Thumbs up TOPIC: Enjoying Green Acre's, Bonaza, Beverly Hillbilly's In Recovery

Hi Im Sharon and Im an alcoholic.

I didnt think I would ever be happy
in life for anything, esp. after getting
sober.

However with a many one days at
a time collected together, working
a 12 step program, sharing my ESH
with others and living on lifes terms
with help and guidance from a Power
grater than myself, Im finally happy.

What's even grate about it is, i can
look back on old tv shows like Green
Acre's, Beverly Hillbillies, Bonanza
and more and have a blast laughing:rotfxko
my azz off.

I want Ava Gabor's wardrobe...lol You
know everything is coming back retro. lol

Little Joe, Ben, Hoss, Adam, Hopsing....lol
on the Pondarosa.

Then Mr Drysdale at the bank....lol Man
can u imagine going to a one room to do
ur banking....lol

Right now there's a frogman in the Clampetes
pool. Granny thinks he half man and half
frog...lol

It's ok to laugh in recovery. It's healthy
for ya.

It sounds fine at this point, just be vigilant about a subtle but dangerous craving for moonshine.

Wouldn't it be nice to live in Mayberry....I'm not talking RFD either, I mean the black and white Mayberry. Hanging out at Floyd's Barber Shop or over at Wally's Filling Station, or when you really need some excitement driving up to Mt. Pilot to see those fun girls, Skippy and Daphne, lol Lynx

Here is a little info about Green Acres.....


CBS produced 170 episodes of Green Acres
and it appeared on television from September
1965 till September 1971. Green acres was a
spinoff of Petticoat Junction.

Attorney Oliver Wendall, an attorney,
wanting to be a farmer all his life buys
The Haney 160 acre farm sight unseen
near Hooterville.

His wife Lisa objects leaving New York's
luxury to live in the country. She eventually
gives in and moves to the broken down
shack which is unfurnished and missing the
luxuries they are so accustomed.

The show is built around them adjusting
not only to the new style of living but to
the towns people with their backwards living.
