Marie's Garden helps Austic Children Blossom

Marie's Garden is a brand new organization raising funds to start facilities that will help families with children that have been diagnosed having any of the conditions within the ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). 

Marie's Garden will also accept children who have OCD and ADHD into the after hour and weekend programs as well.  Marie's Garden has a Mission Statement that says, “To provide a safe haven and nurturing environment for children to visit that have been diagnosed with conditions within the Autism Spectrum Disorder, plus diagnosed with OCD and ADHD.   The Founder/Director/Fund Raiser Danielle Watt is striving to open a facility in one of the southern states in America and a prime location in Australia.  

The amount of funding garnered will dictate where each facility will be opened as different regions require different start up funding amounts.  The Founder and Major fund raiser Danielle Watt has a young daughter who was diagnosed last year with Autism and has created this project to offer parents a break after school or on weekends so they can get their chores done while providing an understanding, nurturing safe place for their children to visit.   A Go Fund Me page has been created for this purpose.  You can visit the "Marie's Garden' Project to learn more about the personal reasons Ms. Watt has elected to make this her life’s mission.  If you would like to interview Ms. Watt, please use the below contact information.

General Hospital: Baby Avery & Silas

Image captured from GH YouTube Channel from episode aired on 1-27-15

How cute is this baby Avery?  I just had to get these shots up of her and share them.  What I can’t figure out is why Silas is raising her? 

He thinks Ava had his child (Kiki) and kept that child away from him all their lives.  Now, you and I know if you have been watching and paying attention that Ava and Nina’s mother knew each other from way back when and there is still a secret. 

Image captured from GH YouTube Channel from episode aired on 1-27-15

How much do you want to bet that secret is that Kiki is actually Nina and Silas’s child, NOT Ava and Silas’s?  I don’t know if they are going to wait for this secret until the new Kiki now? 

Image captured from GH YouTube Channel from episode aired on 1-27-15

So Silas takes this adorable baby to visit her incarcerated TV Mom and we get all kinds of adorableness from this baby.  We also get a much animated Silas.  You don’t normally see much animation from his so it was a nice change.  Ava lets him know she is going to be escaping.  Is Ava going to die in the jail break? 

Today’s scenes felt like a goodbye, not a see ya!  What do you think?  Is Ava going to save Sonny and then beg him to take care of their daughter? 

My Daily Observation is:  Between Maxie’s real life baby Harper and her on screen baby Georgie and baby Avery, there is so much cuteness on GH these days.  All we need is a puppy and some kittens.

DAYS: Clyde tells Victor how it is going to be

Image captured from DAYS YouTube Channel episode aired 1-13-15

I watch this episode on Tuesday as Victor did his usual threatening to an adversary and this time it was CLYDE.        

Clyde was not having it.  How ironic that both Victor and Stefano both hate Clyde.  They may have to join forces to get rid of this guy because he is pretty slick.    

He is like the Gotti of the Hillbilly Mafia, like the Teflon Don everything slides right off of him.  Have we all forgotten that he is the reason why EJ is dead?  What do you think Stefano will do when he finds that out and he will find that out? 

He is about 20 years younger than both Victor and Stefano as I believe those actors are in their 70’s and Clyde is probably in his late 50’s.

Is everybody ready to see Clyde get his?  I think it is going to be a while. I think that Clyde is going to control drugs and most of the underhanded business in Salem for a little while now. 

I also think that his son is going to go to work for him and soon.  It’s going to get real ugly all up there in Salem.  Do you think that Ben is going to go to work for his father? 

Do you think that Stefano and Victor will join forces to get rid of Clyde?

GH: Just a man and his Louisville Slugger

Image captured from GH YouTube Channel epi-aired 1-12-15

This is regarding yesterday’s episode.  It actually was pretty funny when FLUKE came up out of the basement with his baseball bat.  How can Bobbie not see that there is something wrong with this guy who is supposed to be her brother?  He so wanted to bash her head in with that baseball bat.  He knew about the tree climbing. 

Again now today, the writers seem to be on the fence about whether or not FLUKE is really look or someone from he and Bobbie’s long ago past like Mitch Williams. They are losing the viewers on this one.  I bet even the cast is sick of this storyline.  6 more days and this story-line is official one year old.  I wonder what was the longest storyline in soap history has been?  I bet this one is coming close. 

Do you remember any other story lines that seemed to drag on forever?  I will tell you one and GH was guilty of that one too.  THE ICE PRINCESS STORYLINE!!

Y&R: Nick should mind his own business

Image captured via Y&R YouTube Channel epi-aired 1-12-15

This blog post is about Monday’s episode.  What is up with Nick?  Is there anybody else that thinks that Nick needs to mind his own damn business and stop butting in on Sage and Gabriel’s life? 
He is becoming a real A-hole and I don’t think there is anybody that can support the way he has been following Gabe & Sage around.

His life is a freaking mess and he should work on cleaning that up.  The last thing he needs is another love interest right now and all his free time should be devoted to his youngest daughter who can’t stand the site of him right now.  

Sharon is working on bettering herself and Nick is running around spying on people, buying flowers for dead women he never knew and writing checks for that same woman as well. 
He is much more like his father than he wants to admit but this behavior has Victor written all over it.  Do you agree?
