TV Blues



So today I went to pop a movie in and my TV stopped working. It was a 32 inch Philips HDTV. I have only had it a little over a year. I have noticed the picture has been kinda fuzzy sometimes so something happen to the tube I am sure, and out of warranty of course. I panicked and searched flyers to get another TV, I have back up TV's but the biggest is like 15 inches.. I just can't make it with a small, non-HDTV! I kept hearing Suze Orman in my head saying " YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT, DENIED", but I went to Walmart and bought a cheaper Vizio 32 inch anyways, with a 3 year warranty.... I really can't afford it as I am so focused on getting out of debt. But I just cashed out my Ameritrade "Save Yourself" account in which Suze Orman gave me $100 for saving $50 a month for the last year. So I guess I saved for my new TV.. Sorry Credit Cards, you will get paid off soon.

I weigh in tomorrow and feel really good about my last weeks results. I have been working out everyday, and feel great. I also started back on my Wii Fit today, which I beat all previous records! I just need to keep it up, tomorrow I will post my weight and hopefully the 3 lemonade and vodkas won't sabotage my weight loss tomorrow haha..

Picture is of the Eiffel Tower in Paris I took in May of 2006, I want to go back next year!!

I've heard those Vizio tv's aren't too bad! That totally stinks that your Samsung died after only a year! That makes me paranoid about our Samsung since we didn't get any kind of extended warranty either.

Good luck with the w/i! I'm sure it went AWESOME!! And even if it didn't, there's always the next week! :)

Ya its actually a Philips- I need to change my blog, the one that died.. I watched Nacho Libre today and thought of you.. the Xoxox made me think of the part when he says " big hug, little kiss, small hug, big kiss" lol- That movie gets funnier each time I see it! :)

hahaha I so love that movie! Its been awhile since we've seen it, too. Whenever we watch it, I remember watching that part with you where Nacho goes into the "weelderness", and the villagers wave & say "Hola, Nacho!" hahaha, I love it :)
