Favorite Things: Old TV Shows

 


Now, television isn't something I am able to indulge in very often.  I have one TV series that I watch with absolute strictness, and that is Curse of Oak Island.  Otherwise, I watch The Mandalorian when I can and occasionally indulge in the classics.  But, boy, do I love those classics! 

My love has been renewed thanks to Disney's Wandavision, which, I think, they "spoofed" the old TV shows quite well without being rude about it.  I'd be happy if they stayed in the Mary Tyler Moore or Dick van Dyke Show style.  It's just so adorable and homey!  It brought me back to my old favorites such as:

The Donna Reed Show

Leave it to Beaver

Father Knows Best

Ozzie and Harriet

The Honeymooners

I Love Lucy

The Dick van Dyke Show

I Dream of Jeannie

The Mary Tyler Moore Show

And the game show What's My Line

I'm sure there's more.

What are your favorite old time TV shows?

She's Here!

Our daughter was born at 7:17 pm, May 27th after only 2 1/2 hours of labor and 10 minutes of pushing! She weighed in at 6lbs 5 ounces and measured at 19 inches long....another little peanut! It was all-natural, baby! No induction, no pitocin, no pain relievers, no episiotomy! All prayers have been answered by the Lord except for her nursing ability. She's not a very good nurser, though she was a champ just after she was born. She's getting better, though and I continue in prayer that she improves. I pray that when my milk comes in, she'll be a great nurser. I'm also in prayer about her jaundice. Right now, it's not bad at all, but I learned with Bubby how quickly that can change, especially with her not being a good nurser. The picture above was taken yesterday. That's me and my son and daughter. Poor hubby's not in the picture because he wasn't at the hospital at that time. He was there earlier, but I sent him home to get some rest and some

I'm sorry, but I just have to gripe...

What is it with this trend of calling women "Miss" and their first name? I really dislike being called "Miss Kate." First of all, I am NOT a "Miss" and secondly, Kate is my familiar nickname. I am very proudly Mrs. Scott. Calling me Mrs. Scott does not make me feel old or detached. On the other hand, "Miss Kate" makes me sound like a child and lowered in societal and respectable standards rather than the married mother that I am. I don't want to be called Miss Kate, nor do I want my children to address adult women in that manner. Which brings up another point; men don't receive that kind of watered down respect. They get addressed properly as Mr. Smith, not Mr. John. Unfortunately, the three greatest offenders are a close friend, my sister-in-law, and my church. My close friend, I allow her daughter to call me Kate. We've known each other for so long and she's growing into a young lady, so I have no problem with the fam
