Hi all. wherever you are. I still have a cold, and it's snowed lightly and is so cold out, I am in for the day. That's just not me but it's not worth going out. Tomorrow the weather may be worse so I may regret this.

Doglover, thanks for the clarification. I hope Castle stays on somehow. Although I do watch other stuff if something better is against it. Wish they wouldn't do that. Half the time, absolutely nothing is on at all.

I got 2 mail coupons for Boscov's. maybe long-time customers get different ones. One today was free ship but only after 49.00. Can't remember the other but it always works out to the same amount off, either the free ship or the percent off. They are very slow to ship, took them a week just to get the bag started in the mailing process.

Almost ordered the HSN Iman bag, got caught up even though I know better. TG I cancelled. I know it's not my type bag, I remember the poor reviews, and DH will definitely not like seeing a big box arrive from HSN. He saw some of the presentation since it was on all day.

Okay, just Doglover and myself again?

Lot's of new on TV tonight.

[doglover3]

Desi, I almost got that same bag when they had it as a TS a while ago but I read reviews first and they weren't good. I never get a bag I can't use as a shoulder bag but love all the compartments so is why I was tempted till I read the reviews.

[Desi]

Doglover, that Iman bag had a detachable adjustable shoulder strap. I think it might be very uncomfortable using it though, very narrow (though that's the style now).

Finally got the Boscov's order. Geez, purse wasn't inside a plastic bag, no stuffing, just thrown in a plastic mailing bag that was partly open (and it's pouring here)! Is that typical shipping for them?

I think Nathan Fillion is looking a bit haggard this season. Just speculating but maybe he is tired or sick, who knows. If not, he'd be crazy to leave the show IMO. It's better than most, and the new ones coming out look awful as usual. I watched NCIS LA last night. Wish they weren't against each other, I watch which ever sounds best in the description.

Sorry you are still sick, UGH.

Okay guys, Doglover and I both have colds and feel lousy. How about some of you dropping in and spreading some joy, lol?

[doglover3]

okay, than it was the one they had as a TS a little while ago and is the one that didn't get great reviews. Go and read the reviews on it.

I thought the same, may be tired and now read that George Eads( Nick Stoke) on CSI isn't going to be back, said he wants to quit so, who knows why.

I too don't see why anyone would want to quit a hit show when they have nothing else lined up especially if they like GE have been in the show from the beginning. Who in their right mind does things like this unless ill or something. It is like the girl that wanted out of Criminal Minds but didn't want to be killed off in case she wants to come back at some other time. I think some characters make the show. I did like the doctor on Bones that they killed off.

[Desi]

Doglover, yep, they were reviews for the previous Iman bag and they pulled them before the new one was shown. I'd already read them!

Gotta say, the quality of some of the ones I've seen in TJs and Marshall's doesn't look much better. Have a feeling a lot of them have cardboard inside too.

Sooner or later we'll find out what's up with Castle.

Sweets from Bones was just a kid on Freaks and Geeks, remember him? I liked his character too, again, he is on to other ventures.

Colds are so weird. I definitely caught mine from CB, but he didn't have a cough, think his nose might have been a little worse. He had his final week of presentation at school, said he didn't sleep at all and hopes the professors could tell he was sick.

[Desi]

The Kind bar rep. sounds like Deana from David's cookies on HSN. Talking to myself, probably no longer lucid.

[doglover3]

Desi, guess we will have to wait and see either at the end of this season or if there will be a next season for Castle. I hope so, I like the show.

yep, reviews were bad so probably took them off till after the TS was finished for that day. I love organization in a bag and is why I have so many Travelon bags but also love my Gal bags I got at BonTon, lot of pockets which I like and not a heavy bag either. I only get shoulder bags. Oh boy yes, have seen a lot of really cheap bags when looking. That is something I prefer to look at myself other than the Travelons I got here and several years ago I got a cute color block bag that is sort of dressy yet for anytime, nice leather.

I was interested in the Kind bars, ones with the reduced sugar but so many said you can get them a lot cheaper at local stores.

colds seem to be different for everyone. I am usually the only one here that gets a cough with a cold or a sore throat. They just get stuffed up and sneeze. I get the full course, cough, sneeze, stuffed up, congestion in the head and chest, you name it I get it. They also can shake a cold in 4 to 6 days, not me, really hang on to one.

Bitter cold and nights are getting a lot colder but no snow that is measurable TG.

[highmaintenancejan]

Yes, buy a Kind bar in the pharmacy area of Walmart first....you can buy them cheaper. Not that great!! Not much there.

[Desi]

Doglover, the reviews were there a long time, but they were definitely gone before the new TSV.

I like to check out bags too when possible. The one I am getting isn't in any stores here any longer.

Maybe we get colds different from guys. Every day I wake up hoping I'm all better. Hasn't happened yet.

I have ordered the Kind bars because they sometimes have unique flavors. However, BB&B, the supermarkets, drugstores, pretty much everywhere else has them for less. They aren't bad, but I wouldn't suggest them for you. The nuts are large pieces and they bars are chewy, not a good idea with weak teeth. I'm sure the men would eat them all quickly. Like Jan said, they are really tiny. They aren't enough for a filling snack and definitely not a meal replacement. They are very tasty and low in sugar.

Hope Castle will return.

Jan, how is everything with you? I'm sure you are looking forward to Christmas with Ayden.
