Who Wins? Man or Woman??? Do Tell

One day, Harry and Sarah were having a petty argument.

After shouting back and forth, Sarah finally says, "Let's make a deal. To end this argument, you admit that I am right and I will admit that I am wrong."Harry thought for a moment, agreed, and asked her to go first.

Sarah replied, "I'm sorry Harry, I am wrong."

In response, Harry shouts happily, "You're right!"

Are You Having a Bad Day??

THINK YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DAY....?

( check out these actual cases: )

Fire authorities in California found a corpse in a burned-out sectionof forest while assessing the damage done by a forest fire. The deceased male was dressed in a full wet suit, complete with scuba
tanks on his back, flippers, and face mask.A postmortem test revealed that the man died not from burns, butfrom massive internal injuries. Dental records provided a positiveidentification. Investigators then set about to determine how a fully clothed diver ended up in the middle of a forest fire. It was revealed that on the day of the fire, the man went diving off the coast, some 20 miles from the forest. The fire fighters, seeking to control the fire as quickly as possible, had called in a fleet of helicopters with very large dip buckets. Water was dipped from the ocean and emptied at the site of the forest fire. You guessed it. One minute our diver was making like Flipper in the Pacific, the next, he was doing the breast stroke in a fire dip bucket 300 feet in the air.

Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.

Still thinking you're having a bad day?


A man was working on his motorcycle on the patio, his wife nearbyin the kitchen. While racing the engine, the motorcycle accidentally slipped into gear. The man, still holding onto the handlebars, was dragged along as it burst through the glass patio doors. His wife, hearing the crash, ran in the room to find her husband cut and bleeding, the motorcycle and the shattered patio door.She called for an ambulance and, because the house sat on a fairlylarge hill, she went down the several flights of stairs to meet theparamedics and escort them to her husband. While the attendants
were loading her husband, the wife managed to right the motorcycle and push it outside. She also quickly blotted up the spilled gasoline with some paper towels and tossed them into the toilet.

After being treated and released, the man returned home, looked atthe shattered patio door and the damage done to his motorcycle.He went into the bathroom and consoled himself with a cigarettewhile attending to his business. About to stand, he flipped the butt between his legs. The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her husband screaming. Finding him lying on the bathroom floor with his trousers blown away and burns on his buttocks, legs and groin, she once again phoned for an ambulance.The same paramedic crew was dispatched. As the paramedics carried the man down the stairs to the ambulance they asked the wife how he had come to burn himself. She told them. They started laughing so hard, one slipped, dropping the stretcher and dumping the husband out. He fell down the remaining stairs, breaking his arm.

Just remember, it could be worse...The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez oilspill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony, two of the mostexpensively saved animals were being released back into the wildamid cheers and applause from onlookers.. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.

A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen shakingfrantically, almost in a dancing frenzy, with some kind of wirerunning from his waist towards the electric kettle. Intending to jolt
him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy plank of wood, breaking his arm in two places. Up to that moment,
he had been happily listening to his Walkman.

Being A Woman (So True)

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs,they call me a bitch.

When I stand up for those I love,they call me a bitch.

When I speak my mind,think my own thoughts or do things my own way,they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.

It means I live my life MY way.

It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it,I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid,or when I act a little selfish.It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!So try to stomp on me,try to douse my inner flame,try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.You won't succeed.And if that makes me a bitch, so be it.I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

I did OK

With the driving yesterday. But then the roads were clear.. Now that I can handle. But I did have a Doctors appointment this morning that I had to cancel due to bad weather here.. I was not thrilled about that. But now I got to wait until March 10th unless I get lucky and they call me and say Hey your getting surgery on such & such date.. Think I could get that lucky? I don't.. sometimes luck just isn't on my side. But I am working on it. Now I am still having trouble with hello. But I am hoping a new friend of mine can help me with all the pic posting.. then I will post the pic of the truck. However the truck does not look as bad as I feel these days. But it is totaled.. oh well time for a new 4x4 truck. I just have to find one I like now. oh yeah that means SHOPPING!!!! hey can y'all tell I like shopping? LOL... anyways I will blog more another time, this is just my day.. not much sleep in the past few days. Bad habit of seeing a Telephone Pole when I shut my eyes.. But that will go away soon I hope.. I can drive again so thats a good start. OK I can drive on clear roads.. I have not tried it on snow covered roads yet, hence the cancelling of my Doctors appointment this morning.. But all will end well I hope.. See ya soon..

