Karen’s Opinion

I just finished reading James Patterson’s novel, 1st to Die. I had trouble putting this book down! My husband suggested I get a book light. LOL He is normally accommodating to me reading in bed but I pushed it a little by reading into the wee hours of the morning. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, the whole plot took a twist. I had to read “just one more chapter”.

This was a great book about a police woman trying to solve a crime while battling an extreme health issue of her own. It had a bit of romance and humor. I can’t wait to read the second book in the series. Luckily, I have it on my nightstand.

to understand the movie we watched the other night. Hubby and I rented The Other Man starring Liam Neeson, Antonio Banderas, Laura Linney, and Romola Garai. The actors spoke in low tones and we had trouble catching on as to what the plot might be. We turned the volume way up and finally figured out what “might” be happening. I don’t think we are that old!

The movie had an interesting theme, what would you do if you found out that your wife had an affair. If you could find the “other” man, would you want to meet him? What would you have to say to said man? What you think you would do and what you would actually do might surprise you. I recommend this movie, if you are really bored.

Yesterday, mom and I visited Fair Oaks Farms near Winimac, Indiana. This is a fantastic place and I learned a lot about dairy farming. This video gives a short idea of what the place is like. It was not at all like the farms that are portrayed in Food, Inc. There is hope!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Charter. All opinions are 100% mine.

When we were told that our television services were going to change, I was upset. I don’t like change! It would be one more thing to get used to without a positive return, or so I thought.

I have been pleasantly surprised because Charter TV in Digital has a lot to offer. The best thing about it is that we can catch up on our favorite television shows. I always hate to be inside on a beautiful summer night just to watch the latest episode of 24 and now I don’t have to be chained to their time slot. I can go to the On Demand home page and find many of the shows I enjoy. Just this past week, my daughter was visiting and had a friend stay with us. Her friend has a five-year-old daughter who was thrilled that we could use On Demand so she could watch iCarly and Hannah Montana. The listings for movies, premium movies, music, kids TV, HD programming seems endless.

If you are on Facebook, I hope You will ‘Like’ their Facebook page as well as you learn how they have a made a huge commitment to our military families. Their high-speed internet service and free webcams allow more communication amongst those who serve our country.
