I was this close, people.
I almost convinced the Husband to buy a big TV recently. It was a killer macho awesome windfall kind of a deal. But Mr. Logic says, "No, we'll wait till after we move. Wouldn't want the movers to break it, would ya?"

Fine. Be all sensible. I love that man.....and I know he's right.

But still......

Can you tell I have a bad case of LCD-itis? I am not alone. We were just about THE last family on Earth to get a DVD player. And I'm pretty sure we'll be the ONLY family left without a big flat TV....It's not that I want to keep up with the Joneses. I just want a better, fuller TV experience. We have special needs kiddos so we don't get to go out a lot. Entertaining at home IS the ONLY way we get to see movies....Really...

So what am I doing to make this possible? I'm utilizing online reward point programs (like SwagBucks, My Points, etc) and I'm pooling together my points and savings towards whichever TV I will eventually buy. I've "saved" about $125 off of THE TV so far. I'll get there...just you watch. I will not add to our debt to have a bigger TV. That would be flat out stupid. So I'll "point" my way to it....

What else have I been doing? Working out. Getting ready for the move. happily purging junk. I'm so ready to go :)