Driving Again!!

Well I have not driven since Saturday Night.. that accident really did a number on my head.. But as of today I will be behind the wheel again and going. I am not the type to sit around home for long. I have to be on the move.. There is always to much to do and depending on others has never been an option for me. Also you find out who your friends are in a situation like this.. I seem to have the words SUCKER tattooed on my forehead in 3D.. It never mattered to people how far out in the woods I lived when they have needed me in anyway. Yet When the time comes for me to need them. Even just for a quick run to the store. I get told sorry Jade, But you live to far away and I just can't make it.. So, I kinda pitty the next person who calls me and says they need a ride here, or they need me to do this, or they need me to do that.. I am sorry But as you live to far away, I just can't do it.. I know I know. I can say that all I want. But it won't happen. they call I will run... can y'all see that Tattoo?? sticks right out huh? But it won't matter. I will be back to driving today.. I have a Dr.s appointment at 9 am tomorrow in the city (about 60 miles away) and can not cancel it nor do I want to. Besides I really need this 2nd surgery on my shoulder so I can get busy with my life again. Not that I haven't been, But ya know what I mean.. Well I was gonna post a pic of my little Geo and show y'all what I did to it.. But as Hello won't even let me sign on let alone post pics to my blog. that is out.. Sorry.. if I ever get it fixed I will show ya the pic.. doesn't look that bad , however it woke me up in a hurry. Now I know what Life has to offer and it is time for me to Stop, smell the flowers and move on.. Be Happy in life. I am gonna do just that.. I am gonna stop, slow down and remember that life isn't bad.. OK now that I rambled on about nothing I guess it is time for me to go get dressed and see about that driving thing. LOL....

They are called accidents for a reason Jade

Yes, I know this.. But I am still really pissed at myself wvn this morning.. I have been in a lot of accidents. My last being about 10 or so years ago.. Yes I have never had an accident when I was behind the wheel.. Well of course until last night..

Yes last night I had my first car accident ever in my life and I have been driving since I was 13 years old... So here is what happened... We has snow all day on and off.. Started the night before.. the plows had been out but the roads were still covered in snow and yep ice under the snow.. Now I had been out in it all day. I even had to plow my way to work in the moring we had gotten so much.. Well then Finally I can get home and rest. yeah right.. I was following the snowplow up the road.. Finally he pulled over and it wasn't but 1/4 if that of a mile from my driveway. So I was going about 10 maybe 15 miles an hour.. I went out around him and when I pulled back over into my own lane I hit the ice.. thats all it took.. I went into a complete 36o and then BANG, of all things I hit the telephone pole, (Open feild that whole side excpet the pole) I hit it hard... it swung me around again so I was still on the opposite side of the road facing the direction I was going to begin with... 2 complete 360's in a matter of secounds... A Van was behind me with Kids in the car. The woman saw it and stopped to see if I was ok.. YES I was OK.. Just shook up real bad..I called for help and reported the accident.. did no damage to the Pole but I did bruise my neck area where the seatbelt lays... that is kinda tender this morning.. more so then last night. But I am OK.. The test for me comes today. I 'm not really scared but I will be getting behind the wheel again.. Gotts take my hubby to airport.. so I can at least have his truck while he is gone... OH yeah I forgot to mention.. when I spun out of control, my truck was in 4wheel drive.. so it is true folks.. only all 4 wheels spin instead of just 2... But I still feel safer in a 4 x4 any day in bad weather... But you can bet I don't think I will be passing anymore snowplows for a while... But then again when they are stopped like that I really won't have a choice...
Like I said, I know it wasn't my fault and I am very thankful no one else was involved and no one else could have gotten hurt in that.. But I am pissed at me cause I always have control of my car and last night I had no control at all... that is a screy thing to have happen... I know I could not have done nothing but what I did.. But it don;t help me being pissed at myself.. The truck might beable to get fixed I don't know.. to me it looks totaled and looks like I will be parting out a 1994 Geo Tracker soft top.. or selling the whole thing as is for parts.. Anyone interested?????
OK now back to what I was saying.. it is not my fault and it was an accident I know that... But damn.. this has never happened to me before and I don't like it... But I hope my neck is better soon.. I know it happened on my bad shoulder .. yep the one I have to have the 2nd surgery on...so truth that is in a whole lot more pain then I would like to.. but I have a dr appointment on Wed for that anyways... OK... thats it.. I have to get dressed and head to airport to drop off hubby... let ya all know how I am doing in a few days when I have stopped beating myself up over this... hope everyone had a good weekend...

