I Guess You Had To Be There!

 (Funny Peanut Butter and Jelly I Love You Card by PattieJansen)

        Is it just me and my hubby, or is it true with everybody, that when your schedule gets so full that you can't figure out what to do or which way to turn first, all of a sudden everything seems funny?!...I suspect it's just silly 'us'!! LOL

     Case in point: hubby and I woke up this morning talking about all the things we have to do today. You know, 'running it by each other' and trying to put things in order of importance in our minds...A, B, and then C. Life is more productive that way, right?!...*shaking my head*...In our case, WRONG! ^_^

      Having no grits to make breakfast reminded hubby that he had to get in the car and go to the store...which reminded him about the fact that it's Saturday and he doesn't have to drive his clients anywhere today!...which reminded him of a conversation he overheard between two of his elderly lady clients the other day as he was driving along. It went like this:

"Why don't you ever wear pants?"

        "I haven't worn pants for 41 years!"

"But didn't you win some pants playing Bingo?"

         "Yeah, but I can't find my pants!"

     Hubby didn't know what they were talking about...and he didn't wanna know!! LOL He was just glad they didn't try to rope him into the conversation! ^_^

      ...but just rehashing their conversation reminded him about the pretty trees and flowers he saw out the window as he was trying not to pay attention to their conversation...which reminded him of the hummingbird feeder that he put up in the other side of our backyard, and how he has to either move it back near our window, or get another one today...which reminded him of the baby hummingbird he saw in the yard yesterday, that he took some photos of and wanted to show me! :-) ...

     I uploaded and enlarged his three photos. Uhhhh...do you see a baby hummingbird?!...
 

     I said: "Honey, that's a hummingbird?!...Where is his beak?!" O_O...

      He came over and looked at the screen and said: "Awwww! O_O He doesn't even look like a hummingbird in those photos! I thought I was closer!.....Hmmmm...Ha! Ha!...he looks like a pussy-willow!!" ^_^
     I laughed too, because...Uhhh...this is a pussy-willow (below)!...

    ...and looking back at the photo of the baby hummingbird...I agree!!! ^_^ It 'does' look like a pussy-willow on the branch instead of a hummingbird!! Ha! Ha! I guess you had to be there. ^_^

     Anyway!...This morning's chitter chatter headed down the 'things we find funny' road...and something tells me that the 'WHOLE' 'To Do' list is not gonna get 'Too Done' today!! ^_^ ...But we don't wanna giggle alone. Here's a few giggles for you too!...

      ^_^ This T-shirt reminded me that I haven't had breakfast....I mean, any exercise...yet! LOL

      And you computer lovers will 'howl' over this one!! ^_^ ...

       And, of course, I 'hollered' over this one...

(Pillowcases by eugenie2)

       The description for the pillowcases said they were a funny gift idea for the bed hog in your life. ^_^ Uhhhh...that would be 'ME'!!! LOL...But I don't think it's that funny!! Frankly, I think it's just a great idea!! ^_^ I would finally be able to claim a 'drool-free' zone!!! LOL Or at least...turning over only to get a face full of my own drool! ^_^ Sorry...was that too much information?!....*twiddling my fingers*

        Yeah, right!! You all know EXACTLY what I'm talking about!!!! I'm sure you HAVE been there!! (I heard it said that Marriage is like a deck of cards. In the beginning all you need is two hearts and a diamond...By the end, you wish you had a club and a spade...I think the spade is so you can knock the drool away!!) LOL

    Giggle amongst yourselves! ^_^ And have a good weekend!

Sense Of Humor

How do you gauge a sense of humor?
Is it just about a laugh?
Do you only know you're funny
when they're doubled up, in half?

Can a chuckle or a giggle
be a clue that you have wit?
Or can a smile and a head shake
be the quiet proof of it?

It's the people that are laughing,
in their house, their yard, their car.
That can spot a sense of humor;
recognize it from afar.

I don't know myself.
I just know what makes me smile.
Anyone who likes themselves
and can be talking for a while.

And if they make me wanna sit
and wonder "what will they say next?",
then they have a sense of humor
cuz I wouldn't be here unless...

It's Laughable!!

