I’m a mom who rarely has the luxury of time to go out for some recreation. I don’t have much choice with my busy schedule but to set it on this routine: home-work-home.   When I’m home, I love watching TV next to blogging.  It’s a practical way to watch good films that I missed on the big screen.  And there are many of them!

I love watching HBO, Cinemax, Discovery Channel, to name a few.   My daughter prefers music channels and my husband loves watching the news on CNN and Fox News. With my family’s diverse viewing preferences, local channels wouldn’t suffice. If you’re fond of TV too, Satellite Directv can be a smart option for you and your family.  I heard a lot of Americans have made a switch from cable to Direct Satellite TV over the following reasons: clearer picture, fewer signal outages, better rates and customer service.  I can’t know for sure because we don’t have it here yet in the Philippines.  But the buzz I’ve been reading on the internet indicates that  Direct TV is a good alternative to cable tv.

I’m curious.  I’ve always been fascinated seeing homes with satellite dishes.  D’ya have one?

Was there ever a time when your TV screwed up on you while you were watching a TV show you were dying to see?  Frustrating, wasn’t it?

Last week, just as American Idol was about to start, our TV did just that - it showed nothing more but shiny silvery specks.   No audio either except for the excruciating hiss.   Noooo!

I’m so tired of getting inferior TV signal which shouldn’t be tormenting me if ONLY I had something like Direct TV.

Watching television is our family’s favorite pastime and I tell you, poor signal has been an awful cause of fighting between me and my hubby.  He just blows his top whenever the TV is down and I always get the blame for not getting deals similar to America’s Direct Satellite TV.  I wish I could find any DirecTV Specials here that would ever satisfy him - clear signal, better channels, value for money.   As for now, when our TV screws up, I just seal my lips to avoid arguments.
