What I’m Working On: May 4th, 2026 from Jo's Country Junction

…and just like that, the calendar flipped into May. This year is speeding along. I’m so happy I was able to move several projects in my sewing room along. I got my John Deere 4 patch quilt blocks ironed. I need about 100 more. I got more strip sets cut…and put together 120 more 4 …

What I’m Watching: The Series Addition from Jo's Country Junction

If any of the Iowa State Men or Women are playing basketball…or the Hawkeye Iowa or Men…I’m watching. Other than that, I’ve been picking some other things to watch. Arnie prefers movies…me I like series. So often when he isn’t around, I watch limited series. I watched True Detectives, Season 4. Jodie Foster is in …

What I’m Watching: The Movie Edition from Jo's Country Junction

In between sports, Arnie and I have been watching a few movies over the last month or so. I thought I would share them with you. First up is The Green Mile. I have never seen it before. Arnie can’t believe how many movies I haven’t seen. This movie is LONG…like 3 hours long. Here …

What I’m Watching: The Series Addition from Jo's Country Junction

When Arnie is around, we watch a lot of sports…when it’s just me…I watch a lot of limited series. Today I’m going to tell you about the series that I’ve been watching. I really don’t mind what I’m watching…sports, movies, series, YouTube…whatever it is, I’m stitching. I watched All Her Fault on Peacock. I really …

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I have a few more shows to share with you… I watched this in mid-September when I got home from surgery. One of my girls recommended I watch it. I was a Biggest Loser fan for a couple of seasons…I have not idea why, especially after watching this show. I watched this via Netflix. Here …

What I’ve Been Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I never thought What I’ve Been Watching would ever become a regular blog post feature. It’s amazing what cancer in the spine and some pinched nerves will do. It’s turned me into more of a television watcher. Arnie was here, and no sports were on…at least not sports we were directly interested in, so he …

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I’ve continued to watch quite a bit of television due to recuperating from surgery. Here are some of the latest things I’ve watched. Most are series. I watched all of these without Arnie, so there are more crime shows and fewer romantic movies. Stay Close:This was from Netflix. It is an adaptation of a Harlan …

What I’m Watching: Tommy Lee Jones and more from Jo's Country Junction

I am still spending quite a bit of time on the couch. Every day it is less and less…but there is plenty of couch time. So that means television time. I had a few suggested movies that I haven’t gotten to. I’m waiting for Arnie, and we’ll watch them together. Lately, we haven’t watched many …

What I’ve Been Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

Television and I have become fast friends. Well, not really. I don’t love television, but since I’ve been laid up, I don’t have much choice. I’ve been loving watching the WNBA end-of-season tournaments. Happily, my Indiana Fever have stayed in there. If there is a game, I’ve been watching. I even admit to watching some …

What We’re Watching: Cabin Version from Jo's Country Junction

When Arnie and I were up at the cabin, we could get Netflix. We ended up watching a few movies in the evenings when there wasn’t a basketball game on. Here is what we watched in no particular order. Ground Hog Day: Initially I thought this movie was going to be stupid. I remember when …

What I’m Watching from Jo's Country Junction

Most of my watch time lately has been watching FlossTube or watching sports with Arnie, the guy I’m dating. We had a rare few hours in between sporting events and Arnie suggested watching a movie. I was game so he picked You’ve Got Mail. I know. It’s crazy that I haven’t watched this movie before. …

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I’m in between college basketball and WNBA basketball. That means I’ve been watching some movies and series. I like whodunits…and I got a couple of really good ones from Harlan Coben. I watched Fool Me Once on Netflix. This was really good. Everyone in the story has their own story. For example…there is a side …

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

Some of the shows/movies I’ve been watching, I’ve watched on my own. Others I watched with Arnie. I watched a series on Netflix called The Perfect Couple. This was an interesting show. A wedding is going to happen when someone in the bridal party ends up dead. The wedding is called off as they try …

Over Christmas Break I watched a few movies with company at my house or with Arnie. Here’s what we watched and my review of them. Killers of the Flower Moon… I had read the book so I knew the story. Karl and I watched this. Posts Karl didn’t make it to the end because the …

What I’ve Been Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I’ve been trying to keep track of what I’ve been watching on television. I know all of you like ideas for shows to watch as much as I like ideas for shows to watch. Nothing makes me sadder than when I finish up an amazing series and have to hunt a new series down. So …

What I’m Watching from Jo's Country Junction

In my last installment of What I’m Watching, I told you about the show On HBO Max Love and Death. At the time I hadn’t finished watching it as it was being released weekly. I finished it and liked it. I like true crime. I wish I knew why. I think because it’s like a… Read More »What I’m Watching

What I’ve Been Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I sat down to watch television and was trying to pick something to watch when I realized it’s been a long time since I’ve done a blog post on what I’ve been watching on television. I’ll be honest…I watch a lot of flosstube. For those new, flosstube in a part of Youtube where cross stitchers …

What I’ve been Watching from Jo's Country Junction

I’ve been stitching quite a bit so that means I’ve had the television on too.  Sometimes I will sit and listen to an audiobook while I stitch but more of the time, it’s the television that’s on.  It’s going to seem like I’ve watched a lot of television but most of these were only 4-6 episodes.

On Netflix, I watched a show called Anatomy of a Scandal.  This one has six episodes and it just flew by.  I don’t think I stitched much while watching this.  I TOTALLY got drug into the drama ...

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I watch so much more television than I did five years ago.  It’s mostly due to cross-stitching.  Television and cross-stitching go really well together.  I stitch and watch so some things escape me but I still catch the storyline and know what happened in the show.

Here are a few things I’ve been watching lately:

First up is The Gulf.  This is set in New Zealand.  I just love shows that are set in other countries as I enjoy the scenery and mannerisms that are different than here in the US.

I watched this on Amazon Prime.  There ...

What I’m Watching… from Jo's Country Junction

I’ve had some time while I was recovering from my thyroid cancer treatment to watch some television.  I know many of you, like me, have trouble finding shows to watch.

For the most part, I love period dramas and enjoy cop shows.  If I can get these in a British format, even better.

One of my favorite cop shows ever is Shetland.  There are 6 in the series and in January, I started back at season one and watched all the way through.  Oh my…I just love this show.

Amazon.com: Shetland Series 1 -5 [DVD] [2019] : Movies & TV
From the beginning to now the characters have evolved ...