Stairway to Heaven 

What is God?

What is God?

"Well, it had been yet another bad day in the office, and once again it was
the fault of that new girl, MaryAnne. She is one of those Wiccans, a so
called witch. How can anyone in their right mind make this claim, knowing
that it goes against God and all of the teachings of the bible?
She doesn't even have the common decency to keep her satanic symbol, her
pentagram necklace hidden from the view of the decent, God fearing people in
the office. She has some nerve. I find that I cannot hate her for this
though, for I know that she has been deceived. Satan works his evil in ways
that she cannot see. I've seen that so called Wiccan Rede that she has
tacked to the wall above her computer. On the surface, it looks like a
decent loving belief, but all one must do is look, look closely and see that
by practicing this way, and not embracing Jesus Christ as savior, she is on
the pathway to hell. As I've said, it was a bad day in the office. Three
times in the past few weeks I have been called in to see my supervisor, and
he has told me that I am not allowed to preach to MaryAnne the word of God,
to show her the error of her ways. Today, my supervisor told me that if I
continue to "harass" MaryAnne, he will be forced to terminate me. How can he
say this? He himself is a God fearing man. And, how can he be so tolerant of
the evil that he sees insinuating itself into our workplace?

As I lay down to sleep last night, I asked the Lord for guidance. "God,
grant me a true vision of you, so that I may better lead the faithless onto
the righteous path," "Oh, a true vision of Me is it? Are you sure that
you're ready, truly ready to see, my son?" I sat bolt upright in bed, and
there, at the foot of my bed, white of hair and beard, in a long, flowing
white robe, stood the Lord my God. I
made to leap from the bed and fall to my knees in front of Him, but he
stopped me with a gesture. "Kneel not before me at this time my son.
Instead, rise and walk with Me, so that you may get a glimpse of what I
truly am, as you asked of me in your prayer," He took my hand, and as I
looked, my bedroom was no longer there, but a pathway thru the woods. We
started to walk, and I was too awestruck for words.

We took the path to the left, and we were then inside St. Catherine's
Church, in the middle of a service. While still standing beside me, God
seemed to expand and fill the whole of the church. I could see smiles of
contentment forming on some of the parishioners faces. I felt blessed. God
smiled upon me. "The Catholics hold such pretty masses, don't they? I like
to stop here in this church, because not only do they speak the words, but
they live the life, thru teaching, helping the sick and poor, not only with
handouts, but helping them learn to help themselves. Now let us walk on,"

And we were back on the pathway. We traveled a bit further along, and then
were in the parlor of a funeral home. A young woman was kneeling before the
casket, resting her head on it and crying. I could see by the similarity,
that this dead man must be her father.
God knelt beside her, and drew His arms about her. "Miss him, that is all
right, but weep not for him, for now he is with Me". She wiped her eyes,
and stood with a sad smile upon her face, and said "Good-bye Daddy. I'll
miss you," and turned and left the room.

And we were back on the pathway. We walked a little ways, and we were in
> front of a large lodge of some kind. I could hear music and laughter
spilling out of the windows. I turned to look at God, and was shocked to
see, not the flowing white robe, but Him wearing leather and animal furs,
his hair and beard now the color of wheat, and a sword strapped across His
back. He strode forth, and I saw him approach a figure I had not seen
before. As I looked close, I was shocked to see that it was the same face
that I had just seen dead, but looking young and strong, and dressed in
ancient looking garb, an ax strapped to his waist. God strode up to him
and grabbed him in a great bear hug. "Welcome my son. We've been waiting for
you. Now, go inside and raise a cup or two, and meet with your brother."
And, with a hearty slap on the back, he sent the man inside.

