 she likes both of them in different ways!  Nathan is more the secure, stabile type guy while Philip appeals to her independent, rich-loving style.  I also suspect that she got in over her head when he proposed.   Let’s face it, couples don’t last long on daytime unless they aren’t meant for each other.   Wonder how long it will be before Kate tries to control Melanie??? lol

 to be the nature of show business that you have to be overly thin because of the weight that the camera tends to add along with the people in charge of TV who seem to push the thin image.  Eating healthy is the main thing.  Maybe she’s just not eating the ‘junk’  type foods that some of us  eat?  If you eat just lean proteins and lots of fruits/veggies, you can be thin with a good metabolism.

 were 2 when Sami went into hiding but they seemed to have aged them since then.  I haven’t seen the show that you are referring to yet – are you a day ahead?   

I always loved the huge Christmas ornament shows.  The last few years it was like they just tossed them on.  Bonnie’s gaudy ornament was one of the worst I’ve ever seen.  I think Nicole’s broke right as it went on the tree just as her marriage to Lucas did.

 that would have any kid having a hard time.  She was 16 and left alone by a guy she loved but felt he didn’t love her because he just left her.  She was put out on the street at least twice (once by her mother and once by the older sister/relative she lived with).  She’s had a very hard life for a young girl.  She has no choice but to take it as it comes.  The part I didn’t buy was when she went to that foreign country to dance and then returned having failed.  I just wouldn’t have seen her leaving to begin with.  I also see some of the reaction the actress has is because she is only 16 while the actor that plays Chad is at least 18.  He is dating Melanie in real life so he’s in a younger story line than he actually is age wise.   Will, is only slightly older than Mia.   

Mia actually reminds me of Leann Rimes’ character when she briefly appeared on the show.  She has that ‘waif’ type look/expression.  I’d have a harder time if the character went to the extreme of being the party animal type.

 I didn’t watch that far back.  

 I have to wonder since from the papers, it just seemed that Nicole was accused of stealing the child from the Dimeras, not that she wasn’t the mother.  And, if Nicole was escaping from the Dimeras, why wouldn’t she just help her escape instead of keeping the child?  The old Anna never had a maternal instinct in her body!  

(This isn’t really a spoiler since it was seen on air yesterday)  Also in the preview: who did she get that unexpected call from?  Who would know she had the child unless Kate knew who else had the boots?  

 chemistry was even better than that of Wayne’s Roman.  Josh Taylor has a ‘Texas’ accent along with the slang that the original never would have used.  Chris K. used the Texas accent and slang and that is why I don’t like Josh as Fauxman.   His "What duh h*ll?" was just one of the things that the Roman I knew would never have said!  I always thought they just should have called Josh’s character Chris K. and left it as that.  That whole story with Marlena’s doctor friend from college, just made no sense to me and I hated the story.  I also felt that when Wayne returned, he and Marlena did not have that same chemistry that originally existed.  Maybe the chemistry with John was just so much more intense that it was hard to go back to something less?

 Melissa was adopted but maybe I’m confused, her last name was Anderson.  Sarah was the product of artificial insemination and I think her bio sperm donor was Evan Whyland with Maggie being the mother.  Mickey couldn’t have children.
