I See Love (2010)

Unfamiliar with this week's song. Hear it here.

1) This is the theme from Mike and Molly, a TV show that ran from 2010 to 2016. Were you a fan?

It was alright. 

2) Molly was played by Melissa McCarthy. Today she's one of Hollywood's best-paid actresses, but when she began her career, she was barely scraping by. She recently recalled the time when, as a struggling actress, she was rejected at the ATM because it only gave out $20s and she didn't have even that much in her checking account. How often do you visit the ATM? Several times a week? Several times a month? Never?

once a week.

3) When she was broke, Melissa couldn't afford blueberries and avocados.  Now she savors them. When you're a few bucks ahead, what do you splurge on?

Fruit & donuts. Right now, prices are up and things are so expensive. Have you noticed that ground beef is at nearly $4 a pound. Just saying. I also like shoes and purses...but we won't go there. LOL

4) Mike was played by Billy Gardell. He was working at a comedy club, cleaning the bathrooms and answering the phone. He used to crack jokes with other employees and finally one of his coworkers dared him to go onstage on "open mic night." A comedy career was born. Tell us about someone who pushed you to make the right move.

My husband and son are my biggest cheerleaders.

5) On the show, Mike's best friend was his fellow officer, Carl McMillan. Carl was not especially motivated and still lived with his grandmother, well into his 30s. How old were you when you moved out of the house for good?

I was kicked out at age 18 and was told to never return and I haven't. Which is why I am a different parent than my parents were.

6) Mike's and Molly's mothers are different as night and day and frequently did not get along. Have you ever had in-law trouble?

Yes. every single day. My mil has dementia, she is a severe diabetic, and she is also mentally ill, her husband (not my husbands father) has severe epilepsy and the court awarded us Conservatorship. I control their financial lives and hubby controls the rest. AND No, we don't get help from the other 5 kids or any other family member, they are all bitter, mean spirited etc.

7) This week's song was written by Keb Mo. He switches among several different guitars when he works -- electric, acoustic and resonator. Can you play guitar?

Nope

8) In 2010, when this show premiered, Apple introduced the iPad. Do you use a tablet?

Yes, just to play my Township game and to take photos. 

9) This week's random question gives you an opportunity to brag: What's something you do better than most people?

I don't know...probably research. But truthfully, I'm a Jack of all Trades...just don't ask me to build a house or construction. So not my thing. lol

Lol. Have a great day folks.
