You Guessed It! The FOURTH Installment...

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH BOY!

I am wavering a little, but I will stay true to my mission! Some of these will be quite relevant...have any of you enjoyed any of the links thus far?

16. Heating pad. I am almost 35. I am always cold, and something always hurts, seriously. The heating pad makes me HAPPY! Not sure it makes my hubby happy, as I always look like I am hooked up to something, just like robots and weather balloons are. And if he gets near me, he starts to heat up to the point of sweating (not because he finds my flannel PJ's and the smell of Mentholatum, that is slathered under my nose, irresistible, it's that blasted heating pad).

17. Turkey in a bag. Thanksgiving is my favorite meal, hands down. The turkey, of course, is the most crucial part of the meal. Every year you see on tons of morning shows, food channel specials, magazines, and even local TV programs with apparently THE PERFECT way to make and bake a turkey. All this fuss with basting, turning, baking racks, herb infusers, fancy stuffings, marinades, bacon, chickens and ducks stuffed inside…JUST STICK THE TURKEY IN A BAG AND FUGGEDABOUDIT! Oh my! A stick of butter rubbed all over the turkey and some simple stuffing is all you need to add before sticking it in a bag and then the oven to LEAVE ALONE for four hours! If your oven doesn’t cook evenly, like mine, you should turn it, but, I tell ya, you get browned skin and the best turkey you have ever had! So juicy and tender, the BEST!

18. Internet TV. We no longer have TV, except for PBS that comes in fairly well with some rabbit ears. My hubby and I LOVE being able to load up on our favorite shows on the weekends, or when we have time. No commercials, we can watch it on our own time, perfect! Netflix is great too, as they have added MANY shows and movies that the family can enjoy, anytime we want. TV when WE want it, HOW we want it…sweet…

19. Progesterone cream. I am not a doc (well, I am not a LICENSED one, and I didn't attend school, but...), and of COURSE I must stress that before you decide to play around with your hormones (even though your hormones will play around with you, without asking anyone) that you first consult a doctor, but without my natural paraben-free progesterone cream I would be, well, go check out my PMS post…I would be her. I read the book (yeah, I read) What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Pre-Menopause and it changed my life. Seriously.

20. Noises Off. This has to be one of THE funniest movies of all time. It has a great cast like John Ritter and Christopher Reeve, Carol Burnett, Marilu Henner, and Nicolette Sheirdon, just to name a few. It is about a crazy cast of Broadway actors trying to pull a play together, with the "help" of their stressed out director, the night before they open. So, if you don’t mind a few swear words here and there, and Nicolette running around in her lingerie for most of the movie, you will LOVE it!!

OK after this one people, there is one more...can you handle it?

What site do you use for Internet TV? I have gone to several sites & most of the downloads do not agree with my browser, i.e., my computer has crashed while trying to view programs. I use Firefox as my browser... Thanks!

We use Netflix for past seasons of shows and movies, downloading is fairly smooth, but not on FF like you said, so, we use Internet Explorer ONLY for Netflix b/c we know it's a safe site, that has worked for us. As for current shows, we go to the network's site and watch them from there. I would say 97% of the time everything works great, and we watch shows from every major channel (NBC seems the worst, ABC the best). Have you checked out Hulu? It's another site you may want to check out...good luck! Thanks for stopping by! :)
