In our house, virtually everything stops during the hours the Olympics are on. i have my laptop with me, so I can check out the QB during commercials! I am ready, however, to get back to my sewing room!
Me, too! We've been hooked. Talk about reality TV! While I'm beginning to feel very old - we used to swoon over Mark Spitz - and now all those athletes could be my kids- I love to see how strong and accomplished they are. Admittedly I did tire of all the beach volleyball, though!
