Brady Lessons

We recently rented The Brady Bunch from Netflix and watched it with the girls. As I was watching, I mentioned to John that some of my young life lessons were learned from watching The Brady Bunch show. He agreed. Amazing what they teach you on that show. Here are just a few quotes I found that exhibit the lessons you might just learn from watching the Brady family:

"A wise man forgets his anger before he lies down to sleep" - Mike Brady

"Mom always said don't play ball in the house!" - Bobby Brady

"Exact words are hard to live by." - Mike Brady

"When you bluff, someone may call you on it." - Mike Brady

"I'm not a snitcher, I just tell it like it is." - Cindy Brady

"You shouldn't put down a loser, Cindy, because you might be one yourself someday. Just remember that." - Carol Brady

"Quitters never win and winners never quit." - Carol Brady

"Well, Jan, sometimes when we lose - we win." - Carol Brady

"Money and fame are very important things, but sometimes there are more important things - like people." - Carol Brady

"You can't take a step forward with both feet on the ground." - Mike Brady

"Sometimes when you push people too far, you just can't bring them back again." - Carol Brady

"Everyone can't be George Washington." - Carol Brady

Glee-ful

I am always looking for something that makes me smile and laugh. And this really does!!!!

When it started in the Fall I wasn't into it. I saw that many people were watching it, but I just didn't stop to check it out. Then a friend told me more about it and I began watching it this season. It is soooo good.

And, I was thrilled to get a call from my dad yesterday telling me that he, too, is watching it. How cool is that???

Are you a Gleek??

Sad

Today marks the loss of two of my childhood icons.
This is the Michael Jackson I remember and loved.

And this is the Farrah Fawcett I loved to watch in the mid 70s.

Sad.

Up and Running

By 2:30 this afternoon, the tv was mounted, the cords were plugged in and we were watching the Giants game. All in all, pretty quick work with some help from a few friends. Here are the photos of the process and the final product:
