    There once was a pirate who had a peg leg, a hook on his left hand, and a patch on his left eye. One day this pirate walked into a pub and sat down at the table beside a cabin boy. The cabin boy looks at him and said, "Hey mate, what happened to your leg, sir?" The pirate looked at him and said "AYE, I was leaning over to clean the side of me boat when I FELL into the water and a shark tore it off!" The cabin boy took a sip of his drink and looked back at the pirate's gleaming silver hook and said "Gee sir that sounds terrible, but what I would really like to know is what happened to yer hand?" The Pirate looked at him and looked back at his mug of ale and said," Aye, I was boarding another ship when some scaly landlubber cut it off with a razor sharp blade!"

    Then the cabin boy looked at the pirates eye patch and asked, "Excuse me sir, but just one more question, what happened to your eye, I must know, oh please tell me?" The Pirate look kind of annoyed but answered anyway, he said, "It happened a long time ago when a seagull pooped in me eye and I tried to rub it out with me hook!"

    Hi everyone... where are you? I haven't seen anyone in here in a couple of days!

    Welp... here is a cute email I got today... describes me to the "T"... heeheehee


    Especially for the Ladies !

    PHILOSOPHY OF HOUSECLEANING!


    I don't do windows because...

    I love birds and
    Don't want one to run into a clean window
    And get hurt.

    I don't wax floors because...
    I am terrified a guest will slip and get hurt
    Then I'll feel terrible
    ( plus they may sue me.)


    I don't mind the dust bunnies because...
    They are very good company,
    I have named most of them,
    And they agree with everything I say.


    I don't disturb cobwebs because .
    I want every creature to have a home of their own.


    I don't Spring Clean because .
    I love all the seasons
    And don't want the others to get jealous


    I don't pull weeds
    In the garden because..
    I don't want to get
    In God's way,
    HE is an excellent designer!


    I don't put things away because .
    My husband
    Will never be able to find them again.


    I don't do gourmet meals
    When I entertain because .
    I don't want my guests to
    Stress out over what to make when
    They invite me over for dinner.


    I don't iron because...
    I choose to believe them
    When they say "Permanent Press".


    I don't stress much on anything because...
    "A Type" personalities die young and
    I want to stick around
    And become a wrinkled up crusty ol' woman!!

    Hiya Stringer! Things are going okey dokey around here ;) The roof won't get replace until the end of next month (or sometime around that), but the point is: it is getting replaced... right? Lol

    I have had company for the last couple of days... and it made me so grateful for Colton. He is such a good and big and respectful boy... and I am VERY lucky to have such a great kid. We had two boys (2.5 and 4.5) and their mom here destroying my little abode! But it is a cleared and peaceful again, and I get my puter time after work.. woo hooo... ahhhhh, my medicine ;)

    We are shopping for redecorating and painting now. I am heavily leaning towards painting and/or staining the concrete... cheapest and very popular right now, also good for resale :)



    So... what's up with you and Marta? Still having your evening walks? Any good trips coming up? Do tell :)


    EDIT::
    Hey Bear!!

    Thanks and bless you dear.

    When I'm with you guys (my cyber-family) I feel perfectly at home and warm. I noticed that we also have the same tastes, i.e. coffee (started drinking it again after 20 years - and like different flavors), spam, and fish, and chili and beans (don't we Stringer?).. I have to say though, I never could get into grits - cream of wheat is more my style - with cinamon and sugar.

    Been a bit stormy here lately and the electricity went off a few times - I felt as if my right arm was cut off when I couldn't get on the site.. Then it took even longer for my pay TV site to get on again.. good thing I recorded a few progs before so that I had something to watch. I thought I'd check out a program called 'Judge John Deed' on BBC - guess what.. it was absolutely SUPER! Now I'm addicted to this and 'Spooks' and wish they would come on every day... Becoming a couch potato at my age, and having a ball - since I can't sleep nights (average of 1 1/2 hours a day only) I have to fill the time with something. I guess the older I get, the less sleep I need - strange. The days are OK with two groups a week, but the nights - well I've got my TV going again...

    My cat has had so much stress due to the storms and I hope they settle down soon, the poor baby.

    Going to be busy for a few days, so I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend!

    TTFN,

    Goodnight Bear, have a good weekend.

    R... The way to a man's heart... stomach.

    And Chery, what can I say about my Cheri'? Well I have a hanker'n for those beans and chili and baked beans with that American cheese... hmmmm. I had an Italian beef about a half hour ago with... you know beans and cheese... It is filling and I am about to close my eyes. Don't quite understand that... full stomach... eyes want to close... love you.

    Hello Stringer, I'm back for a bit. My agenda today, clean, clean, clean, oh and did I mention, clean? Yup, I'm in cleaning mode, not because I want to, but I have to. Messy people. ;)

    Bad Stringer, my motiviation is already lacking, don't need help in that area. ;) ;)

    I'd love to crawl back in to bed, but the kids won't let me, and either will the mess. I need a cleaning lady, actually it would be easier to move and start from scratch. ;)

    What's on your agenda today dear Stringer?
  • Jun 7, 2008, 09:56 AM

    Well... I think I will get an ice cold Coors, some potato chips, a good paperback thriller, go out on my patio, move the big umbrella over me and lay back on one of my chaise lounges. Then Marta wants me to take her shopping for some new clothes and shoes for her... go wonder?

    And what's up with you? It's too nice out...
  • Jun 7, 2008, 10:09 AM

    It's not that nice out over here, a bit windy, cloudy and wanting to rain. I could use some new clothes and shoes, can I come with? Let's see, if I get on the plane right now I could be there, oh, some time tomorrow? ;)

    Cleaning day, and the perfect weather for it. Oh, hubby isn't feeling well either, so I have to take care of him. Big baby. ;)
