Roku Steaming Player










Ta-DA! We are no longer member of Dish Network anymore. It's wasting our money. For Dish, we pay $60.63 every month to just stare at TV. Also there are too many channels that we don't watch. We are now member Netflix and Hulu Plus. Both are each $8. We will only pay for around $18 per monthly. I prefer spend $18 than $60. I bought Roku 2 from Best Buy. I bought 2: one is in family room and second is in our master bedroom. Derek was impressed with my decision. I wanted to get new cell phone. I want Sidekick from T-Mobile back for $30 per monthly. Right now, our phones are $99.98 (that's pretty much for one bill). I wanted just one phone and one of us can use AIM on computer or iPod if one of us is out of house. Derek said no. :-(

I like screen saver on my bedroom TV. Especially night time. We are happy with our choice for this. I really want to save money than we spend more than we earn home. Since January 2012 started, I got crazy schedule. We got most of everything that we needed since we got married. I got new TV for my videophone, new computer, new desktop for computer, new fat TV (from Derek's parents', the kids broke our TV in family room), got most of the knitting tools stuffs, paints and repair tools in the house, paid off our credit card, new modem/router, got used "new" couch in family room, kitchen table and chairs, floor lamp, and kids stuffs. We spend more than we usually do since January. We got our tax refund, state refund, OIP (bonus money from Derek's work), 3 paychecks in this month, and normal paycheck(some of our bills are now reduced amount, so nice!) I want to pay off our 401K, but we will pay off next year with our tax refund then we will only focus on our house mortgage and van loan. I want to be able to afford anything than being tight budget. Also, I want to have little family fun, aka fairs, shopping, food, and/or etc. :-)
