Yeah, the upkeep of a place like that would be immense.

Yes, two more days here as well. Waiting for Sunday night! I'm excited. I was disappointed when *SPOILERS* O'Brian left at the beginning of the first episode. She was a character everyone loved to hate, but she was a very well written character and a great actress.

Such a loss to the show! I definitely miss him. I loved how he was down to earth and wasn't afraid to stand up to Robert. Hahaha yes, they make a great duo, always interesting.

I caught most of it, I had to go help my sister out of the driveway, the snow was so high. Enjoyed? Not necessarily the word I'd use at this point in time. Intriguing me? Possibly. The show is frustrating me, everything just makes me want to tear my hair out!! Hopefully it all works out, I won't spoil anything for you.

If the DVR messed up, you can always watch it on the pbs website, they usually have them up the day after.

I need to sit down and watch it all the way through. I missed most of it because I had to go help my mom get out of our driveway so she could go to work, so I'm not sure what all happened. I did get the gist of it, though. I know, the clothes are amazing, I love them!
