Wife Swap/Trading Spouses

I had to check to see what "Rastafarian" was. It sounds like it could have been really hard to deal with. I don't think that I could handle it very well. Has your friend gotten back yet? Would she ever do it again?

Katrina was only gone for about 8 actual days. She said she'd never do it again - but her personality is always seeking attention. She doesn't get paid until the show airs and has already spent the money (on credit cards) for a family vacation.

Drum Roll ..... Katrina's Wife Swap show airs on Halloween - Friday, October 31st. She says she hasn't seen a preview. I'm trying to talk her into a viewing party, but she says her hubby won't go for it. So, put that on your calendar and see the Vice President's secretary that I fill-in for sometimes.

How exciting!

I've seen a few of the Wife Swap shows lately. Wow! I don't think that I could do it! They put absolutely opposite people to swap with. One woman fed her family healthy food and the swap mother fed them candy and junk. I thought that the Dad's did a good job of keeping their cool but I'm sure that everyone was glad to go back home. I'll keep an eye open for your friends show.

Diana, that's co-worker - not necessarily friend.

I had lunch with Katrina yesterday and she says they have edited her show and left out all the good stuff where the guy was cursing at her and she was about to leave. She just sent me this picture of the guy she was. Remember October 31st!

I have it on my calendar now, but would you mind terribly if you remind me here again...LOL. You know how I am...LOLOL

Oh my goodness, I saw that show just last night!
I was a little disappointed, thinking I had missed it, but then when I saw your description of the rasta family and "jah" lol...

I really did feel sorry for Katrina when it was time to say goodbye to the children. I missed the big blow up that led to her leaving the house (I must have changed the channel at a commercial).
I could see he did feel badly when she started to tear up talking about not being able to properly say goodbye to the kids she'd fallen in love with over the past 2 weeks.

I could understand why he was feeling defensive. She was resentful towards him for having to deal with the children most of the time while "he went out and played too late", and it seemed she picked at everything about their life style so I think she came at him too hard and broke him down a little. And he was such an easy going guy!

Other than that, I mostly felt sorry for Katrinas daughters! Troy came across as a real ass. I think the girls really liked the mom they got I know I did, she was pretty cool

CRAP CRAP CRAP!! I missed it...I forgot totally all about it and I have it on my calendar and a note stuck to my monitor. I wanted to watch this one so bad and for no other reason than that Sandy knew her. Now I'm going to have to do as Diana and try and find it online somewhere.

[DianaB]

I can't find it online anywhere but it will probably be played as a rerun one of these days. I'll have to keep an eye open for it.

I was out trick or treating. I forgot to DVR it! Diana, if you find it anywhere, please let me know.

Darn!!!
