In fact cable TV isn't expensive here at all. However, I still cancelled it. Since it is quite convenient for me to watch everything via the net from my TV. So I am not interested in having cable TV any more. A penny saved is a...

Lately, I cut down on my cable TV. With my wife not being able to work full time because of health issues, it was necessary. My wife, at first, was sad. Nonetheless, to keep she who must be obeyed happy, I subscribed to Hulu....

I know it would be nice to have cable but it is added expenses for the family. There are a lot of choices for good shows when you have cable. Can you afford a cable tv?

When my husband was alive, the remote control was his. There was a tacit agreement about what was mine and what was his. The remote control belonged to him and I discovered that many of my woman friends had lost the thingy.

Sometimes we women have to do things at home when no man is at home and no one to rely on to for fixing things.
This morning, the cable TV didn't work because there could be a power outage at the place where the office of the...
