Daytime television is a great way to motivate you to do anything else but watch daytime television. Yikes! It’s like the TV wants you to not watch TV. It is making my goal to stay put and be sick next to impossible. I think I will practice the lost art of writing  Christmas cards. I LOVE getting them and I have noticed over the years that less and less people are sending them. PEOPLE! SEND THEM! For the record…e-cards are not the same. Just saying.
