beat the blahs |
Winter
can be so dreary so we need to cocoon a little on those frosty nights to
make it through to spring...One option is to party hearty - there
are a few holidays to cheer things up. After Christmas or whatever happens
best for you during December, comes Chinese
New Year and Mardi
Gras then Valentine's
Day.
So in addition to a lot of reading (see my authors site) I watch TV. This season for football and the NFL. My all time fave NYPD Blue is of course long gone. I am glad East New York is here. I am a fan of NCIS-LA (not NCIS) and enjoyed the later spin-off - NCIS-New Orleans (CSI, CSI NY and CSI Miami are long gone). I also enjoyed Hawaii 5.0 and continue to watch Blue Bloods Home Town and Texas Flip n Move - both remind me of growing up in the South. I also watch Boise Boys, Worst to First, Lottery Dream House, Restored, Restoring Galveston and Flea Market Flip Escape to the Country gives me satisfaction as an armchair traveler. The show I miss the most was on CNN - Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown. My favourite comedy is Bob Hearts Abishola. The Repair Shop has Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year and Landscape Artist of the Year I love to watch figure skating in season - the Grand Prix Figure Skating circuit and the others leading up to Worlds and every four years, the Olympics. Don't forget reality - yes, I watch The Bachelor and Bachelorette and lately Bachelor in Paradise. For the past few seasons I've become addicted to Talent Shows - So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with the Stars (no longer as it has moved to the Disney channel) as well as The Voice, and Master Chef (also Master Chef Canada). Not least - there's the countdown to the many award shows including the Oscars |
