She doesn't have to do anything special to exercise.  She could walk that hospital corridor 2x a day.

A have a hospital job & its sometimes 12hrs of almost non-stop walking!

[CrazyInAlabama]

Leneatha is a Pharmacy Tech.      The hospital may have only agreed to filming if no patients are shown, or other restrictions.    Medical privacy rules cancel out filming for reality TV shows.  Also, maybe other staffers didn't want to be filmed either.

pineapple pie

I have never heard of pineapple pie. Is it in a regular pie crust? I wish I lived closer to some of you. 😉

Pale blonde pixie here...thankfully I have a connection, otherwise I’d be about one week away from some looking like a rabid hedgehog.

I got a pixie one week before the lockdown. It's going to look a mess when it gets cut again! I love my white hair though and wouldn't think of dying it again.

Wow. Wait. What show am I watching? No fast food stops? No stops at a motel? No terrible pain? No ow my laig?

No fraaaahd rice! No "I just want to eat and go to bed"??

Well we know from the opening that she's going to argue with Dr. Now about how she "doesn't eat". That's on the bingo card yes?

But of course! Along with "Dr. Now isn't being fair" and "is that scale right?"

I now want to take tap dancing lessons. I sucked at it as a child. Maybe I'm better now?

I took tap dancing lessons as an adult. I also sucked at it as a child. As I should have suspected, I did not have a late blooming talent for it. 

[OoogleEyes]

Mmmmm....cheese.....

I only prefer the Mexican cokes and an occasional Grapico.

 

Occasional Mexican Coke, or a Root Beer or a Jarritos.

Does Leneatha work in a hospital with no patients or other employees? Why is no one there?! 

because Hippa.  Probably employees don't want to be seen.  Maybe TLC roped off a portion of Dr Now's hospital to film?   I have no idea, actually.

When I'm back at work, I am not allowing any of the reporters to use the phrase "In these uncertain times." My God, I hear that a thousand times a day!

Yes--hold that line!  I saw a funny poem online the other day, called "The First Lines of Emails I've Received While Quarantining."  The very FIRST first line is "In these uncertain times,"

[Callaphera]

This one's dull which makes it hard to snark on it.

I took my dogs to be groomed today. Crazy days when the dogs can be groomed, but not the humans!

I had a Zoom meeting with my Dept today but I just phoned in and told them that I couldn't get the video to work on my PC.  That was a lie, I just didn't feel like doing my hair.  It looks really bad.  But yes I had my dog groomer last week.  This is just wrong

I forgot about root beer--a barq's or Virgil's for me, please.

[mmecorday]

Dear TLC, I think I speak for everyone when I say I am almost certain no one is interested  in what Colt and his creepy mother are doing during their quarantine.

[Armchair Critic]

I like how the ad for '90 Day Quarantine' is trying to be serious and classy when you know those people are a hot mess.

[Hellga]

Wow, TLC already has a show about the current situation!  Self-quarantined!  I won't be watching, I am sick and tired of EVERYTHING being just about COVID all the time.

I love that the Long Island Medium is thanking first responders while stationed in front of what appears to be her huge walk-in closet.

Let them eat CAKE !!!! 

[ams1001]

She dressed up for Dr. Now!

[WonTon]

She looks bigger than ever.

[Scratches19]

Jeebus this is slow. Why is little Soozie Hoo thanking someone from the button if her heart. Oh. Commercial. Hard to tell.

I made a pineapple upside down cake recently.  Never tried--or heard of- a pineapple pie. 

[poeticlicensed]

9pm and she hasn't had her second appointment. This isnt looking good

[Brooklynista]

She daughters asthma is kicking up because that house is damn filthy! Clean the damn house!

[Snarkastikate]

She doesn't seem to be trying very hard, does she.  Makes me sad......

[Pepper Mostly]

See, she is the only one at her work! 

Oh, she cops to not losing weight. Dun dun dun!

Dr. Now's hair looks a bit ruffled

Maybe he was filmed right after Megan's mom left?

[Chicklet]

TWo pieces of chicken?? She ate the whole flock.

[Armchair Critic]

I am actually rooting for her, I hope she gets her act together

[WonTon]

She isn't getting surgery.

Okay but you gotta admit that Danielle with a mask on was an improvement. 

Coltee is going to be rocked and soothed on his mom's bosom.

I use a graham cracker crust. It’s delicious and very rich but not too sweet. High calorie though!

Now you got me thinking Dr. Now just made out with someone.

[poeticlicensed]

Honey you arent gonna starve

[Guest]

Me right now

 

[umgoblue]

Visions of Beaker comes to mind during this session with Dr. Now:

[Pepper Mostly]

Uh oh, here it is "I still have to eat! I have to stay alive!"

I love pineapple upside down cake!  I think it's been years since I've had it.

I wore my pajamas to a Zoom meeting today!  At least I did brush my hair. Nobody even cared. (they were nice looking pjs)

I noticed today that week 1 we all had our cameras on. Week 5 we are talking to black screens and still pictures.

Unfortunately, doesn't seem like she will 'get' it unless she has some really bad health event... and even then it's not a given.

My uncle had diabetes for years, both his parents died from consequences of diabetes, and still he refused to follow the diet.  Just got his leg amputated yesterday.  And I honestly don't know if he will eat better from now on...

Oh thanks. There's a mental picture that will never be erased from my mind

[WonTon]

I wanted to like her. But nope.

[MsVixen]

Does a Pharmacy Tech put the medication into bottles for the customer?

[Callaphera]

This one is so dull that we're getting long speeches from Dr. Now. I'm about to go hit up the chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing I made last night (at 2 am, judge all you want, I'm living my best quarantined life over here) in memory of all the past trainwrecks that entertained me. 

I'm missing the premiere of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Dorit's magically changing accent for this?

My mother made the best flaky crusts;   mine, unfortunately, look like a frankencrust.  I guess graham cracker is easier, but I do prefer the flaky crusts instead.  My daughter inherited my mother's pie making ability.
