    Re: threed ov novemba

    Mae all -

    I perked up after starting the laundry, and ended up getting a good bit done yesterday... even figured out another trick to get my clothes into our minuscule closet.

    Mick, thanks for the political jokes especially, it helps to remember that this nonsense has been going on for centuries, if not eons. Love the pick of the pheasant! Did you here it's call? I love their funny call - my dad used to have a wooden "caller" for hunting, I thought it was a great toy... congrats on all the painting... you are always busy.

    And speaking of always busy, Lav, wow, that was a lot going on yesterday! Good luck as you get ready for this fair - can the boys be put to work getting everything in the car? Good luck with it all, and I hope it all sells!

    Pauly, how's the weather there? Any cooling going on? We are getting cooler here, and it's OK by me ... seems like it has been way too warm for tow ong here...

    PPQ, great job taking over for the boss... on the other hand, when don't you? Glad that you were able to put in a full day, that must feel good. I second Lav's warning about the osteo meds... really bad news, even though the docs push them. There are other options. Meanwhile, carry on with the healing , and whatever you do, forget the laundry and the vacuuming!

    Det and Sam hello, and hope all is good for you.

    May we be well --

      big hello to everyone else ..

      I called my boss and told him I couldn't make it to work today because the wind had blown leaves onto my car in the night.

      "So? Just wipe them off." he said.

      "Well, they're still attached to the tree." I replied.

      My son recently came back from Thailand with the sex-change finally done.

      I asked him, "What have you changed your name to now ?" and he swished back "Amanda."

      Even he got livid though and seemed to go right off it when I instantly replied, "Oh right, I get it... A Man, Duh !"

      A guy was nailing his interview when the employer said “well you look great but I see here there was a 7 year gap since your last job, what happened there?”.
      The guy says “oh I went to yale”.
      The employer: “oh great!! Well you’re hired, you start monday”
      Guy: “Yay! I got a yob!”

      I spotted an albino dalmatian today.
      Well, it was what it needed.

      I asked my son, "Why did you punch your sister ?"

      "She was playing Christmas music in November," he replied.

      "You should've used a baseball bat," I said.

      People are already complaining about Christmas music and decorations..
      SO...I'm already drunk for saint Patricks day.

      "London mayor Sadiq Khan to spend £1.7m on water fountains instead of police"

      I tend to agree: a water fountain won't fit you up for an imaginary crime or throw you down the stairs.

        Re: threed ov novemba

        Greetings folks,

        This day has totally gotten away from me, funny when that happens. I have so much to do that I’m basically triaging things - some sh*t can just wait, haha! There will be no housework until sometime next week I think, haha!
        The boys did fine last evening, no blood drawn so I consider that a win!!!! The older one is considering going with me on Saturday so I’m waiting to hear back from him. He’s actually fairly helpful at these events, Lol

        PQ, smart move at work yesterday. The bosses have no idea what’s going on for the most part anyway.
        A little background for you - there was no such diagnosis as ‘osteoporosis’ until the 70’s. It was assumed that brittle bones & fractures were a part of aging. The pharmaceutical companies ‘invented’ the disease because they had developed ‘treatments’. Little did they know their treatments would cause monumental side effects including atypical femur fractures, jaw bone necrosis & other lovely things.
        I’ll get you the info for the bone healthy program I’ve been following with zero side effects. It’a all about balancing your diet with alkaline foods, exercise, taking plant based calcium, etc.

        Cyn, I feel bad about your closet space. My closet is big & mostly empty, that’s fine with me. YB has all his stuff in closets across the hall, perfect with me.
        I have discovered with these craft fairs that I am happy with a few sales because people end up taking my card & contact me at a later date for things. I also send them to my FB page of embroidered stuff. So it’s all good

        Mick, we’re getting a light rain tonight followed by some very cold weather. Seems a little early but what can you do?
        It’s funny living with all the wildlife running about. It took me a few years to get used to all the night sounds around here. They were kinda freaky at first.
        YB is fine, hasn’t gotten his biopsy results yet, it’s been a week & a day.

        Hello to Det, Sam & Pauly.

        Have a nice night all.
        Lav

          MAE ALL...

          Pauly....hola to you too. LOL Hope you had a great BF Thursday.

          TG..."even figured out another trick to get my clothes into our minuscule closet"...of course you did. LOL I'll also head your advice and forget the laundry and the vacuuming! Glad you're feeling better.

          Mick...bridge on prescription would be great! Of course our new premier would probably cut it. You know I love brussel sprouts but brussel sprout flavoured chips...I don't think so. You are a brave man...takes me forever to go to the dentist and to turn around and go the next day, wouldn't happen. Is all the rest of the dental work finished? Don't I recall that you chipped/broke an implant? We experienced a heat wave today, lots of melting, and the same forecast for tomorrow. Saturday will bring a snowstorm and freezing temps lasting through the weekend, so I'll take your rain instead.

