I want to like her but she'll probably fold and do something rotten. <br />Sidenote: I read the book, Life After Life, by Kate Atkinson this weekend. It is long, over 500 pages, historical fiction and quite good! Reicarnation is the foundation of the plot. I couldn't wait to get to the end and managed to feed my family andcdo some laundry between chapters. <br />Andrea B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03917836206949412580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-9397763566282483652014-02-18T09:43:58.350-06:002014-02-18T09:43:58.350-06:00I remember that SO well.

But I remember that skating pairs had all the compulsories, all the required moves, etc - and ice dancing was just this fluid hard-to-judge-subjective thing. I didn't watch last night because Scott went to bed, and our only tv with channels is in there. so I missed jimmy fallon too [SO SAD]. But there's still some Olympics left this week so I'll catch up!!stephseefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651078191088887064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-66924344221048178622014-02-18T09:21:51.279-06:002014-02-18T09:21:51.279-06:00Loved Torville and Dean.

I remember turning it off because it wasn't REAL skating. And now it gets all the press. :) <br /><br />I loved this episode. Didn't watch it til this morning. So, so special. And I'm already sad that we're done next week. I am relieved - and I hope that we can stay relieved! - that nothing as dramatic as last season has happened. I'm heartened by aunt Rosamund and granny and their generous love for Edith. That's pretty special. Anna and bates are making me nervous - bates is making me nervous. Molesley was the most tolerable he's ever been this week.. And mrs patmore made me cry when she came out and talked to daisy with the line about 'if you were my real daughter' or whatever. So very special....stephseefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651078191088887064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-3129923109463272862014-02-17T21:43:58.490-06:002014-02-17T21:43:58.490-06:00I will be praying for you and your hubby too Susan...I will be praying for you and your hubby too Susan.

Sorry but I think Mary is a brat, the way she abruptly ended her meal with lord Gilliam was rude. He is my favorite for her though. And wondering if Edith overdid it working at fair and may run into complications. The Mosley story is sweet. What a smile he has!

I've wanted to, but sometimes it's nice just not talking.<br /><br />I watched all the Downton's episodes over Christmas when my son came to visit. He'd acquired the British tapings somehow, and we watched a marathon up to the episode this week. I am really looking forward to next Sunday night's episode. Donna, I am going to agree with you on Bates. I really like him, though.Country Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14432335393660130255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-28927170026939611162014-02-17T14:06:35.425-06:002014-02-17T14:06:35.425-06:00Thanks !!Thanks !!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08274481412344071315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-53022976972747042512014-02-17T14:06:09.130-06:002014-02-17T14:06:09.130-06:00Puppy love!!!
