One Day at a Time Original TV Series 1975 Phenomenal!

one day dra martha castro noriega tijuana california los angeles mexico

 

I’ve been having a good time watching «One Day at a Time». It has a great story about a mom -Ann Romano- who moved out on her own with her two teenage daughters: the rebellious Julie and the wisecracking Barbara. Ann Romano, fantastically played by Bonnie Franklin.

I love the premise of the show: a divorcee mom with two daughters not being afraid of making it in the world alone, feeling free, hopeful, happy and strong.
I don’t know if you, reader, have watched this tv show, if you haven’t and you like to have a good time with your family, I recommend you see it.

 

Another thing I adore about this series is the theme song: 

 

 

One Day at a Time premiered on December 16, 1975 and ended in 1984; 9 seasons. It was best known as a staple of the CBS Sunday-night lineup, along with Archie Bunker’s Place, Alice and The Jeffersons.

Ann frequently struggles with maintaining her role as mother while affording her daughters the freedom she never had as a young woman. David Kane, Ann’s divorce lawyer and neighbor, takes a romantic interest in her, but she isn’t ready to remarry. Dwayne Schneider, the building’s quirky superintendent (most often referred to only by his last name), provides usually-unwanted advice to the tenants.

Yes, indeed, I miss the Community Pool in the Blogosphere of WordPress. 

 

There was lots of interaction and communication. I got to chat with many bloggers and know their experiences and points of view.

 

Also, everybody could check each others blogs, give advices and opinions about how to improve them. I hope WP brings it back, or another similar idea would be nice.

I seldom talk about my family, and that is because we tend to be kind of private, but when a new member is born, the joy my heart feels is so immense I have to express it in some way.

I love so many things in my life, science is one of them, music, nature, cycling, etc., but my loved one are definitely number one. Nothing is more important to me than my beautiful loyal loving daughter, my son in law and his parents (they are adorable), my partner of 28 years (and going….), my cousins, my nieces, my grandchildren.

As all of you know, one of the tv shows I love to watch is Grey’s Anatomy. One of the many things I like from this show are Meredith’s monologues. Here is one for a wonderful sunday reflexion.

 

Word of the day: BOUNDARIES

 

word dra martha andrea castro tijuana mexico

 

«At some point you have to make a decision. Boundaries don’t keep other people out, they fence you in, life is messy… That’s how we are made… So you can waste your life drawing lines… Or you can live your life crossing them… But there are some lines… That are way too dangerous to cross… Here’s what I know, if you are willing to take the chance… The view from the other side is spectacular…» — Meredith, Grey’s Anatomy
