EVERYTHINGS FINE

 

Let Us Entertain You

I watch a lot of tv. Always have. But now that I live in a nursing home, I spend much more time watching the "idiot tube". Older peeps will know that phrase. I am looking forward to some new and some old shows this fall.

I'll start with the new. Matlock. Love Kathy Bates. Such a talented actor. Her role in Misery almost made me not want to become a writer.  😆   Plus, I still watch the original Matlock. I'm not expecting it to be the same, but maybe some nod to the original.

Next, Elsbeth. I know it's not new but, I somehow missed it last year. I watched an episode last night and loved it!

I don't watch many reality shows. Two of them are Survivor and The Voice.

And now that I have blue tooth headphones I can't wait for those two.

Do you have any favorites or new shows you can't wait for? Comment below.

EVERYTHING'S FINE

 

Reading

A few nights ago, I watched Amy Poehler on The Tonight Show stating she made a commitment at the first of the year to read 50 books.

WOW

There is no way I could do that, even with all the time I have on my hands now. Plus, I'm addicted to true crime tv shows. What can I say. I like seeing how we kill each other and why. 😃

She brought a few with her and described them. There was a mixture of auto biographies and fiction. She admitted she had read one or two children's books. I'll give her that. Some of those are pretty good. She has read 30 as of August. Will she succeed? Not if she really reads her next selection. War and Peace. Not exactly on The New York Times list. She said she picked it because men she dates eventually ask her if she has read it. Weird. I wouldn't be able to read that in a year let alone a few weeks. But good luck to her.

I have a friend who pledges to complete a certain number of jigsaw puzzles in a year. Have you ever made such a commitment? I would love to hear about it. Comment below.