And then we were back on the pathway. We walked a bit further, and then we
were in a mosque. At least I believed so, as I had never been in one before,
but had seen pictures of them. The group of worshippers was not
large, but I
could see their rapt faces as they listened to the mullah speak. He was
speaking to them of purity, both of the mind and the body, bringing them
closer to Allah. And as he spoke, God, dressed now in the robes of the
desert, walked among them and briefly laid his hands upon each set of
shoulders. And, from their faces, I could see that these men knew that the
words of the mullah were true, and that their spirits felt touched by God.

And then we were back on the pathway. After we had walked a bit, we found
ourselves in an African village. People with skin as black as night, the
women with their breast shamelessly bared, were dancing in a circle, to the
rhythm of the drums being played by a group of men. Somehow though, I was
not offended by the bared breasts, and the music seemed to seep into my
soul. God was then a mighty lion, and He let forth a mighty roar. The
villagers did not seem to hear, but the drums increased their pounding, and
the dancers danced with a frenzy. And then we were back on the pathway.

We walked a bit more, and were on the top of a cliff. There sat, painted and
covered with feathers, an old Navajo man. As I watched, he seemed to
change into the form of an eagle and take flight, and we were flying with
him, soaring high into the air, seeing the vista spread out below us. And
God, in the form of an eagle Himself, seemed to guide this other eagle thru
the air, over mountains and thru valleys, until he came upon a group of men.
As I watched, the old Navajo man was no longer an eagle, but a young boy
instead, and he sat at the feet of these men, to listen to the words of his elders.

And then we were back on the pathway. We traveled a bit, and then we were
in a forest clearing. I knew this place. It was known as a place of devil
worship and evil. In the center of the clearing roared a great bonfire, and
kiwi torches outlined a circle of sorts. Inside this circle, in a circle
themselves, stood 7 men and 6 women, dressed in robes of varying colors,
their arms raised to the moon. Was that one woman MaryAnne? I really
couldn't be sure. And God walked among them in the circle, touching each
one. He seemed not to be an older man now, but as he made each of three
turns around the circle, he was first a young girl, bouncing with energy,
then a woman of middle years, with a tender smile for all Her children, and
finally, an old woman, body bent, but holding Her head up with pride. And a
woman stepped forward, and yes, it was MaryAnne, and lifted her head to
the
sky. "Great Goddess, Mother of us all, thank you for joining us tonight.
Stay if You will, go if You must. Know in our hearts You will always be welcome.
Blessed be!!"

And we were back on the pathway. As we walked along, ahead in the distance I
saw the most beautiful man. Yes, beautiful, though I would never normally
think of a man this way. With blonde hair, and a golden robe, he seemed to
radiate sunshine. God and this golden man nodded to each other as they
passed, sharing a smile together. "My Lord" I asked, "was that an angel?"
"Well, yes, he is known as that to some. He is also known to some as a god
himself. That was Lucifer" And His words caused me to stumble. I couldn't
believe that we had just passed the ultimate evil. God looked at me, and
He knew my mind. And he chuckled a bit. "Think about it logically My
son. The Lucifer that you know is a fallen angel, cast out of heaven for
challenging Me. If I am the all powerful being, above all others, how could
he do this? How could I allow it?" "But, in the bible...." I stammered.
"The Bible is a wonderful book, as are the Koran and the Torah and many
others, but they are just books, written by the hand of man, not written by
Me. And, it's a bit confusing as well if the truth be known, but that's
not up to Me to fix. These books are wonderful, but only as guidance, for
each man and woman must think for themselves." And, I believed He was right
in this. "Now, come forth, we must journey a little more before you go
back" and He took my hand once again.

As we followed the pathway, we soared thru the stars, listening to the music
of the heavens, we became a little flower and a mighty oak, we became a
babbling brook, and a mighty ocean. We flitted from flower to flower as a
little honey bee, and ran across the plains as a mighty stallion.

