Our Big Step Toward HDTV

 My grandchildren are always watching television over at my house.  Apparently, my children have forgotten the joys of cartoons and won't let  them watch much at home.  So every day after school, once they enter my  entree, the TV turns on and doesn't turn off until their parents come to  pick them up.
    My grandchildren are my joy and I love to observe them after they get out of school.  Yet, they complain every single day about how small my TV is  and how great theirs is at home.  I have no problem with watching my  television and I am nearly blind but apparently, technology has already  captured my 5 and 10 year old grandchildren.
    My spouse is also on the big HDTV rage and has been trying to talk me  into one forever.  I just don't see the point in laying down cash for something new  when I have something already working at home.   Last weekend, we were at the outlet and my spouse dragged me into Best  Buy to look around, just like he always does.  He also took me by the  hand through the HDTV section as he always does to show me all the outstanding  high definition channels they have on show.
    I must declare that it all does look nice and all but I am caught in  sticker shock.  My husband then had me converse to a salesperson about all the  offers they have at the moment such as free interest if you open up a  card through them or 10% off the purchase.  The 10% didn't seem like much  but it did help with handling the tax on the television and I guess my  grandkids would truly love to view their shows on a nice HDTV.  I  told the salesperson to hurry up and ring it up before I changed my mind.
 Now, I am home with my new high definition television and it is quite  spectacular.  My poor eyes don't have to strain to see a small picture  anymore because the screen is big enough for me to see everything with no  problems.  My grandchildren rushed over when they heard of the  purchase and you would have thought it was Christmas morning. 

They could notwait to turn it on and watch their shows. What a delight it was tocatch them so excited!   So I guess I have now jumped into the 21st century with high  definition.  At least I won't have to hear anymore about how great the HDTV is  because I already know.
