I'm a retired florist so yeah, the arrangement that Scott sent looked like a funeral arrangement. Red roses = love. Since he wanted to declare his love with 365 roses, I can understand why maybe the florist decided to arrange the roses that way. The container would be huge and extremely heavy to carry. It's just kinda sad that he probably spent big bucks on that arrangement and it won't last long because it's probably in wet oasis, which tends to dry out. His intentions were good.

It's interesting to me how everyone perceives the Carole/Bethenny "friendship" or what is left of it. There is much conjecture and speculation on our parts. We can't know what goes on behind the scenes, but of course we all have our opinions. ;) It's either team Carole or team Bethenny without much in between. I am not team Bethenny. She is so exhausting and exasperating. Talk about smug! I couldn't be around someone like that. I think Carole finally saw the real Bethenny. (just my oh so humble opinion) Carole didn't like what she was seeing and is trying to distance herself. I totally understand this as it's happened to me in the past few years. Some people just suck the life out of you with their constant neediness. Bethenny berates Carole for silly things which is so immature. She age shames her and makes fun of what she wears. I have friends that wear things of a questionable nature. I don't put them down for it. If it makes them feel good, then more power to them. If I looked as good as Carole, I'd probably wear some of the things she does too. I don't know...think I'm ready for Bethenny to move on from this franchise. She is taking the fun out of it.

I know right?!? What the hell happened to it? She knows Terry Dubrow. You'd think she'd try to get it fixed. Yikes! :O

For those of you that have Amazon Prime, they are now showing seasons 1-7. Yay!!! I'm so excited! :D

Yes I took it to mean the same thing...she doesn't drink when she exercises. I should do that. LOL! I thought Dorinda looked great on WWHL! Loved the hair do and she did look as though she had lost some weight. Good on ya Doris!

It always seemed to me that Ramona and Sonja were such good friends. Now that Sonja has Bethenny in her corner, she talks shit about Ramona in her THs. Yeah Ramona is classic open mouth insert foot. Ramona isn't my favorite howive, but I suppose Sonja is feeling her Wheaties with Beth as her BFF now. I like Carole and I like Dorinda. There! I said it! :p LOL! Bethenny is the shrillest shrew of them all. She's a hypocritical know it all. Yeah...she knows it all. <eye roll>

My parents are over 80 and they can't stand him. I just turned 60 and have never, ever been excited by Wayne Newton! He's gotten some really bad plastic surgery, and his voice is so gone! Yuck!

I am so incredibly sad about his death and I don't know what to do about it. No other celebrity death has effected me as much as this one. So fucking crazy! My husband and I are going out of town tomorrow until Tuesday. We are kayakers and I cannot wait to get on the water and feel some sense of peace. I hope the water will guide me and tell me what to do with all this sadness. It's too much!

I found this on another forum I frequent. So insightful and explains depression in a way that may be easier to understand. The author is anonymous. Now Anthony Bourdain. When you have depression it’s like it snows every day. Some days it’s only a couple of inches. It’s a pain in the a**, but you still make it to work, the grocery store. Sure, maybe you skip the gym or your friend’s birthday party, but it IS still snowing and who knows how bad it might get tonight. Probably better to just head home. Your friend notices, but probably just thinks you are flaky now, or kind of an *******. Some days it snows a foot. You spend an hour shoveling out your driveway and are late to work. Your back and hands hurt from shoveling. You leave early because it’s really coming down out there. Your boss notices. Some days it snows four feet. You shovel all morning but your street never gets plowed. You are not making it to work, or anywhere else for that matter. You are so sore and tired you just get back in the bed. By the time you wake up, all your shoveling has filled back in with snow. Looks like your phone rang; people are wondering where you are. You don’t feel like calling them back, too tired from all the shoveling. Plus they don’t get this much snow at their house so they don’t understand why you’re still stuck at home. They just think you’re lazy or weak, although they rarely come out and say it. Some weeks it’s a full-blown blizzard. When you open your door, it’s to a wall of snow. The power flickers, then goes out. It’s too cold to sit in the living room anymore, so you get back into bed with all your clothes on. The stove and microwave won’t work so you eat a cold Pop Tart and call that dinner. You haven’t taken a shower in three days, but how could you at this point? You’re too cold to do anything except sleep. Sometimes people get snowed in for the winter. The cold seeps in. No communication in or out. The food runs out. What can you even do, tunnel out of a forty foot snow bank with your hands? How far away is help? Can you even get there in a blizzard? If you do, can they even help you at this point? Maybe it’s death to stay here, but it’s death to go out there too. The thing is, when it snows all the time, you get worn all the way down. You get tired of being cold. You get tired of hurting all the time from shoveling, but if you don’t shovel on the light days, it builds up to something unmanageable on the heavy days. You resent the hell out of the snow, but it doesn’t care, it’s just a blind chemistry, an act of nature. It carries on regardless, unconcerned and unaware if it buries you or the whole world. Also, the snow builds up in other areas, places you can’t shovel, sometimes places you can’t even see. Maybe it’s on the roof. Maybe it’s on the mountain behind the house. Sometimes, there’s an avalanche that blows the house right off its foundation and takes you with it. A veritable Act of God, nothing can be done. The neighbors say it’s a shame and they can’t understand it; he was doing so well with his shoveling. - I don’t know how it went down for Anthony Bourdain or Kate Spade. It seems like they got hit by the avalanche, but it could’ve been the long, slow winter. Maybe they were keeping up with their shoveling. Maybe they weren’t. Sometimes, shoveling isn’t enough anyway. It’s hard to tell from the outside, but it’s important to understand what it’s like from the inside. I firmly believe that understanding and compassion have to be the base of effective action. It’s important to understand what depression is, how it feels, what it’s like to live with it, so you can help people both on an individual basis and a policy basis. I’m not putting heavy ****** out here to make your Friday morning suck. I know it feels gross to read it, and realistically it can be unpleasant to be around it, that’s why people pull away. I don’t have a message for people with depression like “keep shoveling”. It’s asinine. Of course you’re going to keep shoveling the best you can, until you physically can’t, because who wants to freeze to death inside their own house? We know what the stakes are. My message is to everyone else. Grab a ******ing shovel and help your neighbor. Slap a mini snow plow on the front of your truck and plow your neighborhood. Petition the city council to buy more salt trucks, so to speak. Depression is blind chemistry and physics, like snow. And like the weather, it is a mindless process, powerful and unpredictable with great potential for harm. But like climate change, that doesn’t mean we are helpless. If we want to stop losing so many people to this disease, it will require action at every level.

