Come to those who wait. For a couple years now, I have wanted to put a flat panel television in Louie’s pool area…well, ever since we bought the little fireplace. I thought it would complete the look and purpose of the area. There are many evenings when Louie is playing pool, and watching a ball game, or something on television, and he will keep peeking around the corner to see the television in our living room area. Since that time, when we got the fireplace, I have expressed my wish to Louie, and he thought it was a great idea, but that other things were more important, and the price was always more than we wanted to pay.
Well, in the past few years, prices have come down a bit, and yesterday, we agreed to go ahead with the purchase. We were able to get a deal because the box had been opened, and the wall hanger bracket was on sale too.
My brother and sister-in-law were with us, so they followed us home so they could help us put it up. What we didn’t realize, was that with HDTV, we are now able to get about 100 more channels than what we had previously been getting, just through the basic coax into the back of the tv. What a pleasant surprise.
We love it, and even though we waited, it was worth it….and if the quilting girls get to use it, well, that’s ok too!
Be blessed, Michelle
Thanks for stopping by my new blog. I have been wanting to start for a while now. Marlene is a dear friend and I love reading hers daily. She is a wonderful woman, and has been a tremendous support to me during difficult times. Best of all she is the one who taught me to quilt. I just wish I had more time:)

ReplyDeleteI bet Louie was excited to have his own tv...well at least for most of the time it is his...and he can select what ever shows he wishes to see.

ReplyDeleteVery nice! I love those tv's! Mom has a big one and when I come home from her house it makes my old 32" seem so small!!! I'm sure you and Louie will get lots of enjoyment out of it.
