These days the dollar stores are your friend. You can find all kinds of real bargains with a bit of searching through local stores. It's no coincidence that shares in the franchise have risen sharply since the credit crunch began! Good luck, and I hope your money woes end soon.

You are hilarious and so real it's refreshing. So... I was thinking you could come to my house for dinner (I don't think I like cat or dog) and if you can stand the small, old TV we can watch and eat while we laugh about all the people responsibly paying their bills instead of paying for cable and cell phones. Ta heee... yea, that felt good. Thanks for the chuckle! I am never disappointed when I click to your blog. You are hilarious and so real it’s refreshing.

I totally could have written this exact post, just not as well! LOL I am in this boat right now and am hoping things will start to look up. I just cut my cable and I still don't know where I found the strength for that one! I keep telling myself that I want my kids to read more and that cutting the cable will help me accomplish this. Maybe I will become a craft- loving, book-reading mama with only expanded basic cable to pass the time. Here's to tightening the purse strings and better times ahead. ;) Thanks for the great post!

But then, that doesn't work. I think the Universe might be telling you it's time to go vegan and dump the TV for board games, like Monopoly! how ironic, Monopoly ha ha!!! oh girl, you’d better not eat the dog or I will force you to watch Dog Song2 over and over until it works like zapping gay guys with jolts of electricity when they view naked boys.

I knew Erma Bombeck and you're no Erma Bombeck - but you're close :-) She got paid rather well, and um, I'm guessing based upon this post, you don't - yet. Actually, come to think of it, Phil Donahue is also from my hometown. But since your Costco card might not allow you to have cable for much longer you...wait! Phil's show is not on t.v. anymore. Whew. We're safe. You had me laughing all the way through your sob story, as if I were laughing at myself. Crap. Not that I have time to get interested in your blog. Well, come to think of it, if I don't have cable & TiVo anymore, I guess there will be time. Crap again. Jenny,

My husband was unemployed and couldn't LIVE without the tv. Kudos to you for writing this...I was thinking about the same thing but my embarassment was stopping me. You made it funny and not embarassing. Thanks! susan Jenny,
