Coming Home

I have a confession that will not be easy to make like most confessions. I have prided myself for years on not being "that" girl. Oh I've owned the crying, the emotions, the fragility, but this, this I have refused until recently. Dear friends, I've been watching Lifetime. Oh I know, I know!!!! I can feel your judgement. Can I just tell you it had an innocent beginning?

A favorite show of mine is How I Met Your Mother, despite the never ending story and the raunchiness of Barney I do really like it. I don't however have time to watch the new episodes so I just watch the reruns that of course air on Lifetime. Then one thing leads to another and that show is finished only then without my real attention moves on to another show. It started with Army Wives and has now moved on to Coming Home. I sit with a box of tissues watching the stories of these soldiers being reunited with their wives and children and my heart aches with them and rejoices for them. I'm a total sucker for it every time!

Sundays I usually forget that my show doesn't come on and I turn there and get caught up watching Coming Home. But recently, I have chosen to turn there knowing my show won't be on, anticipating even watching Coming Home followed by Army Wives. What has happened to me?!!! I've become a Lifetime girl.

But... maybe I can still say I'm not a Lifetime Original Movie girl...?

* I must side note that I have dear friends that are Lifetime fans. To that I say, to each her own, no judgement here.
