And I did just that! Stayed home, nice n’ cosy!
I hope you’ve had a good start to this brand-new week. I got Christmas mostly taken down over the weekend. There’s still a few bits n’ bobs to store away, but Christmas 2025 is definitely over. Or is it???
I belong to several recipes and crafting groups online, and the moderator of one of these groups had posted pics of her taking down her Christmas stuff on December 26th. Apparently, she’d had it up since right after Halloween and for her, it was time to come down. And that’s when all hell broke loose in the comment section. I couldn’t believe it.
People were irate. They told her she was wrong to be doing that, it was only the 2nd day of Christmas, she didn’t know the meaning of Christmas and how could she do this to Jesus, yadda, yadda, yadda. Seriously, the woman got reamed and all I could think was, who cares? Who cares when this woman takes her Christmas stuff down? And I didn’t see one comment in defense of the woman, like, it’s her stuff she can do what she wants, or not everyone shares the same traditions, or maybe she isn’t Christian. Nope, people were just being jerks and all because a woman showed pictures of herself taking down her Christmas stuff. – Just ridiculous.
Today, I feel like I spent the whole day reading and snuggling my pup. He’s been a little out of sorts lately so he’s needing some extra attention and that’s okay by me. Time is never wasted when you have a furry luv in your lap.
I did find something I thought I would share just in case nobody knew this like I didn’t know. Ever since the death of Rob Reiner – so incredibly sad and still unbelievable to me – I’ve been watching clips of All In The Family just for nostalgia’s sake and still trying to really believe that “Meathead” is no longer with us. Well, I checked to see if All In The Family was streaming anywhere, it’s not. So, I got on YouTube because they usually have full seasons of everything, but nope, they didn’t have it either. What they did have though were the original pilot shows for what became All In The Family.
There were 3 pilots total. The first pilot in 1968 was called, Justice For All. The second pilot in 1969 was called, Those Were The Days, and the third pilot, which is the one most of us know, was called, All In The Family, and it aired in 1971.
After watching these videos, I am so happy that we finally got All In The Family. Check them out and let me know what you think. – 1968, 1969, 1971
Man, I couldn’t imagine the 1968 or 69 versions at all. Could you?
Well, we got our first Monday of the new year in the books. Did everyone survive? What’s on tap for Tuesday? I’m heading to Goodwill, the women’s shelter, and Half Priced Books to drop off a bunch of gently used items. Then, I’m off to the spine doctor – sounds freaky – to set up a physical therapy schedule. I’m so happy this is finally happening. Arthritis is no joke! So, a busy day of errands for me in our spring like winter weather. No snow but also no complaints because at least it’s not temps in the 90s. Lol. Forever a summer hater am I.
Have a great Tuesday everyone and let me know what happening down in the comments.
Good night.