          Lav...surprised you haven't posted but I understand, you had to hide the bodies. LOL Get ready, there's a wicked cold front coming your way.

          I've been so busy that I've completely forgotten that the boss is away all next week. Early Christmas present for me. LOL Have a great evening all...:smile:PPQP

                Ed Sheeran has revealed that he's related to notorious Mafia hitman Frank Sheeran.
                He added, "I'm nothing like him though, he was known for butchering his rivals".

                Really Ed! You made a fcking good job of butchering Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here.

                Solar eclipses have intrigued humans for hundreds of years. The next one in the UK will be on August 12th 2026, a special date. On this day the Sun will black out as the Moon passes in front of it to make a shadow which will cover most of the UK. Such black outs are often described as truly amazing awe inspiring natural phenomenon.
                Yet when I black out in the urinal of the local Wetherspoon’s pub, the only media attention I get is extremely negative, not at all helpful and definitely unscientific.

                I asked my wife what she would like for her birthday. She said surprise me, so I phoned her from Cape Town

                £1 million worth of sex toys have been stolen from a lorry in Portsmouth.

                Just bought a real live Turkey off the local farmer and called it Corbyn.
                “Why Corbyn” asked the kids.

                “Because it’s going to get stuffed before Xmas” I sneered.


                I went to my local market today and saw a sign that said: "ONE WATERMELON FOR $3 OR THREE FOR $10"

                Instead of telling the guy behind the stall how stupid he was I decided to show him.

                So I walked up to him and asked: "Can I buy a watermelon please?"

                "Yes sir, that'll be three dollars."

                I handed over the money and asked: "Actually, can I have another one please?"

                "No problem sir, that's another three dollars."

                "Can I have one more?"

                "Certainly sir, three more dollars please."

                Smirking I said: "I've just bought three watermelons for nine dollars but on your sign it says ten. Don't you realise how stupid you are?"

                "That happens a lot," he chuckled, "until I point out that you just bought three watermelons instead of one."

                My dog kept chasing people on a bike.

                Then he just sat in the garden and barked all day.
                So we gave him his bike back.
                Because his bark was worse than his bike.


                Couldn't it believe my flat-mate got fired from his job as a road worker for stealing.
                Just did not believe it however when I got home the signs were everywhere !!!

                A young and foolish pilot wanted to sound cool on the aviation frequencies.

                So, this was his first time approaching a field during the nighttime. Instead of making any official requests to the tower, he said: "Guess who"?

                The controller switched the field lights off and replied: "Guess where"?

                A helicopter carrying passengers suddenly looses engine power and the aircraft begins to decent.

                The pilot safely performs an emergency landing in water, and tells the passengers to remain seated and to keep the doors closed, stating that in emergency situations, the aircraft is designed to stay afloat for 30 minutes, giving rescuers time to get to them.

                Just then a man gets out if his seat and runs over to open the door.

                The pilots screams at him, "Didn't you hear what I said, the aircraft is designed to stay afloat as long as the doors remain closed"?!.

                "Of course I heard you", the man replied, "but it's also designed to fly, and look how good that one worked out"!!!

                A young girl started work in the village chemist shop. She was very shy about having to sell condoms to the public.

                The owner was going on holiday for a couple of days and asked if she would be willing to run the shop on her own.

                She had to confide in him her worries about selling the contraceptives.

                "Look," he said. "My regular customers don’t ask for condoms, they'll ask for a 310 [small] a 320[medium] or a 330[large]. The word condom won’t even be used.

                The first day was fine but on the second day a guy came in to the shop, put out his hand and said "350"..

                The girl panicked. She ran outside, phoned the owner on his mobile and told him of her predicament.

                "Go back in and check if he has a yellow bucket hanging between his legs," her boss told her.

                She peeped through the door and saw the yellow bucket hanging between his legs.

                "Yes!!!" she said " He's got one hanging there"....!

                The boss said ..................................





                "Go back in and give him £3.50......................He's the bloody Window Cleaner"!!!!!!!

                  Re: threed ov novemba

                  Good evening Abbers,

                  I’m all set for tomorrow, phew! I hope a million people show up for this craft show, haha!!
                  It’s downright cold here & we even had snow flurries this morning!!! Next wee’s long range forecast is calling for temps of -18 F. OMG! I’ll have to find that little space heater for the chicken house, that’s just ridiculously cold.

                  Pauly, I’ve used vitamin C & echinacea to boost my immune system years ago when I felt like I was getting sick too often, they really helped.
                  I think this killer frost we’re getting should take care of all the allergens.

                  PQ, have fun while the boss is away, yay!
                  I will send you a link in messenger for the bone health website. I firmly believe & trust in all the research there. I trust nothing put out by a pharmaceutical company.

                  Mick, that roadway looks a little rough to drive on, haha! I was imagining myself bouncing around in the pickup truck.
                  I sure hope the rain lets up &V the roads dry out for you. I’m not a fan of icy roads. Keep those bunnies warm!

