    LOL, I got dressed, but every (5) people wanted a shower with in a 45 minute time frame, so looks like I will be waiting for hot water. Alty, I am clean I promise! :)Plus the house cleaning needs to be done and the laundry so it is better if I wait till it is all done!:)

    Looks like I am going to make it through another day though! That is good huh?:):)

    I know how you feel, I'm always stuck with the cold water, I need hot water today. House cleaning and laundry, they're ongoing here, never ending, so sad.

    Making it through another day is always a good thing, whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, man are we strong. :)

    Alty you are so right, we are strong!

    Chery, I saw this this morning and thought you may like it, it is sort of a cintinuation but mostly, just plain ole' good stuuff!



    Will Rogers, who died in a plane crash with Wylie Post in 1935, was probably the greatest political sage this country has ever known. Enjoy the following:

    1. Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.

    2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

    3. There are 2 theories to arguing with a
    Woman... neither works.

    4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.

    5. Always drink upstream from the herd.

    6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

    7. The most quick way to double your money is to fold
    It and put it back in your pocket.

    8. There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn
    By reading; the few who learn by observation; the rest
    Of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out
    For themselves.

    9. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of
    That comes from bad judgment.

    10. If you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look
    Back every now and then to make sure it's still there.

    11. Lettin' the cat out of the bag is a whole lot
    Easier'n puttin' it back.

    12. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt
    So good he started roaring. He kept it up until a
    Hunter came along and shot him.
    The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

    ABOUT GROWING OLDER...

    First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you
    Stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

    Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

    Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers.
    Not me, I want people to know 'why' I look this way.
    I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't
    Paved.

    Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to
    Go back to youth, think of Algebra.

    Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything
    Either dries up or leaks.

    Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without
    Getting to the top.

    Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you
    About aging is that it is such a nice change from
    Being young.

    Eighth ~ One must wait until evening to see how
    Splendid the day has been.

    Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

    Tenth ~ Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground
    With sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's
    Called golf.

    And finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble,
    You won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.

    That comes from bad judgment.

    Firmy these were actually my faves... we think a lot alike.

    I did like many of them, I wish there were more manners and more people who thought like this, instead, we have selfish, rude, and un caring people! GOSH DARN IT!
    Not all but you know who they are when you come across them.:)

    Wow, start.. I really liked your post. I think everyone resonates with me for a different reason. I think number 9 really applies to me, lol.. Also the one with keeping your mouth closed shut when you are full of bull. Ha ha..
    I definitely think its important to never miss a good chance to shut up..
    I guess getting older is more comfortable than being young, except when are standing next to a 5'8 blonde who is 19 and weighs 110 pounds.. ha ha ha jk

    O M G Start... this made me laugh so hard that I have to dry my eyes and change my undies. LMAO!

    Now I know why Alexander's dad is a golfer... HaHaHa..

    %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

    I just love and missed all of you this past week. The doctors changed my meds and I now have opiate patches - they make me want to barf and give me a hangover worse than the real ones I had when I drank 25 years ago. I hate the feeling, but you guys really make me feel better. Thanks a bunch!

    I promise you I won't let anything drag me down, honest. I still have my sense of humor.

    Hi Shattered... how have you been doing? That is just such a cute picture on your avatar.. do you have a bigger one for my collection? Gosh, just so cuddly!

    You, my dear can be as silly as you want, and you better be darned proud of it too.

    It is better than being ignorant and rude... and some people make the wrong choices in character - we know who they are, so we on this thread are also part of the 'Silly Club' and proud of it! And, as you said, - not far to go - which is just comfy enough for me cause I'm done with physical travels. HaHa.

    I fully comprehend dear.. I love a good laugh at my expense, that's why I initiate them instead of letting others get a headstart. I feel that as long as I have my sense of humor, I'm good to go - and nobody can take that away from me. Laughter just make one feel good for a while - and we all can use that at least once a day.

    Oh yes! If I couldn't have a good laugh at my own expense, I don't know what else I would be laughing at! I'm all for the good endorphines, in whatever shape and form they come to me! Hehe!

    It's not worthwhile if you can't find the humour somewhere right? ;)
  • Apr 23, 2008, 11:15 AM
    Chery
    So right Starbuck...

    I always think there is something wrong with people who cannot laugh and just get loose now and then. Cannot imagine life without laughter or music and I appreciate the talent of people who have provided these two joys in my life.

    And those endorphines - the best medicine ever - and it's free!
