Who needs it?
It's July 4th weekend, my hubby has an extra day off work and was looking forward to a long and restful weekend lounging on the sofa, relaxing and watching golf on television. (Golf is his weekly highlight.) But, there are problems with our satellite reception.
Buz has
been up and down the ladder too many times to count trying to adjust the satellite dish in the past two weeks. The "Searching for Signal" is all too familiar and has become a regular part of our television viewing. We had the oak tree cut back (A LOT) to make sure there weren't any branches blocking the dish. He even took my phone up with him to check the degrees (there is a compass on my phone). N-o-t-h-i-n-g! All for naught! Zilch!
Then last weekend his hard work paid off...he had it fixed! Or so he thought...the next day it was out again!! So here we are again. He just told me "we" had a problem. "No sweetie, you have a problem; I do not need t.v. " No, I did not say that. Television is his second love, I think. Buzzy cannot be at home without it on. Having the t.v. on makes him happy and I'm all for keeping him happy! He works hard all week and t.v. has become just about his only pleasure. He's still working on it.
No, wait; he's calling me..."Didder, will you come help me play a movie?" "Yes darling...I'll be right there!" (The movie? Marley & Me...oh yeah, he'll be crying, for sure!)
Have a safe and fun Independence weekend! I don't think we'll be watching any t.v.; guess we might find some fireworks!!
...keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. ~Colossians 3:1(a),2