@TVFan17 yes absolutely I feel for all those impacted by his death. It's devastating for all concerned, especially that little girl he left behind. She's going to need so much love and support in the years to come. Suicide leaves everyone wondering why. @SunnyBeBe it is somehow a comfort being able to commiserate with others. My friends didn't watch him so they don't understand how a complete stranger could feel such sadness about a TV celebrity. Hell I don't understand it myself. It is what it is and that is a great song!

I cannot believe some of the mean, cruel and insensitive comments that I have been reading on other parts of the internet. A brilliant light has been extinguished, yet there are some that have absolutely not one ounce of empathy, sympathy or compassion for this man. It's incredibly unbelievable! I don't understand minds that work like that. I don't know why I am so completely heartbroken about his death. I find myself getting teary eyed and feeling so awful for his family and friends. I've been in a funk for quite some time and this may be selfish and so totally weird, but I think his death has helped me to realize that I need to pull myself up by my bootstraps and get on with it. Life waits for no one. Maybe it will help others to reach out and not feel so alone. There is going to be a big feast in the sky for all who join Anthony at his table.

This news is just beyond sad. I'm shell shocked. I loved Anthony Bourdain and his irreverent personality. He will be sorely missed!!! We just never know what someone is going through. You think money and fame will buy happiness. He's been more places and had more adventures than many will ever have in their lifetime. That shit just don't matter. RIP Anthony

Brynn's enunciation is awful! Didn't understand one word she sang on that song!

Underwhelming season...underwhelming winner. Meh, blech and ugh!

OMG I am so elated that Anthony won! I can't believe I am crying. All 3 were great, but he has been my favorite all season. I just love his personality. He would be so much fun to hang out with.

Perfect description for Laverne...robotic.

Man Erika is getting roasted on Twitter. Doesn't bode well for book sales. Yikes!!!

This revision of AI is not holding my interest. This show has seen better days. Simon, Paula and Randy just cannot be duplicated. Time to let sleeping dogs lie.

I binge watched this show on Netflix. Loved it! I wish the segments were longer and that the episodes were in chronological order. My husband was not a Jerry Seinfeld fan, but this show changed his mind.

So over the Blake/Adam shtick! Adam is a mean boy. It makes me not want to watch the show.

Definitely not made for prime time TV. It kinda/sorta presents itself as a fun comedy. I can imagine some kids watching this with their parents and they come upon this scene, then scramble to turn off the TV. Oh the questions! Ha! Glad I don't have to worry about that anymore.

I live in a town in Alabama close to where Stephen is from. Not that it really matters...just thought it was kinda cool that he is from around here. I would never admit to my friends that I even watch this show cause I'm almost 60. LOL! They can't believe I watch RHW, but I'm retired with too much time on my hands. This is such a shit show though. I can't believe that most of them are in their 30's and act the way they do. I think Kyle has a big drinking problem. My brain hurts listening to those twins talk...sooooo fast!!!

I turned it off as soon as I saw the husband performing oral sex on the young chick. Ugh! I'm not a prude, but there is a time and place. Dis too much!!!

I've been racking my brain trying to remember someone that reminded me of Kaitlin. What do ya think? LOL!

I'm not gushing either and was glad to see there are some that feel the same way. All the I'm so happy for her stuff...bleh. The name is ridiculously immature for his age. If he's still got his stuff, is he not still a male? If it was my father, I would be so devastated. The man you have known all your life is now mom. Heartbreaking! I feel for his ex wives too...yes even Kris. All those years together would feel like a lie. Bruce has money and let's face it, that makes what he's doing so much easier than the countless number of those who want to transgender and can't afford it. So I don't think what he's doing is so heroic or stoic or brave or attach any adjective you want to it. I think he's confused still. The pictures were photo shopped from here to kingdom come. I'd like to see what he looks like going to Walmart....no heavy make or hair extensions or fans blowing the hair around. Eh...what do I know...to each their own.
