Telly stuff

Standard

I’m glad to see at least some of my old shows are coming back on like ‘Lost’ and ‘Survivor-fans vs faves’. Last night I flipped on TLC and watched ‘Jon and Kate plus 8’, the couple from the Hershey, PA area with a set of twins and sextuplets! Every time they show Kate in the video with her large watermelon size tummy, I cringe. Lucky for her she got a major tummy tuck-because of this show! A plastic surgeon’s wife saw her show her post belly and she wanted to help. I really like Kate a lot-she has a ton of personality and I like how she teases Jon and of course he teases her back. BUT, how cute are their 8 kids! Too cute!

I just read ‘their story’ and they are religious like the following family.

After that show, the Duggar family special came on. It highlighted the birth of child number 17! Oh my! They live in a huge fairly new home (it better be huge!) and they are debt free. Now how do they do that? I don’t think the oldest boy is going to college, though I’m not sure. But they are super religious, super musical (they play piano and violin!) and super organized. I was checking out the recipe page of their online site-not healthy eating there folks-i.e.-tater tot casserole! Their other specials were highlighted and their RV trip to California was cool except when all of them except 3 had to use a barf bag while flying over the Grand Canyon in a small plane. I guess they don’t believe in Dramamine.

Tonight I watched a tattoo show after I was on the computer. That’s it.

I did get to Trader Joe’s (a grocery store with more healthful and organic foods) and wasn’t as impressed as I am by the one in my hometown. Bri just told me the Acme down the road is closing-hello-empty space-for a Trader Joe’s! (or Whole Foods).

I’m laying low today (written actually yesterday) as it’s going to be cold and windy. I have enough to do around here. Too much tidying at mom’s so put me not in the mood to clean. I am wanting to stitch the freebie from a few years back for Groundhog’s Day since I love that Bill Murray movie and it’s a big deal around PA. Now where is the chart? It looks like this:

  1. My youngest dd and I love watching the Monday TLC lineup. 🙂 I’d never caught one of the Dugger’s episodes before so I recorded it and watched it the next day. They are an amazing family and very blessed. At one point I thought about perhaps expanding my outlook to nine children, but by then I’d had twins, was getting older and felt my quiver was full with seven. I just wish I had more of Mrs. Dugger’s discipline! WOW!
