Hello Friends and Happy Feel Good Friday!
Can you believe it’s the end of August and that summer is almost over?
Today’s OOTD post is featuring a style of pants that never seems to go out of style and that is Palazzo Pants. As a boomer it seems as though I have been wearing this style for over 40 years, yet some may say it’s a new style, gotta love those millennials!
If you are fabulous after fifty, Palazzo pants are a wardrobe staple. The wide legs and elastic waist are very forgiving and can be worn with a simple tee shirt or a sleeveless tank as I have paired one with mine.
You can dress up a pair of Palazzo Pants with heels or dress them down and be comfy casual in flats or sandals. This particular pair was purchased several years ago from Marshalls, but I have recently found a few other pairs from Zulily, check them out.
Disclosure: If you click on the link and make a purchase, I might just make enough coins to buy a cup of coffee!
How do you feel about these wide-leg pants, do you have a pair in your closet?
Hey, don’t touch that dial!
Do you know which 60’s sitcom featured that tagline?
I hope your day is as beautiful as you are!

Hello friends, do you sometimes feel overwhelmed with all the sex, violence and unrealistic reality programming on television today? I know sometimes I just want to turn on the set, sit back, relax and laugh while watching old skool sitcoms?
Thanks to television stations like Antenna TV, Me-TV and Cozi TV I oftentimes get a chance to do just that, and this is just a partial list of some of my favorites:
- Gidget
- The Flying Nun
- Good Times
- Mork and Mindy
- Maude
- Alfred Hitchcock Presents
- Father Knows Best
- Sanford and Son
- WKRP in Cincinnati
- Three’s company
- Adam-12
- Gilligan’s Island
- The Beverly Hillbillies
- Night Gallery
- Perry Mason
- Different Strokes
If you put me on a desert island, I could be happy for years just watching these shows and snacking on chips. How about you, what are some of your favorite old skool television shows?

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!
Driving home last evening I started thinking about the old TV sitcoms that I loved to watch as a child, the ones that made me rush through dinner so I could lay in front of the television set until bedtime. We didn’t have a lot of homework so the only thing that might have cut into our TV watching time was Bible Study and/or Prayer Service at Church.
Now thanks to online websites like Retro Cafe, Hulu and YouTube as well as over the air stations like AntennaTV and Cozi TV, I can watch them anytime I want. Having only 3 stations and broadcasting ended at midnight with the playing of the Star Spangled Banner these were my top ten favorites.
- I Love Lucy
- Julia
- The Beverly Hillbillies
- Bewitched
- Leave it to Beaver
- Family Affair
- Gilligan’s Island
- The Patty Duke Show
- Hazel
- The Honeymooners
What wasn’t there to love about that zany redhead and her antics with Ethel – loved when they moved to Connecticut
The first time we ever saw a black woman not playing a maid and we loved her son
Come on Granny, you know you could have whomped Mrs. Drysdale – I always wanted to swim in the “cement pond”
Nosy Mrs. Kravitz and oh how I wished I could wiggle my nose to make magic
Wally and Beaver…really…come on June and Ward – I did like they had a bathroom in their bedroom
Something about Mr. Bill and Mr. French raising those kids it was such a sweet and innocent sitcom
Gotta love a feisty maid like Hazel, I often wondered if my grandmother acted the same way with the families she worked for
Really people…you could make a radio out of a coconut but couldn’t make a boat out of trees! Poor Gilligan
I could never figure out how Patty and Cathy could be in the same scene…but it was obvious they weren’t
Ralphie Boy…And away we go! I loved watching the “shadow” on the wall – and everything fit into that one dresser drawer
What were some of your favorite sitcoms as a child and why?