                  Hello to Cyn & Det!

                  Wishing everyone a nice night!

                    Could not get my laptop to boot up when I got home from work yesterday so wasn't able to post. It's been touch and go this morning, booting up for a few minutes then freezing. Think it's time to take advantage of those pre Christmas sales and get a new one. If the laptop behaves I'll be back to properly post....:smile:PPQP

                      hiya tree girl and hows you then?ok I hope .

                      a few jokes.


                      Got all my Christmas shopping done already

                      Hope everyone likes Halloween costumes

                      I love the way my nine year old son is preparing for adulthood and it's pitfalls. He spent all his pocket money on a dolls house and gave it his little girlfriend next door saying,

                      "Here you might as well have a house now instead of taking one off me in twenty years. "

                      I want to say eiderdowns are superior to quilts.

                      But I don’t like to make blanket statements.

                      Wife and I decided to get a pet dog for a variety of reasons. We attended a ‘homeless dogs shelter’ and eventually adopted a spirited German shepherd. He immediately took to the grand children and loved to join in their rough and tumble. He also enjoyed long walks and chasing cats. Unfortunately, as we later discovered, he came with a dark secret.
                      When we got him he was advertised as a rescue dog so we rescued him from the dog shelter. Turns out he actually was a rescue dog, having been trained to find missing people.
                      The third week we had him, the phone went at three in the morning and he was ‘called out’ to find a missing holiday maker on the fells. As his new owner I had to go with him. It was very windy, pssing down and cold. That dog could and did search for hours, eventually finding the missing man. On the way back he even managed to find me !

                      He’s going back to the shelter next week.

                      Two Buddies Fishing

                      ...but they haven’t caught anything all day. Just then another fisherman walks by with a huge load of fish. They ask him "excuse me, but where did you get all those fish"?

                      The other fisherman replies, "If you just go down the stream until the water isn't salty, there are a ton of hungry fish".

                      Both mates thank him and go start to walk further up the stream.

                      Twenty minutes later, the first fisherman says to his mate "fill the bucket up with water and see if the water is salty".

                      Second mate dips the bucket in the stream and drinks some and says "Nope. Still salty".

                      Thirty minutes later the first mate asks his mate to check again.

                      Second mate says "Nope, still salty".

                      An hour later first mate asks to check again.

                      Second mate says "Nope. Still salty".

                      First mate says "I don't understand this at all, we have been walking for almost two hours, and the water is still salty"!

                      Second mate says "I know, I can't understand it either and the bucket is almost empty"!

                      A month later he returned to the dealer for another hundred chickens because all of the first lot had died.

                      Another month went by and the young lawyer returned again for another hundred chickens because the second lot had also died.

                      The chicken salesman was very alarmed at the new farmer's string of bad luck; besides if word got around town, others might think the quality of his chickens was poor and that would be disastrous for business. So he asked the part-time farmer, "So do you think you are having a string of bad luck or just what seems to be your problem"?

                      "I think I now have a sense of where I'm going wrong", said the young lawyer and now nearly a full-time farmer. "I think I might be planting my chickens just a little bit too deep".

                      20 Rules of Life Updated
                      I can only please one person each day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow is not looking good either.

                      Tell me what you need, and I'll tell you how to get along without it.

                      Accept that some days you are the pigeon and some days the statue.

                      You can go anywhere you want if you look serious, wear a white coat and carry a clipboard.

                      I love deadlines.
                      I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.

                      Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky, and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling?

                      Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If they aren't there the first time, chances are you won't be needing them again.

                      I don't have an attitude problem, you have a perception problem.
                      My reality check bounced.

                      On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key.

                      I don't suffer from stress. I am a carrier.

                      Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.

                      Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

                      A pat on the back is only a few centimetres from a kick in the butt.

                      After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.

                      Eat one live toad the first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.

                      People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't.

                      If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done.

                      When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.

                      When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"

                      We will continue to have meetings until we figure out why nothing is being accomplished.

                            Aaargh, just lost a post when I went to find a link to a recipe, oh dear. All is well here, yesterday I put in a long day getting boxes of papers and misc electronics, etc sorted. Done and dusted.

                            Lav, congrats on your sales - will try to look for your site on FB!

                            PPQ, I drove through snow showers the other day as I went up north - temps are dipping here, ouch. Stay well and warm!

                            Pauly, yep, sounds like you need to do a bit of work on your immune system. I got better quickly - used vitamin C, echinacea tea, goldenseal caps, and a Wellness formula blend that works for me... it's all up to what you can tolerate, but it's better than a cold! Take care!

                            Mick, good luck with the cold and wet - not my favorite! Glad the bunnies get hot water bottles!

                            Hello to Busy Det and Sam and all others...

                            Happy Sunday and good wishes for the week ahead.
