Hi there, another day, another great episode!

Don’t you just love that fabulous man Zach!!! Boy, how do you get a man like Thorsten Kaye? Do real men even exist like him?? If so where are they all hiding? I suppose only in the soaps.  He is so noble, so loyal to Kendall, not to mention so very good-looking! I just love the way he stands up for his wife, Kendall and asks Greenlee to leave the party after she  makes Kendall  so uncomfortable  by asking to hold baby Spike. Kendall makes an excuse and tries to keep Spike away from her. What was Greenlee expecting? Fun, games, acceptance with old freinds?

I have to admit I really do like the new Greenlee. I think she is doing a fabulous job to play the character, especially coming in brand new and trying to pick up where the old Greenlee left off. Although I’m not quite sure what she is trying to achieve by hanging around Kendall, her baby and Ryan’s family, really she is just setting herself up for heartache.

Although I did feel sorry for her when she sees that Ryan is such a great dad to Annie’s daughter. After all it  was her whole mission to have a family with Ryan, it was him that kept denying that he would ever be a decent father.  She was the one who said the she believed in him and that he was nothing like his own father and that she would stick it out with him and they would have  a baby together. You had to feel sorry for her when things did not ago as planned and she lost her chance.

I couldn’t blame her for being in total shock when she found out that the baby that Kendall was carrying was really going to be Kendall’s baby and the heartache caused her to leave town for a break. However she made a terrible mistake assuming that Ryan would go searching for her and  beg for her to come home. Finally she cast her pride aside and came home to him, only a little too late.

A great lesson for all. When you have a found a good man, don’t let him slip away because if he is a decent man someone is waiting there to snatch him up.

I guess she is back in Pine Valley because after all it is home but she has to recognize that life has moved on and that there are new boundaries and she is in for a lot of pain. If she thinks that she is going to try to get Spike back she is way off!!! I don’t even want to go there and I sure hope she has enough sense not to try although you have to wonder after her little conversation with daddy Jackson the other day.

What is up with Sean?  Is Ava really that irresistible?   He allows Ava to seduce him on the Chandler yacht. Colby and I thought he had feelings  for her as he really likes her. Does he feel she is too young or maybe too many strings with difficult daddy Adam Chandler?   I guess Ava is no strings and easy, but I have to say I am a little disappointed. Colby and I. Colby sneaks on the boat and secretly watches them kiss.

Don’t get me wrong about Ava, I really like her and I think it was a great idea to bring her on. It gives her  actress a chance to play a different role and she is doing a great job.

Wasn’t that  a shocker!  Krystal and Derek? What will they think of next. I thought it was cheap the way he sits at the bar finishing his drink with his line ” Have I ever told you how much I like you?”  And that’s all it takes to get  a big smacker kiss from Krystal, maybe Adam did have her pegged right after all. He caught them in a lip lock as he  was actually coming to see her as Palmer has got him thinking. Oh well, serves him right.

 I’m happy for Babe as she has a new job to keep her busy in the bar after Greenlee took her shares back and left her feeling worthless.  Amanda says her congratulations to Babe with a hug as JR catches her eye over Babe’s shoulder. She  decides to keep her secret about her and JR getting together.

By the way don’t you agree that it is getting time for JR to get a hair cut. He is one handsome fellow but I do prefer him in a shorter cut.

Please add your comments on what you enjoyed in today’s episode.

I just wanted to add that I forgot to commend AMC the other day for taking initiative on this very important issue of global warming  at Fusion and trying to be energy conscious.  Until tomorrow….

Cute dress today Amanda, and way to  not giving in to JR’s advances, you know he only wants to use use and then throw you away, when he’s done.  Next Johnathan comes on to her, and she says what I am thinking, it is my dress?  She accuses Jonathan of using her to get over his kiss with  Ava and that he wishes was with Lily and reminds him of how there last conversation she had confessed her love for him but he had quickly dismissed her for being in love with Lily.  She is not going to be used by him now and runs off. Where has she gone?

 Johnathan is becoming nicer  to Ava and treating her much better.  Ava gave quite the speech right back not to feel sorry for her. But when Ava conveniently uses a strangers advances to get her away from Jonathan the stranger becomes aggressive and Jonathan comes to her rescue and she is relieved and grateful but runs off tho find where Sean has gotten to .

On Yesterday’s episode Krystal admitted to Babe that money was not everything and Babe agreed, but Krystal couldn’t wait to sell her “old” jewels from Adam for their cash value. Wow! they must have been some  stones! Enough to by a buy a bar today!!! Is she the queen of England with the crown jewels? Only in the soaps!

 When  Palmer confronts Adam about Krystal never loving him and selling out his jewels for cash, Adam is quick to snap to Krystal’s defence and retorts how Palmer has no idea what it is like to be loved by Krystal and that Palmer is not even fit to shine her shoes! Palmer is surprised and exclaims that Adam is a bigger fool then he thought to let a woman go that he is still madly in love with, Adam confirms Palmer’s statements by angrily retorting  that he has no idea what it is like to love a woman like Krystal and kicks Palmer out. When Palmer leaves Adam sadly reflects on a memory of loving Krystal.

 Meanwhile Tad lands a kiss on Krystal. Tad tries to point out the danger of losing the bar she has just invested in with Adams jewels, but she is not easily shaken and is determined to make it a success and have everyone welcome.

Stuart walks in and proclaims that she is just trying to make the bar a home away from home only without Adam. Got to love that Stuart, he is everyone’s conscious. Then Krystal  fires Stuart before he is hired to paint a portrait of all the customers who will come to the bar?????HUH? I guess he’ll be painting everyday, although how many new people could there be?

Krystal then announces to Babe that she is a full partner and gives her a key to the bar as some construction falls from the ceiling on Tad and dirties his suit!   He recommends  delaying opening and have the inspection first, Krystal pushes his advice aside. Hmmm opening night should be interesting.

 Sean and Colby discuss “rock climbing” with a double meaning of taking it slow to be sure and toy around with the idea of getting together again without saying it out loud.

Jr, tries to convince Colby to convince Adam to retire and back off Chandelier or it will have dire consequences for his heart. Colby is quick to see that JR is trying to manipulate her to keep Adam from taking over Chandelier and out of the boardroom.   Sean has been hiding in the bushes from JR and once he leaves he commends Colby for her stand against Jr and her loyalty to Adam plants a heavy kiss on her. Jealous naughty Ava catches the passionate kiss on er cell phone and takes a photo.

Meanwhile Amanda reconsiders Jr previous offer and gives surprises lonely JR with a heavy kiss. They 2 of them lip lock. Wow what a dress. I guess I gave her to much credit too soon, oh well.

 Greenlee and Josh have a quick encounter, looks as if there is some potential there for something. Please feel free to fill in your thoughts and details about today’s show on these two.

Well those were my highlights for today. Oh I almost forgot, we were given a tiny tibit about Hannah and Josh today from the sneak peak. Please feel free to fill in anything of importance that I forgot, thanks and cheerio. Until tomorrow…..
