Wednesday, March 10 – Forest Whitaker (“Our Family Wedding”); Jesse Ventura (author, American Conspiracies).

Friday, March 12 – Co- Host Kate Gosselin is back and will join the women and the return of “The View: Fashion Friday” with designer Carolina Herrera.

I missed Monday's Oscar recap, but honestly I missed most of the Oscars for the first time in about 25 YEARS!!!!!  Let's not even talk about how many of the films I have not seen.

I hope not to miss Susan Kim or Sir Elton, but if Friday at 11 a.m. comes along and I have to clean a toilet then I will just have to clean a toilet.  I'm not sure I can handle an hour of Kate Gosselin.  Sorry to those who love her ;)

I am a participant in a Mom Central campaign for ABC Daytime and will receive a tote bag or other The View branded items to facilitate my review.

I'm a Brand Ambassador for The View!

I love The View.  I gave birth during The View.  How many people can say that?  The View is the ONE daytime show I will allow myself to watch and it's only because I feel I get an equal amount of celebrity gossip and fluff, and up-to-the-minute current events.

So, when I had the opportunity to apply to be a Brand Ambassador for the show that appeared on the tiny hospital TV in the corner as I pushed my nine pound, five ounce bundle of joy out of my body, I had to at least try!  And guess what?  They picked me!

I'm not sure how long prior to that February morning in 2004 that I had been a View viewer.  And yes, there were times when I was employed full-time out of the house that it just wasn't possible to tune in every day.  But now I can, and I usually do.  Today we heard more proof of John Mayer's toolness, and how freaky "sexting" can be- with life long consequences.  All that followed by Dr. Bailey herself!  Even my darling hubby watched along with me, and he feels Whoopi is doing a fantastic job.

On Wednesday, Posh... err.... Victoria Beckham is co-hosting.  The ladies will welcome Oscar nominee James Cameron.  I'll be watching, I don't plan on having any more babies during the broadcast, but I'll be watching. 

The View Brand Ambassador program is facilitated by Mom Central, and through February 28 you can enter Mom Central's sweepstakes where one lucky winner will be randomly selected to receive a trip to New York City to watch a taping of The View!  Click here for your chance to win!
