Watching TV

I remember when I was pregnant with Stephenie. Of course, I didn't KNOW it was Stephenie at the time. I just knew I was pregnant with my first baby. Anyway, I had a little problem during the pregnancy. I was pre-eclampsic. It means a lot of bad things, medically; however, I felt FINE. But, nonetheless, I was confined to bedrest for quite a bit of time during my pregnancy.

I was sitting around tonight effectively avoiding algebra and flipping the channels of the TV and came across The Little House on the Prairie. This brought up memories of my first pregnancy.

Since I spent so much time on bedrest, I watched a great deal of TV. There were not nearly as many channels as there are today. We had cable, of course; but it did not mean the same thing it means now. It just meant the TV was really clear. Anyway, I used to watch several old shows. Now, these shows were old 20 years ago -- imagine how old they are today!!

One of my favorites was Little House. I also enjoyed The Waltons. When I was a little girl, I was a fan of The Brady Bunch. I guess that whole "perfect family and all good things and happy endings" appealed to me -- apparently it still does.

Oooohhhhh!!!! Gotta run! Part 2 is on! Poor Laura. Her little brother just died (previous episode) and she is feeling guilty because she was jealous. Don't want to give away too much... Chat soon!
