I think you are very lucky to get no TV signal! It means you can exercise control whilst having a good excuse for having no live TV. Also, by renting films you get to miss all the advertising! I can't take any credit for the top picture on my blog, unfortunately. I downloaded it with the theme. But I like it too! :) Hi Deb,

Thankfully we don't get t.v. reception and haven't for 8 years! So, no t.v. for my toddler. We do rent movies when there is something good to watch...kind of rare, but then we do it as a family, usually. The other day at the gym I was watching one of the t.v.'s that was on. It was the morning program, showing the new toys out for children. Many of them showed big screens, and then the child interacted on a bike, etc. instead of a joy stick. I thought, 'how sad that we still have to have a screen to get the child's attention, rather then the child going outside to run around and play or ride a bike!' BTW, I usually watch the food network when I'm at the gym...I don't know what that does for working out, probably cancels it all! lol Love the picture here at your blog, Stephen!