And, all too soon the pathway returned us to my home. God held my hand a
moment longer, and smiled into my face. "My son, you prayed tonight for a
true vision of Me. For vision, you must only open your eyes and see what
there is to see. Good night to you". And then He was gone, and I was back
in my bed. A dream I thought, only a dream, that couldn't have been real.
At that time, a bolt of lightning lit up my room thru the window, and
thunder crashed thru the sky, and I thought I heard, from seemingly far
away, "Remember, the Lord works in mysterious ways My son".

This morning as I entered the office, I went to the machine for a cup of
coffee, and standing there, I spied MaryAnne. As I approached her, I could
see her barely cringe, and I could see in her face that she was expecting
yet another onslaught from me and my book. She seemed to cast her eyes
about for a way to escape, but there was none. I walked up to her and
smiled. "I think I owe you a bit of an apology" I said. "I've been a bit
narrow minded of late, and I really had no right to subject you to what I
did. It's not up to me to say how you find your path to your spirit, and I
was wrong to think that was so," MaryAnne just stood there, not knowing
what to say. "So, I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry, and I hope you
will forgive my trespass. God bless you MaryAnne, and...uh....
Blessed Be?"
You know, I always thought that it was just a saying, about peoples jaws
dropping to the floor, but MaryAnne did her best at that moment to prove me
wrong."

Eyes to the Soul 

The Eyes!!!

I didn't blog yesterday cause I had gotten a few emails asking why I say look into the eyes.. So I took the day to really think about this. Of course I make no claims as to making any sence here. Just my take on the matter.

You See, (no pun intended)
The eyes have a way of showing the persons soul. I mean right down deep as to who the person really is opposed to who they say they are. The eyes to me are a door way to the soul. Eyes show the real feelings of a person. the real attitudes a person has when appoched with a subject. they show when a person is honest or when they are lieing or when they just don't give a damn about anything or anyone. They show the love a person has for another, yet they can show the hate the same way. To me, the eyes have always told me what I needed to know almost before I asked the question out loud. I mean wow, when ya fall into a pool of deep blue eyes and see the depth that person has to the soul is amazing. the same for brown, or green or whatever color the eyes happen to be. them eyes are what I would perfer to look at.. One can always tell when they first meet someone rather that someone is gonna be a true friend/lover/partner.. or if they are wasting their time and energy on something far fetched. ya know, for some woman they like the fact that the first thing a guy notices is the chest. But for most woman, we like it when the guy is looking into our eyes and talking. Eye Contact. Now that is an amazing feeling rather it is with a friend/lover/partner.. Look at me when you speak. Meaning look into my eyes, see my soul while I see yours. Kinda like looking right into the heart and saying OK this is who I am.. I hope ya like what your seeing!! Now thats the feeling I like. But then this is all just my opinion. right or wrong it is mine.. Ya know, the eyes to me are the very soul of not just the person But of life.. Look a round. Look at people. try looking into the eyes when you speak. Watch them change, the eyes will change, the person will change, the heart will change. Life will change.. Ya got to love when that happens..

OK I am off my soap box.. But remember The Eyes, they never lie.

Spouses / Mates / Long Term

Well, After Reading my Sis's Blog, http://maggiezfarmaz.blogspot.com/.. I have to say she can really get a person to thinking.. So here is my look at somewhat the same subject.. Lets see. Magz came up with a cool quote in the 2nd paragraph.. "When you very first meet someone you're attracted to, take a HARD look at them in the first 20 minutes or so... because you'll never see them so honestly again" ....... I have to say that this can and can not be true.. Think about it.. When you first meet some one, they just like you might just be putting on a show and trying to be someone your not so you look good in their eyes.. or then again maybe it's true. Maybe you do see them in all their honesty right in the first 20 minutes or so.. I have to say that I been partnered with some real losers in my life because I didn't take that first long hard look.. But then there was a few I did and they were nothing like what I first saw.. So good maybe, maybe not.. I can say from my years that I still take a hard look at the person for who they are inside. the outside is not what gets my attention it is always the persons heart that gets me going.. Well that and a nice butt, LOL.. Just Joking folks..

