No Soap Operas

As I will now be home for most of the day on most days, I have been working on setting ground rules for myself and as Liz suggested, small daily goals.

The first ground rule that I've set for myself is NO soap operas! I have been a fan of various soaps over the years, including The Young and the Restless, Guiding Light, Sunset Beach (no longer on air), All My Children, and General Hospital. I will not succumb to the lure of returning to their attractive clutches!
The one vice that I am allowing myself is The Price is Right. Although Drew Carey is no Bob Barker, I figure I will allow myself this indulgence while running on our treadmill, something I have been neglecting to do for several months.

Ohhhh... this is truly a new era! I remember when we used to watch one of those soaps (Days of Our Lives??) in our break between high school and class at St. Thomas with Don Ringnalda (it's a little scary that I can remember his name, but not the name of the soap!).

And, I didn't mean to sound callous... I am so sorry you are going through tough times. Looks like you have a good sense of humor about it and are trying to make the best of the situation. -jessie k. n.
