    got both rabbits in the house ..its poring with rain,one is in the garage the other in the sunroom!!got up this morning,rabbits thumping in the hutch outside,and a pair of ducks quacking in the field..they have now adopted me as their feeder..so in the morning to feed ...Julie,rabbits ,ducks...just make sure I get the order right..

    right peeps time to go...so have a great weekend everyone

    I love to pamper my wife after she's had a stressful day at work. I get her to text me when she's leaving so I can get the hot tap running, swirl around the foam and bubbles and time everything perfectly so that, the moment she walks through the door, the dishes are piled up and waiting for her...

    At breakfast this morning, my wife said she's leaving me because of my obsession with Twitter.
    I almost choked on my #Brown

    Two hillbillies walk into a restaurant. While having a bite to eat, they talk about their moonshine operation. Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table, who is eating a sandwich, begins to cough.

    After a minute or so, it becomes apparent that she is in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks at her and says, "Kin ya swallar?" The woman shakes her head no. Then he asks, "Kin ya breathe?" The woman begins to turn blue, and shakes her head no.

    The hillbilly walks over to the woman, lifts up her dress, yanks down her drawers, and quickly gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue.
    The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm, and the obstruction flies out of her mouth.

    As she begins to breathe again, the Hillbilly walks slowly back to his table. His brother said, "Ya know, I'd heerd of that there Hind Lick Maneuver but I ain't niver seed nobody do it!"

    A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.
    "Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."
    Pattie looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.
    Pattie explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall - bright pink and perfectly formed.
    Very confused, Pattie explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral."
    She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?"
    .............
    ...........
    ..........
    Wait for the punch line !!
    ............
    ........
    ......
    ....
    The bank manager looks back at her and says. "It's a knick-knack, Pattie Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone

    My old mums always complaining about the price of things,
    "£1.50 for cup of tea 75p for a custard cream"
    I said"you popped round I never invited you

    Just been watching the news and apparently police are holding three men over a fire in West London...
    Bit harsh, I wonder what they've done

    I went to the doctors yesterday with hearing problems he said,"Can you describe the symptoms?..I said yeah,"Homers a fat git,and Marge has blue hair.....
    af since the fourth of July 2012...howzat then America..now proudly marching into year 12

    Morning Mick, Fair to say the pace has picked up in my world, though mostly in good ways. I had a fun experience last weekend when I walked into a pet store to find a Halloween Fest going on. Was greeted at the door by costumed canines, and received a goody bag to hold all of the samples being given out around the store. Played a bean bag toss game, and received prizes even though I didn't sink a single bag. Registered for a raffle, and won a big bag of premium dog food. What is it about winning a raffle that produces glee out of all proportion to the value of the prize?

    Pauly, I can SO relate to your tale of the child jumping out of your chair. I had a similar experience involving a dog I'm caring for, and ended up going for emergency xrays. Thankfully nothing broken, but brought me to my knees with worry.

    My dad is thriving in his current set living with the caregiver. Much to be thankful for, except the multiple daily phone calls that he places to me when he's feeling good. Dad's vision and hearing are great, but his speaking ability is seriously impaired due to past strokes. Being on the phone with him requires enormous patience.

    Greetings to Sam, Lav, PQ, Det, TT, and all others who pass this way.

        MAE ALL...

        Mick...Ta for starting us off. Too bad the inlaws won't see a Dr. Do they live on their own? We run an Alzheimer's Support Meeting here at work twice a month for the clients and their support team. It can be exhausting. I'm sure Julie will find lots of information out there. So now you're starting spoil the ducks as well eh?

        Pi...sounds like you scored big time by just walking into that pet store. Such fun. That would be ENORMOUS PATIENCE!! I have a neighbour that had a stroke and it effected his speech as well. He would call because he had a computer problem and after 20 minutes of him trying to tell me what the problem was I'd say just hang on I'll be right over. Easier to see what was wrong than try to figure out what he was saying. Glad he's thriving though, I remember your journey getting to this point.

        Glad it's Friday, we're headed to 68F today. Unbelievable! Other than the job interview tomorrow plan to spend time with good friends and family and the word should has been deleted from my memory LOL.....:smile:PPQP

        X-post Starty....morning to you too.

                Good evening Abbers,

                Somehow it's 9 pm already, geez!
                I woke up in a craptacular mood this morning but feel much better now, thank goodness Ha Ha!!!
                Time changes, daylight changes, family drama, etc, etc, etc.

                Mick, you must have some nearby water source if you have ducks hanging around, cool!
                I think my biggest worry for people with dementia is safety. I mean everything from falls to getting lost to screwing up medications to accidently setting fires in the kitchen. Do you think you could ever convince them to move onto an assisted care facility? They can have their own apartment like living quarters but everything else is managed in a safe way.

                Pie, you have had some excitement lately but good stuff. Glad to hear your dad is settled.
                Those glasses bring back some memories, huh? Never going there again

                Pauly, glad Michelle is safe & sound. Now maybe you can relax a bit?
                My dogs are willing to wear reindeer antlers at Christmas but they draw the line at Halloween costumes, ha ha!

                Not much else happening so I'll wish everyone a peaceful night!
