  1. That sounds really good but I am having hard time getting it to come up on a search on HBO so will write a note for reminder on the day.
  2. I’ve had to move so many times in last 16 years and gave so many books away but came across my copy of The Profit in my jumble of boxes in the office. Don’t even ask how I started watching those again and even fathers wear very casual clothes. One I saw a couple weeks ago groom and his party all had baseball hats on backwards.
  3. Probably OT but I’m still in shock from this week. . I took my best friend ( whose husband doesn’t drive) to get the surgery for droopy eyelids. He got the one on lids themselves that most are familiar with ,and then one where the surgeon cut across eyebrows and the bone is shaved leaving scar in the eyebrows. The second one very much sounds like cosmetic but his insurance paid. Anyway when we go get him on surgery unit I swear my heart stopped. He looked like a clown. Perfect half circle stitched eyebrows up high. I’d not heard of this eyebrow lift to help vision but he was saying previously that women don’t get it because of scaring. On research they DON’T get it because women have less eyebrows and hair. They were cross stitch and he’ll have those removed in a week. I hope cream that helps scaring works. I just couldn’t accept Michael’s attire. Sorry. . I notice on the after-show he’s cut his hair. Even if she wants him to tone it down I don’t see him willing to do it. And maybe he shouldn’t have to. Let’s see who was the guy who wore a odd nightshirt or gown in bed every night?
  4. It made me laugh hard when Matt is telling Amy that they would let the kids come stay in rental free. Are you high?
  5. It’s ok with me as is compared to the previous picture of what I assume is their house. Geez just random crap on shelves that don’t even make sense. Even thrift stores has some continuity on their shelves.
  6. I think she’s is (or was ) too uptight for the shenanigans they expect of contestants.
  7. This late response but although I’ve had my share of colonoscopies I was nervous to have endo and colonoscopy couple months ago so asked GI office if I could take 1/2 tab of a low dose Xanax I have when leaving home. It helped for couple hours but they ran so late and was like a assembly line in there. The medication they give always wears off almost immediately never said anything amusing on way home. One of the drugs like propofol at least makes you forget any discomfort.
  8. Do you think Jon Cryer was cancelled to have Chris Christie on?
  9. I really like Jack Whitehall, catch him on a British talk show ,standup and series Travels With My Father.
  10. I haven’t watched on my DVR yet but my love for Alan runs deep. May I join you at that dinner? So moved by Not My Father’s Son. I would turn into PBS just to see him introduce the program. Think I went OT there.
  11. I had a British friend who used to say who looks at the mantle when you’re poking the fire. I had not thought of that or her in decades.
  12. Yes @stewedsquash now I’m recalling seeing him telecasting from his home supposedly away from the rest of his family. Since I don’t watch I wonder if he counts that as his first bout. I’m lucky ( rarely) but my hearing aide company gives free batteries. One aide with most hearing loss uses slightly more power and it’s first to go but within little while the other side goes . When I got mine in 2018 I went to hearing center and guy that we used since my HOH son was little and I trusted him explicitly. A friend who needed them at the same time was going to go to Costco but I felt I wouldn’t get the same level of customer service. He actually wound up because of having Kaiser had to pay a fraction of what I did or was reimbursed almost totally, and went to private company When I questioned the guy I knew for years about batteries he said most people who start out with rechargeable after a year do change to regular batteries. I didn’t ask why but the friend who got aides same time I did switch after a year. I don’t know the reason. When he watches tv or listens to potcasts he uses a headset that’s linked so has a note by his door to put hearing aides in. The reason I got mine after my loss that came after bronchitis and pneumonia and earache ( the antibiotic turns out to cause loss + plus I’m old) was I wanted to hear /distinguish what my young grandchildren were saying to me. Recently I was hearing a beep every 3 minutes and could not tell where it was coming from. My freezer door had been left open overnight so I kept going in there. I’d take my aides out and put them back in going in every room in my small condo it sounded like it was in same room I was in, and driving me crazy. Finally my daughter-in-law came over because obviously my sons loss would result in same as my inability tone wise. She found a little beeper I’d had to find my keys that I’d lost receiver to it was on table next to me under a paper. She’s already won best daughter-in-law many times before for grander things. I had a terrible productive wet cough from Dec 31 until Jan 14. My ribs hurt so bad from constant coughing ,yet had no temperature or sore throat, total lack of sleep and nausea. . My daughter in law who went to urgent care right before I got sick had non proactive ,just dry cough had temperature and sore throat with headache and swollen glands They gave her Covid test RSV flu A and B . Said she had bad cold was given inhaler and non narcotic cough RX The narcotic RX syrup given to me I was so cautious taking it the first night maybe a 1/4 teaspoon when directions were 1-2 teaspoons. Well because of no sleep and very little food I was holding on to walls going down hall to bed. Can’t tolerate medication like I used to.
