Love my nana but she’s what they call used to call a "spry little thing".

For someone who remembers when Eisenhower was President, has it pretty together and loves to stay young.  Problem is keeping her entertained.  She loves shopping and raves about new things like televisions, TV pricing and other electronic advancements.  Her friends that are young enough to keep up with her have family or work obligations and watching regular TV all the time can be boring after a while.  Every time I would ask about getting Dish TV for her home, she would just shrug and change the subject to when I’m going to have kids.

Have you heard of a “mama’s boy”?  Well, my brother is a 6”4, 260 lb. “nana’s boy” who loves to rub it in people’s faces.  Everything he does is magic in her eyes.  Not hating but one time at a cookout where he burned almost every animal on the farm and sea beyond recognition (thank God I’m a vegan), my nana gushed until no end about how much she loved his DirecTV. He went on and on until I threatened to shove my corn on the cob down his throat.  Yeah, I was a guest in his home but sometimes his bragging really works my nerves.

Mom resolved the whole argument (as always) by saying that our nana needs to one day just take her time and go over all the direct satellite tv offers one by one and pick one that fits her viewing needs.
