• Presidents Day 2024

  When I worked in Dialysis back in 2022 I didn’t really get a family vacation that year. When I worked at DaVita I was able to get a week off in September. That was before my surgery to take out the hardware in my arm though a lot changed. Then I got on at Fresenius…

• Valentines Day Story #2

  One year not very long after Grandpa Freddy died a new movie came out. According to the date this movie came out nearly 6 years after his death. I still remember the Hallmark Movie being on a CBS Special Presentation. Dad and I initially watched it together that night. Mom I think fell asleep before…

• Jane Austen & Hallmark

  My cousins, Anna and Lilly introduced me to Jane Austen, but also to the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice. It rubbed off on me and I bought the movie as well. I never got more into Austen otherwise though. I pretty much stopped with Pride and Prejudice, but to be honest that is enough…

• Movies In Real-Life

  It is so hard to not like Kevin Bacon. I grew up with the original Footloose, I loved the music it is such a classic movie for my generation. However, he leans somewhat liberal in this thinking unfortunately. There is a movie he did in 2009 called, “Taking Chance.” This afternoon while I watched the…

• My Birth Year Shining Through The Years

  Obviously my parents had a lot to do with my early years of life and were my influences. In the last decade I have done research into some of my favorite songs and films that surprised me. Have you seen those little booklets from years ago and what the prices were all the details to…

• Movie Memories

  Tonight is the debut of “The Biltmore Christmas.” For weeks this show has been on commercials for the Christmas Hallmark season. As much as I have a love and hate relationship with Hallmark I love this show already. About two months ago I was invited after church to a friends house with other church friends;…

  Love can be placed up against any backdrop and tell similar stories no matter what time period of history or age of the couple. That is the beauty of love it is absolutely timeless. Reading is such a wonderful experience I tend to think of it as watching a slow motion movie a chapter at…

• A Ghost and the Roaring 20’s

  Saturday I watched the new show on Hallmark. I wasn’t sure I wanted to I’m not much for ghosts and goblins, but this looked different. I have a love and hate relationship with Hallmark. I have spent more Saturday nights watching Great American Family Movies. They have more more of a religious spin to their…

• Boston

  Each time this funny, amazing, romantic and unfathomable story continues… only makes me smile more. Do you ever like shows, but then it takes several times of watching it to see the irony of a fact you didn’t realize before? Most of the movies I watch are Hallmark, please forgive me for that! Some of…
