Let’s Try This Again.
We were supposed to go to Flagstaff a few weeks ago…remember this post? That storm was labeled “The Storm Of The Century” in Flagstaff (capital letters added for effect). I mean, they did shut down I-17 for like 3 days. The kids were so bummed out. We had a good weekend anyway.
Fast forward to this weekend. We’re trying again! And we should have no difficulties this time. Roads are clear, and in fact, I’m wondering if there will be enough snow so we can sled? I will keep you posted…and post pictures, of course. We’ll be bunking with my cousins this weekend, too, which should be a lot of fun.
I am nervous, though. I will admit it. My parents got rid of their satellite TV to help trim down costs. The sad part is that they have this beautiful new (47 inch?) flat screen that they can only use for movies. I think under normal circumstances I’d be okay. I don’t want you thinking we sit in front of the TV all day every day, but we do enjoy TV. Like I was saying, normally it wouldn’t be too bad except I’m missing some good Olympic TV. Women’s figure skating is tonight. Apollo Anton Ohno is on Saturday. Hockey is on Sunday (I think). I don’t want to miss all that stuff…we are loving the Olympics right now.
And I gently reminded Brett that he wasn’t going to be able to head to a sports bar with Cousin to partake in the Olympic festivities without me.
How long could you go without TV?
We watch a little TV every day. I could go without it if I had to, but I really enjoy getting to watch a good show and forget about things for awhile. Hope Flagstaff is fun! We need to get up there ourselves soon.
