MODERN FAMILY

MODERN FAMILY

Thanks to Roman May

I saw a show the other day on television that I had heard about, but never watched. “Modern Family” is now one of my new favorite shows. It has everything that you could want- comedy and drama. It is called “Modern Family” because it portrays a family that is not the “nuclear family” as we think about it. Today, more than ever, our families are not resembling the “nuclear family” of the nineteen fifties. The patriarch of the family, the Dad, is remarried to a Latin woman and has the cutest stepson ever- Manny! His son and his partner, have an adopted partner. The sister has more of the traditional “nuclear family”, but also has three kids. The show is about the interactions between the more “Modern Family” of today. It will keep you rolling on the floor laughing! For the guys, it also has the sexpot, Sophia Vergara, as one of the main characters. I read the other day that she was actually a blonde and dies her hair dark. I could never tell because she looks so great as a brunette!

We have good satellite TV and CLEAR deals now that our neighbors told us what service they were using. We were over there for dinner the other night and started to get into a discussion about how expensive internet and television were. My husband and I think that it is really expensive and they just didn’t think that it was that much. We ended up disclosing how much we each paid every month. I was shocked that they paid about fifty dollars less every month for the save type of services that we had. I just was totally shocked. I was kicking myself for not looking for a better deal sooner and just assuming that the price that I was getting was the going rate. So, I have scheduled an appointment for them to come out next week and install the internet and television. I really feel like a huge dummy and am kicking myself that I have been over spending for years. At least I learned about it now, a few more years of overpaying, I don’t know that I could handle knowing how much money I had just given away!
