Cinfhen THANKS everyone ♥️🙏🏼 her goal is to make top 16 and actually get to the finals. Only 19 teams qualified to compete but only 16 will be allowed to skate post elimination rounds. So all your good energy and prayers are MUCH APPRECIATED @marleed @TheAromaofBooks @Chelsea.Poole @TrishB @JennyM @IndoorDame @kathedron @LeahBergen @rockpools @squirrelbrain 3y
Cinfhen Thanks @Megabooks 😘 3y
Verity Oh! Big figure skating fan here and I think seen them on the tv! I‘m not going to say the surnames because you haven‘t - but they‘re in the pairs (my favourite) and her partner has skated at the Olympics before with a previous partner right? 3y
Cinfhen Yes @Verity !!!! This is his third Olympic appearance and my niece‘s first. They only began skating together in June and they made the qualifiers after 3 months of training. It‘s such a Cinderella story. Ice Dance seems to have more behind the scenes drama but I prefer the throws and lifts. So glad to hear you‘re a pairs fan. Which team/ teams do you like?? (edited) 3y
DivineDiana Will be cheering for Hailey! Let the games begin! 👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻 3y
Hooked_on_books That‘s incredible! Go Hailey! 3y
Cinfhen Something fun to focus on @Hooked_on_books @DivineDiana ⛸🥇♥️ 3y
Verity @Cinfhen that‘s such an amazing achievement for them both. I will be watching them and cheering them on! I‘m in the Uk so I‘ve seen more of the European pairs this season than I have the rest of the world, but my current favourites are Sui and Han and Tarasova and Morosov. I have such a soft spot for Russian pairs - my all time faves are Voloszhar and Trankov (who I saw live at the Europeans a decade ago) - still think their 14 sp is genius. 3y
Cinfhen Agree, Tarasova/Morosov are excellent and Sui/Han are VERY graceful. Both teams are medal contenders, for sure. I used to like Vanessa James but now that she skates for Canada I‘m less impressed & she‘s had a TERRIBLE season. I‘m not a fan of the US qualifying teams either, I much prefer Audrey Lu. Everyone who made it deserves to be there and I‘m excited to cheer my niece on @Verity 🥳🥳🥳 3y
Verity @Cinfhen I used to like Vanessa James too, but I think her move to Canada has been handled terribly on every possible front and the more you hear about how her previous partner‘s behaviour was handled, the dodgier all of that sounds and the worse she looks. 3y

Am I the only one whose "Reading time" has taken a back seat to the Olympics? #USA #winterolympics

Erinsuereads I‘ve literally had a book sitting on my lap for over an hour and haven‘t touched it. The Super G has me riveted right now. 7y
Madamereginald @ErinSueG ditto! I'm glad I'm not the only one! :) 7y
brilliantglow Same haha I think I've read one chapter from Alice in Wonderland since the Olympics opened. 7y

GarthRanzz We have them playing in the background while reading. But I find myself looking up more than I should be. 7y
Madamereginald @brilliantglow I even bought new books Friday afternoon that I was excited to start...I still haven't started them..haha 7y
Madamereginald @GarthRanzz I think I'd end up reading the same sentences over and over..lol 7y
brilliantglow The Olympics are so frigging distracting lol Sunday I bought a bunch of books and I barely managed to get them onto my shelves. It literally took me 4 hours to do a 10 minute task. 😐 so distracting 7y
Madamereginald @brilliantglow hahaha...aren't we glad they only happen every 2 years... 7y
brilliantglow So glad. For the sake of reading😂😂 7y
