Bye-Bye Mela...(wimper, sniffle, tear)

Mela went to the shelter. And, I cried like the little bitch that I am. I didn't want to leave her there, but she apparently needed like 400 bucks worth of vet care, and since I'm broke and am seriously thinking about blowing up this house anyway...I knew I couldn't keep her.

My TV is a goner. We went TV shopping today and the best deal we've found so far (that's affordable right now for us without actually financing something) is a 27 inch flat screen Sharp for 200 bucks. We're sitting on it right now trying to decide if we want to go back and get it or not.

The 36 inch that's been upstairs in our room we brought down. It spontaneously shuts itself off, that is if you can watch it long enough for it to do that without getting sea-sick from the bouncing. The picture tube in that is going out, and that's 150 to fix. So...here's our predicament. Either A: be without a tv for up to 2 weeks while the 36 is being fixed or B: buy a new tv and pay 50 bucks more and still have the old tv that we'll still have to fix.

Oh what to do, Oh what to do.

Update later.

I think you should just get rid of the TV altogether:-) Think of all the stuff you'd have time for!!

We've decided to just wait, and to not do neither one. We're gonna tough it out with the bouncing and just wait a few weeks until Jas starts his new job and we can actually afford a tv. Then, if the Gods are good to us (lol) then we'll get the tv we want.

Read books, the whole family will be better off. Or play games with the kids... TV sucks the life out of us... don't succumb...
