The reruns might also have something to do with the writer's strike. I hope they come to an agreement soon. I miss watching Heroes. :(

You're right Angie, the writers strike has a lot to do with it. I had read somewhere that they had already taped the 2nd part to DH, but were just waiting to show it because it is such a dramatic topic.

Have you heard any news about the strike? Have there been any compromises or anything at all to suggest that they might reach an agreement soon? :confused:

No I haven't. There was an article in the paper about the writers stike, but it had nothing to do with when it would be over, talks, nothing. I hate to say this, but it does give me more time to be on the computer and do get other things done. I must watch too much TV and didn't realize it.

lol, it adds up when you think about it. An hour show this day, another the next day...and so on. And if you miss an episode, you're behind! I think they plan it that way on purpose. lol

You're right. Sometimes I get too wrapped up in the shows. Makes me feel guilty too, so much life to live and experience and I'm sitting in front of a picture box...lol

Well, I feel the same way about the internet sometimes. We all have our guilty pleasures. :)

I love my guilty pleasures, TV being one of them. The lack of shows is because they've run out of episodes due to the writer's strike. I tape lots of old Law and Order type stuff and just watch it. Letterman is paying his writers more money on his own, so he will begin with new shows tonight.

I got really nice Christmas gifts. I got a lovely silver and abalone bracelet, an onyx and silver necklace and earring set and my daughter snuck in a beautiful watch and matching silver bracelet set. (SIL didn't know about it b3ecause they're trying to budget).

I really enjoyed this Christmas, buying the kid's gifts, special boots for my SIL, and a
handmade silver necklace with a lion on it that stands for courage. That was for my daughter because I think thst she has shown so much courage in the face of her MS.
I didn't know if she would like it, but she loved what it stands for and because I bought it for her. She said she'll wear it when she needs to be strong. I also bought her a pocketbook and a dress.

I was a good girl this year!

You were a good girl weren't you???? I really like the idea you had about the necklace, lion and courage. What great symbolism. I think we all were good girls this year.

It sounds like you got very lovely gifts, Judy! I, too, like the idea behind the necklace. You're a very wonderful mother!!!

Judy - it sounds like you had such a wonderful Christmas. I'm really happy for you. The necklace with it's meaning is very heartwarming. Very touching.

my hubby got me my birth certificate charm with our sons name, lbs, and birth date on it, i love it.

What a sweet idea! You must have a wonderful husband!!!

We got are ups and downs, it was hard adjusting to a new baby in the house, but i'll keep him, He got me a beautiful charm bracelett when our son was born, and every holiday/Birthday he gets me a charm, i have two more to go and it will be done. so far i have a Birth certificate one, a Yorkie, a MOM, a baby boy, i have two more to go, i think i'll get the wedding bells are beautiful, and the baby shoes or the baby footprint one is nice... i tell you those little charms are expensive :eek: i always wanted a charm bracelett and i finally got one can't wait to wear it.

I love charm bracelets but like you said they're expensive to complete. I love the charms that you've put on there. They really reflect your life.
