Cable installation - new internet?

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the new AT&T/SBC Cable TV/Wireless internet bundled package deals.

I'm not up to paying $115 a month for new high-speed internet service, yet my 15 year old's computer animation habits and upcoming digital filmmaking class this year may prompt me to at least pay $65.00 for a bundled cable/internet/VOIP package.

Any thoughts?

Tax Free Weekend in Texas (Aug 17-19)

Guess what? It's Tax-Free weekend here in Texas, at least on school-related items, up to $100, including backpacks and athletic shoes.

If you are braver than myself and enjoy shopping with mass crowds, go for it! 8.25% is a lot of sales tax in Houston. In addition, some stores offer additional discounts.

You may see me at the local grocery store. My back-to-school shopping is complete, other than the few odd supplies such as binders and a few more t-shirts. Enjoy the discounts...Terre

New Horizons

I've got great news this week. I start a new oil industry job as a Project Admin. Asst. in just 10 days. I'm hoping this is my big break. Am I ever willing to work hard for this one? You bet! I'm looking at the eight-year plan for me and my son...four years of high school and four years of college. And then a new life for me, the mom, afterwards.

I also bit the bullet and bought a new car last week, yes, on a payment plan. It's going to cost me approx. $250.00 per month extra to pay for the new car and the associated insurance.

Boost to my sense of confidence and independence...PRICELESS ! Ending my worries about breaking down on the road...CAREFREE! Having a car with a built-in alarm - WELL WORTH IT ! Ability to play my choir CD's and sing to my heart's delight - TOO MUCH FUN!!! (with the added bonus that no one has to hear me sing out of tune...)

It's all about choices. Think it through and attempt to choose wisely. Until next time...Terre
