Totally feels that way

Sadly, I agree

I never heard of "winterfest" until BTG mentioned it. That's why I googled and posted about it, because it was an entirely new idea (for me). I guess it's fairly common, but I had no idea until now.

I was googled "Winterfest". That's the name of a variety of festivals held in various locations in US and Canada. Some examples of dates and lengths of time: November 1st - January 1st. December 1st - January 1st a single day in December a week in January a weekend in February It happens during the season of winter, but each community does does it differently. Athletic tournaments, holiday decor, crafts and fairground events. Some of the events are outdoors in the cold and include ice events, with firepits and s'mores to warm up afterwards. Some have ugly sweater contests. Some are Christmas-related but some are not. Other events are entirely indoors and don't relate to winter at all. The variety of winterfests I've found are amazing. This is an interesting idea for BTG, because it doesn't have to be pinned to a specific date, unless the dates are stated by dialogue or printed on props.H The real-life Winterfest in Atlanta, Georgia "Virginia-Highland District Winterfest" 5K run, holiday parade, crafts fair, and a tour of homes December 13-14, 2025 I found these real-life winterfests in DC, Maryland, and Virginia: This is a long list -- putting list behind spoiler tag for the benefit of those who wish to skip the list. As you can see from that list, it can be all different types of events.

Thanks, @JAS0N47!

Goddess!

Canada is still one day ahead. They haven't yet adjusted for not preempting Monday.

This is the most amazing tribute. I watched it all. I cried, I laughed. Even if you never heard of Cleto, watch this! It's so moving.

Hayley never lived with Dani and Bill. That was an assumption that some viewers made at first, understandably. But the dialogue never actually said that. Hayley was an adult friend of Naomi's who would visit Bill&Dani's home, perhaps for Sunday dinner, and maybe other meals, or whatever. She had presented herself to the family as a young adult orphan. (But she was apparently actually older -- due to what we know of the Hayley/Randy convo about their prior history of scam operations). Hayley hung out at Bill & Dani's home, more and more frequently, but never lived there. Hayley wormed her way into being *thought of* as a member of the family, and she got Dani to befriend/mentor her. Characters referenced her being in the heart of the family in such wording that some viewers thought she lived there, or was adopted. But the characters meant that only figuratively. Eventually Dani recommended that Bill hire Hayley at the law office. At some point, while Hayley was visiting, Bill sneaked Hayley into the master bedroom, and they had sex in the bed that he shared with Dani. Throughout his marriage to Dani, Bill had several affairs or hook-ups with various women, which Dani knew about. Dani tolerated it because he never brought the women home. Presumably his cheating was in the office back room, at the ladies' homes, or at hotels, etc. Hayley was the first women he brought into his bed at home. Now that we know Hayley's villainous agenda, I guess that Hayley probably engineered/manipulated Bill into bringing her into his bed at home -- so that Dani would find out and divorce him.

As already posted: while Erika Slezak was in L.A. to film GH, she met with Chris McKenna's family, and also visited Tuc Watkins' home with Roger Howarth. Update that Erika also connected with Mark Derwin (Ben Davidson). Erika had a restaurant dinner with Mark and Mark's longterm partner Toni. https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/general-hospitals-erika-slezak-dishes-reunions-with-former-one-life-to-live-husband-and-son-excl/

Random, but last week, Nurse Shanice on BTG was looking at a medical chart for "Katie Spencer".

Yes the new episode is airing at its usual time on the CTV Drama channel. I guess nobody told them to preempt.