  13. Was it the one with Dr Lee on long Covid issues? I went to YouTube typed in Chris Cuomo News Nation and the date of Jan 9. so not sure if that’s the one you want. The Chris Cuomo Project is available there too. Sorry I suck at linking
  14. Thanks @Shrek it was confusing when a poster said they were glad to see she was a real person, and I can confuse clowns in this circus
  15. I could have sworn he came out and stayed with her or in hotel and she was not willing to move with him because she has kids so that’s why he plans moving to where she is. Was I dreaming that?
  16. No mention if momma Clayton cooks for the family or cheeseburgers she has a hankering for. If she’s eating daughter-in-law food then she should help clean up. I cooked ,hubby cleaned up.
  17. I’ve watched it twice since the mention and he’s really in a tangent. He’s taking several drugs not approved. The rants are about the Chinese labs creating variant that kills mice 100% of the time when infected. I’m with him WHY?
  18. I lived in the central coast 98-2001 and 2004-2013 and there are many things I miss but happy to be where my son wife and grandkids are in my hometown in the Bay Area. If I had the money and family with me I’d love to live Mendocino. Used to visit and stay in Fort Bragg too!
  19. I order a lot from Amazon including subscriptions for a protein drink not available in stores and dog food. I’ve been really sick so on the 8th after going back and forth about using Amazon fresh or a grocery store ordered cough medicine Pedilyte jello etc. from my regular Amazon account. I’m woken via text at 7:am saying my card had been declined. All fricken day yesterday I went between my bank and Amazon which kept saying I need to update payment. I was assured by the bank that there was no block. Cut to end of day I get notice 2 things I ordered late yesterday ( doggie pee pads and rug shampoo) had been charged on a card I don’t want to use because although 0 % interest the balance is high. They just used it because other one had not been going through. I wound up getting connected to fraud at my bank and it was quite informative. 1) she said Amazon did the block at 10 pm on my first order on 8th and I was unaware because I was in bed attempting to get sleep .2) She looked and told me how many vendors kept my card number and that’s how people steal your information. The card I use most had been kept 27 times which she deleted or inactivated She said when ordering online it will say in fine print down bottom about keeping card number and even when you’re calling an order can happen. . . One was Go Fund Me which was only one I allowed to keep my number others like a T-shirt company,Shopify and many I never did. She told me that once a decline / block it triggers the bank to then be on alert and decline. Every time I check on status of order in red says I need to update payment information which I’ve done 14 times as well as bank telling me twice there’s no block on it. So here I am without Pedilyte , jello and ginger cookies amongst other necessities. I’m not up to talking to a call center in India because I’m hard of hearing and don’t understand half of their “ customer service” which involves just telling me anything and repeating thank you Miss Clowns for that information a dozen times When I have the energy I’ll call Amazon again and tell them I’ve stopped my subscriptions until they give me an explanation. Life isn’t done testing this old lady because my freezer door was left open the night before to accompany my cough and Amazon frustration. End of my moan. Oh goody pee pads arrived.
  20. The other day I read the Amazon registry (s) and if legit were very odd. Lots of things that 2 people in their 70s must own but perhaps they are furnishing a third home where you need a portable walk-in sauna and multiple coffee machines. Lots gifts has been purchased.
  21. I’ve always been strong for my age but those jars were giving me hard time so I have one of these…it’s mounted under cabinet and it doesn’t show. Works really well.
  22. I do the same thing Mabinogia with combined deliveries then poor delivery folks making several trips. There’s many drivers out there that aren’t Amazon employees too and more likely to leave them right at my door front and center. There’s a lot of package thieves as well a car break ends in my general area so I have added instructions to hide packages from vision of sidewalk in my condo community. A toy figure that one grandson wanted got double ordered ( I cancelled one on their recommendation when it was delayed 10 days) and both came at same time today. One came in an envelope and was smashed and the other in perfect size box. I have to chuckle because the grandsons think these are going to increase in value so they leave them in the box. Amazon has always rung my doorbell .I have new Ring and I get notices and an early overnight delivery I didn’t hear because I sleep with ear pods in and I’m hard of hearing ,but my doggie barked so he heard. Everyone is working so hard. My gripe is huge boxes with a non breakable small item then the breakables in an envelope.
  23. I’ve been watching and loving British shows for. years. Binge watch so many. Some good New Zealand ones too . I also just watched Jim Gaffigan’s special on Netflix and found it very funny. I’ve seen in him person and now he’s a little edger. Since I saw Nate Bargatze on SNL watched his special too, previously never heard of him. I’d love to see Sebastian Maniscalco in person but tickets were close to $400 near me.
  24. Typo sorry I typed JW and could have sworn she said because they don’t believe in sex before marriage . Which I thought at the time didn’t make sense because she was married before. Maybe what little gray matter I have left isn’t picking up important crap on reality shows . Am I wrong about that they met on a JW dating site? edited to add the mention of ex JW dating site. Things must be difficult in that department to choose someone so far away. It’s kinda of a joke that many on dating sites say they have a half hour drive limit.
  25. Thought I was the only one ,never cared for him.
