Absolutely. I arrived home at 9:15 p.m., unfortunately, the ride back was alone. The doctors want to keep my hubby a couple of more days. Bad reaction to a medication. Phooey.

Thank you for all your support and for caring. It means more than you can know.

I prefer a man. I think I have always had the worst haircuts by women. A man can see better, what suites a women's face. And a women can see better, what suits a man's face.

I drive my children mad. Especially driving in Johannesburg. I cut through all the suburbs, to avoid traffic lights and congestion.
It's much quicker. Or do you take the normal route, to where you are going?

There are three of us. Two Australians and myself. They like Australian Rules Football. One's team is Carlton and other supports Collingwood. My team, although the game is sort of a free for all, is Geeling, because my Australian cousins support them.

I, from South Africa, so my winter game, is Rugby Union. I love it. They don't like it. So winter, is very amusing!
Thank goodness when summer comes we all like Cricket, but South Africa and Australia are Arch enemies in cricket. So the heat is on. I love watching the tennis, they don't. Talk about a zoo of games.

A REASON, A SEASON, A LIFETIME

People always come into your life for a reason, a season and a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, or to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or even spiritually. They may seem like a godsend to you, and they are. They are there for a reason, you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die, Sometimes they just walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.

When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But only for a season. And like Spring turns to Summer and Summer to Fall, the season eventually ends.

LIFETIME, relationships teach you a lifetime of lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas in your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank you for being part of my life.....

Subject: clocks
A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, "What are all those clocks?"
St. Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move."
"Oh ," said the man, "whose clock is that?"
"That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie."
"Incredible," said the man. "And whose clock is that one?"
St. Peter responded, "That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire life."
"Where's President Bush's clock?" asked the man.
"Bush's clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a ceiling fan.

I have always loved animals of all types. I have a cat and love him dearly for his unconditional love yet his penchant for humans having to
EARN that love! lol

I find as I get older that my furry roomies are even more important to me than when I was younger! How about you?

My Tony is having a bad day....I awakened this a.m. to him hunched as he walked and his rear was encrusted with the results of loose bowels. I cleaned him with water spray [which to my surprise he didn't resist]. This evening he has a good appetite and is drinking water and is talking to me and is not ' hiding' as animals do when they get ill...but I am worried. If he doesn't improve by tomorrow I will take him in to the doc....This little guy [20 lbs Maine Coon] is my HEART and I can't imagine a day without him!

Share your pet stories with me, please :-)

Did you elope?
As for me, my Dad passed away before my wedding. He had been the Minister who married my brother and he married my sister and her husband as well. Obviously, they had church weddings.

I chose not to have a church wedding and I invited only ten people. I simply did not want anything similar to my siblings as it would have surely, made me sad and wishing it were my Dad officiating my wedding! It was suppose to be a joyful day and so, I eliminated everything traditional!

Simple wedding, at my uncle's home who officiated my wedding....He was my Dad's favorite brother!

Someone else close to me said I was a combination earth mother, goddess and wild child, ok thats cool too if that is how he sees me.

This is about the WOMAN in you, or the MAN in you, not about a professional identity. So WHO is your resident spirit? Does you family know about him/her?

Ladies: a) earth mother b) a goddess c) a wild child d) a cowgirl

Gentlemen: a) a rock star (male diva) b) earth father c) a cowboy d) wild child

When I fetched the parking ticket from the machine today I walked back to what I thought was our car, held the ticket out and said. " Which end shall we start then?" Only to be faced with a complete stranger staring at me as if I was mad, I'd walked to the car parked next to ours by mistake!
Goodness knows what the man thought, I was only meaning should we go to the right end of the town or the left first!
Of course Mr D had to tell the man, he was welcome to take me up on my offer! lmao x

Seniors,

Do you have someone other than your children come in and help with the heavier household chores such as mopping? If so, what type of service do you use? Did you go through Social Security or Medicare to find them?

Thanking you in advance.

The population of this country is 300 million

160 million are retired

That leaves 140 million to do the work.

There are 8.5 million in school.

That leaves 5.5 million to do the work.

Of these, there are 35 million employed by the federal government.

Leaving 15 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama Bin-Laden.

Which leaves 12.2 million to do the work.

Take from that total 10.8 million people who work for the State and City Government. And that leaves 1.4 million people to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.

Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prision.

That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and Me.

And there you are.

Sitting on your azz.

At your computer, reading jokes.

Nice. Real nice.

A cartiologist has a very elaborate funeral, a huge heart covered with flowers was behind the casket, after the eulogy the heart opened and the casket rolled inside. The beautiful heart closed, sealing in the doctor. One of the mourners began to laugh, everyone was staring at him and he stammered and said I'm a gynocologist. Then the proctologist fainted. Smile for the day??
