Hey View...I am doing ok...still have a little cough but not to bad. Hubby and I went to lunch today and had to go to Lowes...he is building a desk for my daughter in law to give to my son for his birthday on the 30th. I the had some monthly paper work to do and a meeting with the Human resources department at the hospital to talk about insurance for next year. We're going to change from his city retirement insurance till I'm old enough to go on Medicare it's cheaper than our insurance is now by about $300 a month.

I have a couple more things to do in the house and then I'm gonna go get on the big computer I'm on my iPad now.

View I'll try to repost those videos.

Glad your not to sick Cek......hope the cough goes away quickly (((((hugs)))))

Thanks April...I am watching it because I don't want a repeat of last year with pneumonia...I just wish my daughter could stop coughing...she has had this for going on two weeks now and been the doctor twice but the cough won't go away....

Has she had a chest x-ray?

I'll say good night.  Y'all might want to take notice when it's 11:11 on 11/11 tonight!

 
Wasn't it 11:11 AM on 11/11/1918 when the truce was signed?

I just looked it up...it was the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.  Oh, well....my history is a bit rusty!!!  LOL

Son's college roommate (one of our "other" sons) has identical twins who were born on 11/12/13!!!  They are 2 years old today...live in the Detroit area.  The twins were born here (roommate and wife are from Korea) so they are citizens...but they also have a 6 year old who was born in Korea before they were able to immigrate legally.  So glad they are here.   We see the roommate occasionally when he comes to CA for work...and the 3 of them made a surprise visit to our 40th anniversary celebration a few years ago!

I have been reading all of the hub bub on the net about the Alexa/Tamar situation.  I kind of agree with you
April.  I really don't think it would be "right" to bring back Alexa.  For one thing, she would not have any votes from last Monday night, so by default she would be the "lowest" on the voting system for this upcoming week.  I think the best possible outcome would to have no elimination this coming week.  I wish it had worked out differently for everyone, but it is what it is and we can't go back and "do it over".  If they want to do something "special" for Alexa and her fans.........have her dance with Carlos in the trio....not sure how that would work......but it might ease the anger of her fans.

Speaking of which, April, how did your daughter take her being voted out and with what is going on now with Tamar dropping out?  Would be interested to know her feelings on everything.  Does she want her to come back knowing that she would probably be voted out again?  Just curious.

 
There have been a few other eliminations when someone had to drop out for whatever reason and I don't recall them ever bringing back someone previously eliminated.  That, I think, could create a firestorm...probably not a good idea.  They should give everyone else a bye this week...but who knows?!!!  LOL

So this is apparently the big "scheduling conflict" that took him out of SWDOI....although I presume he has contractual obligations with Cantamessa that likely take precedence.  Just hope he will DITCH the beanie and get a haircut 🙏🏽 for Neiman Marcus!!!  LOL

I waffled a bit on whether or not to post this, as I don’t really think it’s news – really and truly, it could just be someone from People creeping our comments section for material (it’s happened before with other outlets) – but I thought I’d share nonetheless, since this seems to be a developing story.

Per “an insider”, Alexa could be reinstated in light of Tamar’s withdrawal from the competition:

With Braxton’s spot in the season 21 final 5 now open, there is discussion among the show’s producers about bringing back PenaVega, 27, who was just eliminated on Monday.

“The producers are looking at all possibilities right now,” a DWTS insider tells PEOPLE. “There is a possibility that Alexa could be reinstated.”

The article goes on to mention that they’re not sure how it would work, given that the viewers weren’t able to vote for Alexa after Monday night’s show – basically, kinda what we’ve been talking about in the Tamar post. I don’t think Alexa returning is entirely out of the realm of possibility at this point, though – I think TPTB are probably flying by the seat of their pants right now, given that Tamar has kinda turned the show on its head this week, and are throwing out all kinds of ideas and trying to make them stick. Mark did post something very optimistic on Instagram a few hours ago, and out of the blue, Alexa was praising the crew for all of their hard work…has one of the producers possibly reached out to them already?

I would be really upset if they do bring Alexa back.  Nothing against her...but earlier in this season they had a similar situation and they gave everyone else a pass.  Who's to say that person (forgot her name!) wouldn't have been in the finals had she not gotten sick?  Also, they had announced Alexa in jeopardy for at least 2 weeks before she went.  Sometimes life throws you a curve ball that you strike out on...just accept it and MOVE ON.....   There's a reason for everything....
