Thanks for the tip on MeTV.....I have a feeling that's going to become a place I lose time.
ReplyDeleteThis is the year I turn 50 and I want it to be spectacular!
ReplyDeleteI love MeTV. I watch it at night when my husband isn't home. He has called and then asked, perplexed, "Is that Gilligan's Island?" Yes, Skipper. Except for The Big Bang Theory, there is very little "new" TV that I care for.
ReplyDeleteYou are very supportive as a friend. While I was going through one of the toughest years in my life, I appreciate everything you did and said...
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched METv since they messed with That Girl. I do have it on my favorites on the remote to check out what is on when I scan the stations.
ReplyDeleteHere's to learning not to worry so much! That can help with so many things, including that bathroom remodel.. :o) Sliding back to simpler times is a wonderful skill. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI had the same thought when I read the last question. I'll be happy to make it 20 more years!