But I tend to go for what is inside the heart. and the eyes have this way of showing you what you really want to see.. take a look and see for yourself. the eyes can not lie. So to be attracted to someone you both must feel the fireworks yet also both of you can see in the others eyes what their truths are.. truths, well that can be anything we want them to be right? wrong. the truths are just that, they are the truths. at least thats how I see them.. most will find me wrong and some will find me right.. but what is right or wrong? Well anyways back to what I was saying...

Spouses/ Mates. Long Term Realtionships or what ever you want to call it at the time.. What attracted you to that person in the first place? What made you stay for as long as you did? are you still in love? What did the mate look like? Did it have anything to do with why you got togeather? So many questions. But then why do we worry so much about what others think? Are we that shallow that we would wonder what anothers thoughts are about our other half? Isn't what matters is how we feel about our other half? I mean they are our other halfs right? they are who makes us US, Right?

I don't think so myself.. I am who makes me who I am... I once wrote something in my Status Box on Yahoo Messenger to get peoples responces to that subject.. OK maybe for another post down the road, LOL.. So back to what I was saying... If I am what makes me who I am, Then wouldn't that mean my spouse or other half is who he is.. I for one do not need a man to make me feel complete. I make me feel complete.. I need my other half for love and surport and a partnership and a friend. Yet as time goes on, things can change. OK, let me put it this way.. I was married at a very young age. The guy was my childhood sweetheart. Dated on and off for years.. then got married at the age of 16. we were not togeather a year, OK 1 week shy of a year.. then I walked out the door.. The man was not the same man I had dated. He became someone else. He became controling, He became a cheater, He became a drug addict, He became a Jerk, He became everything he was not during the years we were togeather.. Now if I had not dated him for so long before we got married I might have known all these things and not said I do. But no. in this situation I knew the guy for many years. But in the end he was not who I had taken a long hard look at.. He was someone else. Someone I did not like and hated for many years. He broke my heart. Yet today we are friends. Friends because we both learned that we can look at a person all we want. But that don't mean we will get what we see..

OK , so maybe there is truth in never seeing the honesty after the first 20 minutes.. sounds like a lot of contradiction going on here huh? I agree. But hell I been there to many times... I can sit here and say YES look long and hard for the first 20 minutes.. But come on.. are we really gonna look no we are not. not in that sence anyways... Humans go for the fireworks. they want it. they need it. they can't live without it.. Well News Flash. Humans do it all the time. some get the fireworks and some don't. But life keeps moving with or without us. Do we give up? Nope we don't..

I have also been reading about putting people on a scale on go after what you don't think is in your league, because you can't get them or do and it might or might not work out... Well my take on that would be.. Don't put others on a scale.. Don;t put yourself on a scale. If you see someone you want to meet, walk up and intro yourself... Who knows, that may just be there person you will spend the rest of your life with. Who cares what others think.. Just do it.. Are we going to live life according to a scale? I for one don't. Hell I would rather go after what I want and be happy then not and maybe regret it later... Not for me.. I want to be happy, there for I am going after what I want rather it be another person or anything else in this life. Simply put, I want to be happy and not living a life of sadness because I worried about what the other person would think of me if I was bold enough to go up and say Hi..That other person will either like me or not.. and we move on.. But either way I will be happy I did it.. OK am I making any sence here at all???? I didn't think so.. But I tried, and after I think about all this some more, I will be back to post about it again.. in the mean time.. Thats all folks.....

Letchworth State Park, Castile NY, Spring 2004
 

I hate Winter!!

Well here I sit inside my house on beautiful sunny day. Yep, the Sun is out and it looks warm, yeah right. warm, yep.. 27 out with the High only 38 for today. But tomorrow will be 45, wow a heat wav, time for a tan.. I hate winter.. yeah I know I should love the fact I get all 4 seasons here. But winter is always so long and so cold that I get cabin fever fast. I love the outdoors. But how does a person enjoy the winters when they can't really do anything they use to?? I know I am not a young chicken anymore, However I would like to get out once in a while.. But I have good news to this... Spring is on the way.. soon all this white stuff I use to think was pretty will be gone. The grass will be green as ever, the flowers will start to bloom and the earth will smell wonderful.. I will beable to go outdoors barefoot (I hate shoes).. I will be able to enjoy the Sun while I am out seeing and doing the things I enjoy. OH NO, that means I will have to get back to the exercising again. riding my bike and walking.. OK so a few things are good, LOL.. as ya'll can tell, I really have nothing to blog right now. LOL, so I ramble ramble ramble.. But hey your all reading it anyways so it must not be to bad.. Anyways here comes a pic of one of our State parks here in Western New York... Hope you enjoy. it was taken in May of 2004...

