    Tonight I watched The 100, Revolution, NCIS, and NCIS LA all while binding a quilt (tv was good so I was going slow)

    ReplyDelete
  61. I watch very few tv shows. 3 to be exact. True Blood and Game of Thrones on HBO and Vikings on the History channel by favorite is currently Vikings. It changes between the 3 shows weekly. It depends on which one is having the most adventure and excitement. As I live vicariously through the actors on tv.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I forgot to say I remember being a child and my school always had a may day festival and we danced the may pole. What fun looking back. None of my children's schools have ever done the may pole dance that I know of.

  63. Happy Birthday to you! And I'm ashamed to say I have a LOT of favorite TV shows. I'm taking a little shame away though by watching them while on the treadmill lately. My all time favorite is Big Bang Theory, but my newest favorite is Growing Up Fisher because it's based on a true story.

    ReplyDelete
