 AUGUST, what does that mean to you? Buying school supplies for the kiddos, new clothes for school? For me, a 61 year old empty nester, it means new TV shows are finally coming!!

Not quite the same as when I was younger, they don't start directly after the Labor Day weekend. 

I figured I'd make a list like I do for Christmas shows after the US Thanksgiving, put lots of information all in one place, handy-like. I have stuff for the US & Canada.

Global TV 2022 Fall preview:  https://www.globaltv.com/shows/fall-preview/

I love this show, it's even better than the original, in most respects anyway. And did anyone else notice that they cast Larry Manetti (he plays Nicky Demarco & was also in Hawaii Five-O in the same role), the actor who played the original Rick in the original Magnum in the 80s?

It was announced in May that Magnum was cancelled.

Fast forward to July 1st, and wonderful news, Magnum has been picked up for at least 2 more seasons on NBC! https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/magnum-p-i-show-saved-nbc-1235174750/?fbclid=IwAR3reBozPh-QhOfpA3xv0ONu4JFJFfYryD2pW7gwaLOEpSIF4gitrnJPtLE


And more exciting news, the Rookie has been renewed for it's 5th season & they've got a cool spin-off premiering, the Rookie: Feds




And some wonderful news for CSI fans, they're back!! I read recently that the new MacGyver has been cancelled. Has anyone suggested a new CSI: San Diego, to Jim Bruckheimer? Or even a crossover episode to tests the waters? They introduced CSI:NY & CSI:Miami with crossover episodes. I've read/heard that Gil & Sara will not be coming back this season, but apparently it looks like Catherine Willows may be returning.

 Thursday, August 04, 2022

I did a little shopping in Abbotsford & Mission today. I noticed recently that I don't seem to have many tank tops left, I'm not sure why. I stopped by the Dollar Tree on Marshall road in Abbotsford & they only had 1 in my size. Due to recent changes, some things at the Dollar Tree are no longer $1, so this was $1.50  I also got to keep the hanger.

I noticed while returning from a shopping trip the other day, that Urban Planet in Mission's Junction mall, was having a $5 blow out sale & I didn't even try to resist. I actually found a couple of shirts even cheaper, so I got 3 shirts for $12!!




I am now well-stocked with everything, until I start looking for a new winter coat, in November!
