Good Evening Oodiebom, I hope you and your husband had a good weekend. I also hope Mr. Oodiebom’s pain is not very much, it’s not easy living with pain. A good idea is to make a list of the pros and cons of going up North for the surgery. And considering the time of the year too.
You mentioned pizza, I have been wanting to eat a pizza lately. But a real good one, which we don’t have around here. Last time was years ago, in Sarasota, FL. We were on vacation and found this small restaurant, Italian that made a fantastic pizza. The brick oven makes all the difference.
Take Care Oodie.

Peace Out Peeps! Have a safe and warm evening. ✨✨

@oodiebom,

I have been in the Community since 1999. I was doing lyrics way back then. I’ve always
done them here on HSN. 😘💕✨

I spend money here on HSN and QVC equally. 😜 I don’t watch QVC it’s been years but I do
watch everything on HSN because I am here everyday. OH! I got got my Andrew Lessman
order on Christmas Eve so HSN did keep their promise and delivery before Christmas. 😎

Oodie your mammogram will fine I can feel it. 😘✨

I wish I could go with you while you have it. I know what it all feels like.

@xango,

Sometimes it’s just nice to know. I am a Wild Rose 🌹 I have lived most of the songs.
Music was always in our house from childhood until now. I have worked with geniuses
I learned more standing in the shadow than anywhere else. 😘✨

Ella Fitzgerald
“Anything Goes”

n olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now heaven knows, anything goes

Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words writing prose, anything goes

The world has gone mad today and good’s bad today
And black’s white today and day’s night today
When most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gigolos

So though I’m not a great romancer
I know that you’re bound to answer
When I propose, anything goes

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now heaven knows, anything goes

And good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words writing prose
‘Cause anything goes

The world has gone mad today and good’s bad today
And black’s white today and day’s night today
When most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gigolos

So though I’m not a great romancer
I know that you’re bound to answer
When I propose, anything goes

May I say before this record spins to a close
I want you to know anything goes

What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve
Song by Ella Fitzgerald

When the bells all ring and the horns all blow
And the couples we know are fondly kissing
Will I be with you or will I be among the missing?
Maybe it’s much too early in the game
Ah, but I thought I’d ask you just the same
What are you doing New Year’s, New Year’s eve?
Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
When it’s exactly twelve o’clock that night
Welcoming in the New Year, New Year’s Eve?
Maybe I’m crazy to suppose
I’d ever be the one you chose
Out of the thousand invitations you received
Ah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year’s, New Year’s Eve?
Ah, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year’s, New Year’s Eve?
Oh, what are you doing New Year’s, New Year’s Eve?

Happy New Year Peeps! ✨💕

I remember the first owners of HSN. At that time it was called Home Shopping and we had the toots from tootie. The first owners actually drove Home Shopping to the ground because they started QVC and wanted it to be like a Lord & Taylor of television. Believe it or not, these same individuals again own HSN. Just before HSN was to claim bankruptcy and close for good, Barry Diller came along and bought it. I think a day or two after closing the purchase he had a circus on the HSN grounds and in their studio. He said that there would be changes. And there were. Under Barry Diller, the station grew and became number one. The jewelry selection were beautiful as well as the named designers in clothing. The prices were good also along with the shipping costs. Those people knew how to deliver. Also in those days, new gems were discovered. HSN became known as the jewelry and gemstone network. Today, that has been turned over to The Liquidation Channel. They have gems that I have never heard of. Yes, their prices reflect this as well. Nice to look at, but too high to buy. Yes, I definitely miss the old regime. They cared and so did their hosts back then. Oh how I hate a hard sell. .
