On the waggon for two weeks and trying to get off

Our TV has been 'broken' for two weeks to clear up some bad behavior. Daddy broke it by removing the three prong adapter from the power strip. Saturday (3/1/08) Collin was Daddy's shadow working out in the yard and in the garage. After 'helping' remove some hardware from the old garage side door Collin dissppeared inside. We found him 'fixing' the TV: power drill, screw drivers and all. Notice the screw driver crammed into the input on the front of the TV. With Collin's fix it job the TV may very well be broken now. Who knows, it hasn't been turned on to find out because everyone is still on the wagon. (and yes, the behavior is better, no more nagging every single morning to watch morning cartoons)

I loved that picture of Collin and the power drill. What a little man!

We're actually in the same boat. Our TV has mysteriously broken. I don't think any tools were involved, but I'm 99% certain that my two little mischief-makers had something to do with it. Do you ever feel like they gang up on you?

It's a little surprising, but we actually like not having a TV anymore. I think we're going to cancel the cable subscription and start using our entertainment center to store books. Of course, we'll continue watching "The Office" online... (wink)

Oh, the office of course. I can't wait for April 10th for a new episode. We also do love not watching TV. At first it was hard but now we love it. We all read a lot more books. What a great plan for the entertainment center. Nice hearing from you Steph.

What a smartie-pants! We didn't watch TV at all for the first two years of our marriage, it was great! We've recently talked about canceling cable and letting it go again. It's amazing how when you don't watch it for a while you don't miss it.
