sale. It is half off the Manufacturers suggested retail price, instead of their normal prices. In other words, it's not much of a sale and I couldn't find any furniture for the living room. Everything looked more like what I want in the family room. We decided that we will use what we have for the living room and buy new for the basement family room. I found a dinette set that I liked. We are going to end up with more than enough seating for all of us, because we will have 4 bar stools plus the formal dining room furniture. I guess that was the whole point of buying this house, so that we would have more room to spread out when they are all there.
Dd2 is leaving a queen size bed. I am putting that in dgd15 room. That way she can spend the night if she needs to. I also told her that if she needs a place to change clothes, etc., she is welcome to come there rather than having to drive all the way home.
I had a meltdown today. Dd2 told her ex about the move. If they can't get a transfer for the boys to stay where they are next school year, he wants them to go close to his house. She wants them to go to the country school that is the school for her area. The meltdown had to do with the stress that this will cause. Luckily, dd2 said if she absolutely has to she will give in rather than him try to get them fulltime so they can go where he wants. She just gets tired of him getting his way, all the time. She feels like he cheated on her and ruined their marriage, now he's interested in being a father and she is the one getting hurt by only having them half the time.
Yikes, it's late and I better head to bed.................
