A nice sunny day that was a little warmer. Worked out in the field most of the day visiting some clients. Nice to be out and about. Got out of work at a decent time for a change, came home, picked the whole Christmas tree up, bulbs, lights, angel and all and carried it out the back door to the garage to be "plucked" later this weekend. Unorthodox, yes, but effective nun the less. Turkey sandwich and soup for dinner, national championship game on the new "tube" and Bama just won. Not a big Bama fan but a big Texas hater. Rebecca not feeling to well and sacked out early, trusting that the Lord will give her a good nights rest and she will feel better in the morning. God is good.....all the time. Night all.

Is this North Dakota or South Carolina? May actually see some snow flurries, but I doubt it. Full day of problems and solutions, God is so good. Worked late and took care of making the big leap to get off of Comcast once and for all. Ho rah!!! Trying AT&T, will see how it goes. Spent the evening with my lovely wife checking out the new Flat Screen. Man.....the picture of this Samsung 750 series 240Hz 1080p is beyond belief, never seen anything like it. It;s like 3d or something, and it's not like this is our first 1080p HD TV. It just blows the one that Best Buy was kind enough to replace, the Sony. It was junk! The Lord gave us favor, he cares so much that he even tends to the details and the small things. No walk this evening, inside of my legs are chaffed, more than anyone wanted to know. Will try and get back at it on Thursday. Finishing up on the blog and some Facebook, then hitting the hay. Good night all.

Yet another cold, cold day. Waited for the repair guy to get here but decided to go by Best Buy before they arrived. The store manager that was supposed to be there at 7:30 this morning was not there and would not be until 1 pm. Not good. I spoke with an assistant manager named Brian , told him about the saga and he said he could help. After a little verification with the Geek Squad, it was determined that we would replace the Sony with a new Samsung LCD at no additional charge to me. I will need to purchase an extended warranty for future protection but have 30 days to do so. Was able to get it home and hooked up with the help of my wife. Man, WHAT A PICTURE!!! Very happy. I give all the glory to God and His favor and blessing. The Lord worked this situation out and gave us favor. Had turkey sandwiches with new potatoes for dinner. Got the 1.68 mile walk in, TV set up and heading to bed. Sleep tight all.

Monday and cold as crap. Still working on this TV thing, Found out that my Sony was involved in a law suite and Sony lost, will repair but will use refurbished parts. Not at all happy with that proposition. Went to Best Buy where we got the set, spoke to the manager on duty, brought him a pile of articles about the class action suite against Sony, he said he would get the store manager to look at the situation and give me a call on Tuesday 1/5/10, but indicated that they were probably not going to help at this time. Well see. Started working on the weight problem, flat bread sandwich for lunch, turkey and veggies for dinner, walked 1.63 miles. It's a start. Pray that the Lord helps me with this and gives me the strength to succeed. I place my trust in Him. Reading more about the TV, not getting any happier about the situation. Good night all.

Twas a cold day in ole' Charleston SC. Started the day at church, wonderful way to start the new year. What a blessing. Too cold to do much but I did manage to get the back yard cleared of "doggy droppings", leaves blows away and the grass cut. Rebecca got her nails done, didn't do much after that. Ordered dinner in and tried to get ready for a new work week. Big Screen on the glitch, started on New Years day, everyone had a green tint on them. Called for a work order under warranty, will be out on Tuesday 1/5/10. I have determined after much Internet investigation that the problem is the optical block, $1100.00 worth of repair without my extended warranty. Bummer man. Will see hoe it goes. They will most likely want to have my TV for like a week or two. We'll get things worked out. Have a good week and may the Lord bless you.

Direct TV is back at the Henderson household! Yea! Climbed out of bed by 10 am, the installer was here by noon, and unlike the installer who came out to install when we moved into the new house back in Nov. 09 and said that we could not get a "field of view" for the satellite, then climbed in his truck and booked, this guy actually made an effort, got the ladder off the truck, found a spot with an excellent signal, and did the install. To bad that the first guy didn't put the effort in, because if he had I wouldn't have had to have Comcast put their crap in my house and pay for a huge installation bill only to have to have it jerked back out again. But it was worth the hassle, Direct TV is so much better. I'm at one with the dish again. If you don't have Direct TV, try it, it's worth it just to get "GOD" TV. Lots of blessings there. Rebecca lounged and I didn't ever leave the house or do anything of value, didn't even cook......Pizza Hut was the cook tonight. Very cold with temps in the 20's tonight. I thought this was the Sunny South.....what happened. Stll so blessed to live in such a wonderful location. Good night all.

Happy New Years to all. Quiet day at home with my mother, sister and my wonderful wife Rebecca. Dined on cabbage and corned beef, corn, potatoes, carrots and cherry bread pudding. Rebecca took the opportunity to catch up on some much needed rest and my sister Tawnya, my mother and I watched WVU loose to Florida State in Bobby Bowden's last game as FSU football coach. Most of the day was rainy and chilly, but the sun found its way through late in the afternoon. The 3 "furry" kids, Hunter, Mountie and Shelby Doodle enjoyed scraps in their dinner and were treated with "Peanut Butter Pigs Ears" from my sister and mother. Twas a good time of fellowship and family. A great start to the New Year.
