I can’t believe I didn’t think of that..Mosquitos love me... Miserable creatures
I do watch Sherlock and couldn’t believe it was the same guy!
Aw what did you do to yourself? Hope it heals quick! *hugs*
I tripped and my forehead hit the pavement. Who knew it would create a black eye! LOL!
Last night I thought that was an old picture..but I see it’s new! Looks like you took a nasty fall...I’m sorry you were injured.
(((HUGS)))!
Well, it wasn’t quite as nasty as it looks, but thanks! (((hugs)))
It’s still a bit painful on the actual bump on my forehead, but my eye just LOOKS bad. :)
My husband and I are watching it Netflix. We recently disconnected from cable (Directv) and rely on Hulu+ and Netflix to watch tv, as the digital antennas don't work well all the time.
We are a fan of Elementary with Jonny Lee Miller and were happy to find this as another choice while Elementary is on summer break.
My only compliant with Sherlock is the series has been entirely to short.
I think Martin Freeman is excellent as Holmes and also think
Benedict Cumberbatch is excellent as Sherlock.

I have cut my cable too and rely entirely on a cheap antenna in the attic and streaming internet feeds on XBMC which is free.
I am about 65 to 100 mile from the nearest transmitter and this little antenna gets me about 68 channels in HD.
I also run XBMC which is what I usually use
I get so much stuff on xbmc it is ridiculous, you just need high speed internet.
I use the crap out of F.T.V, 2 movies evolved, Mashup, Movie25, project Free TV, Istream, 1channel and Icefilms which are all add ons for XBMC.
FTV gives be about 16 UK channels under it non geo menu and I love them.
Heck I am watching BBC now!

Buh Bye $75 a month cable bill.
If you have not been watching, do look up the series “Fargo” All the Characters are brilliant and Martin Freeman is excellent as Lester Nygarrd.

We’re using digital antennas on each tv so that we do not have to run cable through each room. We may have to do that eventually, but right now we are running trials to see what we can live with.
I have to get back to practicing with Chromecast and streaming from laptop. Although I don’t know what we’d watch that way that we can’t via Hulu.
We’re saving about $125 a month by canceling DirecTV. We’re going to buy another smart tv so we have wi-fi in bedrooms.
I’m not watching that much tv anymore (we used to DVR and watch shows together) but my husband is checking out a number of shows through Hulu+. He’s now watching Surviving Jack and I can hear him laughing like a loon.
If Fargo the show is anything like the movie, I don’t expect to like it...too “out there” for me.
Sherlock is wonderful!
I’m watching him on a BBC series call Parade’s End. (I think) He’s a good actor. I just can never remember his real name. LOL!
I always want to call him Balderdash. :)
LOL Cumberbatch is new for me, so I don't expect to remember his name. So, I'll remember Benedict (as in Arnold LOL)
He’s very good! In the BBC show I’m watching on Amazon Prime, he has blond hair.
Benedict/Sherlock?
No...another series that has him about to go off to WWI. :)
An English aristocrat. He plays the part very well. He still
has that analytical mind like Sherlock. :)
Oh!
WOOOHOOO..Miss #200

YOU ARE CHIPS AND SALSA
You are energetic and a real go getter. You can even be aggressive at times.
You love taking risks and taking the rewards. You are a true daredevil.
You can be a bit greedy in life, and you go after what you want.
You are courageous and edgy. You will do what others are afraid of.
