Christmas memories: A special time shared with my husband
I joined a Facebook group titled Christmas Memories and have enjoyed reading what the members have shared. I have many fond events that I can recall over my 63 years but there is one holiday habit so speak that I can never again participate in so I decided to write about it in this article. I met my husband Michael L Preston Sr.on April 25, 1976. I never spent a Christmas without him in 45 years until now. He passed away on March 7, 2021 five months after suffering a massive stroke and my heart is still broken.

The Young and the Restless: Thanksgiving week will be boring
The Young and the Restless update: Fans will endure a boring week If fans of The Young and the Restless are looking for breaking news and hot spoilers they will not find them during the week of Thanksgiving 2021. The CBS soap will have a repeat of Victoria Newman's (Amelia Heinle) and Ashland Locke's (Richard Burgi) wedding in Tuscany which is something fans do not want to see. A majority of viewers were done with the nuptials before they even took place, This is because of how long and drawn out this storyline was and how it eclipsed other plots that viewers were more invested in.

The Young and the Restless update: Chance and Abby are reunited
The Young and the Restless: The rumors are false The Internet rumor is going strong that Melissa Ordway is leaving The Young and the Restless but the above photo should put that to rest. The actress who portrays Abby Newman on the CBS soap took a selfie with Conner Floyd who will now portray her onscreen husband Chance Chancellor. Fake news has been circulating that while Abby is searching for her husband she will go missing and her portrayer will leave Y&R. There has not been one shred of evidence to back this up and loyal fans see it for what it is.

The Bold and the Beautiful: Thanksgiving Day highlights
The Bold and the Beautiful: A past reflection The above image is from a Thanksgiving past on The Bold and the Beautiful where everyone smoked the peace pipe together. Could you even imagine Shelia and Deacon sitting down to eat with these folk? Perhaps in the future the writers might get back to this way of observing the day but for 2021 things will be very different.

General Hospital update: Will Nina's tears soften Sonny's heart?
General Hospital: Nina needs something to smile about Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) has been in a depressed state for close to a year, on General Hospital. Practically every time she is on screen she is sad or in tears about some issue in her life. She spent 9 months conflicted over the fact that she was keeping Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) away from his family. She has cried about missing time with her grandson Wiley Corinthos 9Caleb and Kyler Ends). She cried after Lenny Caulfield ( Riff Hutton) died and after Phyllis Caulfield (Joyce Guy) and "Mike" found out she knew his real identity and kept it secret.

A Charlie Brown Christmas: The 2021 television schedule
A Charlie Brown Christmas: The beloved special returns The good news is that the animated Peanuts Christmas special will be available to watch on TV this year. It will only be for one night, unlike network television where it aired twice in the last few years. Cox Cable offered it for a fee in 2017 which I believe was an insult because it had always been free. A Charlie Brown Christmas will air in 2021 on Sunday, December 19 at 7:30 p.m. ET on PBS and PBS Kids.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer: The voice actors behind Clarice and Rudolph
Rudolph The Rede-Nosed Reindeer is a beloved classic Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer is a holiday classic that premiered on December 6, 1964. Baby Boomers have enjoyed this animated treat along with children and grandchildren every year over the decades. There have been a few changes along the way such as the song Why am I such a misfit being replaced with a more upbeat We're a couple of misfits. The latter is a sad tale of Rudolph wondering why he is rejected because of his red nose. In the new version Rudolph and Hermie, the elf celebrate their differences.

Intolerance and Indifference in the online workplace
Everyone knows about online bullying and people saying things from behind the computer screen that they would not utter if face to face. Most people have experienced or seen other employees treated unfairly in a physical workplace but not everyone may be aware of intolerance and indifference in an online employment setting but I just experienced it. I took a job where I was paid for every article I wrote as opposed to being paid per views. I was required to join a group Skype chat where about 10 or 12 fellow writers posted on a daily basis.

The Young and the Restless rumor mill falsely claim Melissa Ordway is leaving the soap
The Young and the Restless rumors: Abby is gone from Genoa City but she should return The above photo speaks volumes and should dispell the misinformation that is being circdulated regarding The Young and the restless. Having said that lets get to the matter at hand. Clickbait is when you title a story in such a way that a lot of people will read it but the information does not match up with what was advertised. Right now there are growing headlines for articles and videos that are suggesting that Melissa Ordway is leaving The Young and the Restless. Anything is possible but based on the storyline her character Abby Newman has left Genoa City to search for her missing and presumed dead husband Chance Chancellor.

Happy Days: A little known character Nostalgic fans often wonder about certain actors that they see on their favorite sitcoms now that many years have passed. Often, these individuals have not been thought about until an episode appears with them in it. The name John Anthony Bailey may not sound familiar but he made history as the first African American on the ABC sitcom Happy Days. He was the drummer for Richie Cunningham's band and only appeared in two episodes in 1975 and his nickname was "Stix".