A Beautiful Hello 

Just Checking in..  

This Fits Me Well

MY FORGETTER

My forgetter's getting better,
But my rememberer is broke
To you that may seem funny
But, to me, that is no joke
For when I'm "here" I'm wondering
If I really should be "there"
And, when I try to think it through,
I haven't got a prayer!
Often times I walk into a room,
Say "what am I here for?"
I wrack my brain, but all in vain!
A zero, is my score.
At times I put something away
Where it is safe, but, Gee!
The person it is safest from
Is, generally, me!
When shopping I may see someone,
Say! "Hi" and have a chat,
Then, when the person walks away
I ask myself, "who was that?"
Yes, my forgetter's getting better
While my rememberer is broke,
And it's driving me plumb crazy
And that isn't any joke.
CAN YOU RELATE???

Please send this to everyone you know
because

I DON'T REMEMBER WHO I SENT THIS TO!!!!

Blogging or Go Nuts?

Well here I am for the past few days playing with this blog. Now I can't get my links to show up but not for lack of not trying. there was a time I was good at HTML. But I guess that was a few years back. I guess I lost a lot of imformation in my head over the past few years of being to busy to play on here. But now that I got the time. I can't seem to remember nothing I learned way back when. Kinda reminds me of when I went to school.. I couldn't remember then either. But that normally came when I had a test. But I guess with age this happens. Yep it is official, I am OLD.. But thats OK. they say you get better with age. I wonder when? anyhows. I can't get my links to stick, I can't post a pic unless I use hello, OK so the problems are not a lot, LOL.. But it is driving me nuts.. So I been playing with that and not blogging at all. Which I guess is a good thing since I really had nothing to say for a few days. My mind has been busy with other things on it and then the fact that I was not feeling well yesterday at all.. not sure what the problem was But I feel much better today.. at least right now I do. we will see later as I have some Bath Salts I have to make for some back orders, well way back back orders, LOL.. But I finally got all my Essintal oils, so I guess I better get them made. Well thats if I want any money. But hell I have a bad habit of giving them away. Humm, no wonder I don't make no money with this stuff... But it is nice to see the look on peoples faces when I give it to them. or when they come back and tell me how wonderful they think my product is and how they don't even need lotion when they get out of the bath. Makes me feel real good that people like them so much.. But I really do think I need to charge them, LOL.. After all it is not like they are expensive. I only charge like $3.50 for a good size bag. Well I guess I better get started on them or I will not do them again today.. So off I go.. Lets see, so far this morning I have had my coffee, Blogged, talked on IM, checked Ebay . I need to Shower, make salts, have fresh coffee ready for friends coming over.. OK a slow day. this is a good thing.. I am off and running.. Maybe I will blog more later... Later

2 Horoscopes - 2 Sources

Hum, I wonder what I am being told today?

by Astrology.com
Quickie:
Don't take people at their word. Get under the surface. See what they really mean.
Overview:
It's time to get out there and see if you can find someone who's not afraid to return a long, lingering stare without blinking. Even if they give in before you do -- well, isn't that even more appealing?
Daily work :
If you're not sure about the fine print, don't sign. Nothing's final until it has your approval. Don't let pushy people convince you to accept anything less than the best
Daily extended :
You're already famous for being aggressive, but to say that you'll be a bit bold in your approach to someone new won't quite cover it. You'll be well past bold. In fact, you'll cross over into a behavioral territory that can only be referred to as brazen. So if a third party is foolish enough to stand between you and the object of your affection -- well, let's just say they won't be standing in that spot for long

Emotional issues now weigh on your mind as you sink into an unfamiliar sea of deep feelings. You Rams may be quite capable when it comes to going into action, but right now there may be nothing for you to do except ride the currents and see where they take you. Don't try to be in charge. Instead, respond from your heart.