         Here we go! Another Monday...Another beginning of a week....Another kick start to your schedule...Another slew of plans you have to implement...And for me?!....Hopefully another night of sleep somewhere in the works! O_O

     I saw these owls and they made me giggle. The eyes make me think of what my eyes must look like to hubby at 2:30 or 3:00 in the morning...when he turns over to see why I'm pulling on his cover! LOL...Anyway! That's not what I wanna talk about today. I'm sick of talking about my sleep...or lack thereof...and my hormonal issues! Grrr!

     Today I wanna talk about things that make me laugh! ^_^ Me and hubby got into a conversation over the weekend about the different shows that we've loved over the years and our favorite scenes from them. (By the way, if you tried to look at our videos on the other blog --> HERE <-- and couldn't, try again. I fixed the setting.) It immediately had us acting out scenes and laughing our heads off!! ^_^ ...I was almost so wiped out after laughing that I could've taken a long nap! LOL...Tried it...

      ...I slept for about 20 minutes and then popped back up like a  'Jack-in-the-box' that's been wound up too tight!! LOL

      Some of the things we talked about were funny scenes, like the scene in 'Frasier' where Frasier had bought a restaurant. Do you remember that?! :-)) He put his brother, Niles, in charge of cooking in the kitchen and the aristocrats they they were, they put eels on the menu. O_O For some reason though, they were brought 'live' eels in a fish tank...and Niles was afraid of the eels...and didn't want to have to kill them.

     In a frustrated haze, Daphne grabbed one of the eels out of the tank and whacked it across the table...:-)) ...and later, there was an explosion that happened when Daphne walked through the door. She came back through the door looking charred, and her clothes were smoking, and announced that there was cherries jubilee everywhere! LOL You had to be there. Ha! Ha!

      I think I have funny scenes going through my head from every show I've ever seen, since I was a kid!  Just rolling through my head, waiting for the times when I'm so exhausted that I don't know what to do with myself. That's when my brain decides to play them, like movies in my head...one after the other! LOL

      What's in there?!...Lucille Ball's chocolates on a conveyer belt scene,...Martin and Gina's vacation to "Chilligan's Island",...Phoebe (of "Friends") learning how to ride a bike for the first time...sorta!... ^_^...Bill Cosby's family singing "Baby...Ohhhhh Baby!!" for their grandparents, lip syncing to an old record...and tons and tons of other useless...funny...stuff! LOL

      Do you remember the funniest thing you ever saw?!...If I used that criteria though...the funniest thing I ever saw...there would also have to be things on the list that weren't on T.V....like hearing my hubby talking to.....himself...in the bathroom. I snuck around the corner to peep in and see what he was saying, and who he was saying it to...only to find him with a face full of shaving cream, playing out a scene from the wild west, to himself in the mirror!! ^_^ "This town ain't big enough for the both of us!" LOL

     When he realized, after I bust into laughter, that I had seen the whole scene, you should've seen his embarrassed face!....PRICELESS!!! ^_^

Okay...I'm off to get some breakfast. We've got a lot to do today. I'll tell you about it in the upcoming days...Thankfully the 'leg-work' of it can be done here at home...because I'm gonna need to be close to home...and bed...today!...I foresee a good day. I hope you all have a good day too! :-)

Home

The place where I am at my best.
A place of calm and peace and rest.

The place from which I never roam.
'Cause it's in my heart, this place called home!

I Thought We Needed Some Culture With The 'FUNNY!!!" Today!

I learned how to upload Youtube videos!!! :-) I hope, over the next little time now, that you'll enjoy the things I share with you because of it. I've been wanting to do it for a long time, but felt like I'd better leave 'Well Enough' alone before I made my whole blog inoperable!! LOL
I shared my first attempt last night. I was surprised at how well it worked, although not perfectly. The second video was much larger than I wanted, and covered up my Wuglyees shop widget! LOL...WHATEVER! You could still see it! :-)
So, today I thought I'd try another one! I hope you enjoy the soft sounds of "Pachelbel Canon in D". After that I want to tell you the cute story of what happened last night. So, after you're all mellow and cultured, come read some 'FUNNY'! ^_^.

...The phone rang. Hubby answered it. It was my dad's voice, in an excited tone, but in the background were also the soft voices of kids saying: "No, Granddaddy!!" Then my dad said: "Is this the Police Department?! I have some bad kids here I'd like you to come and get!!"
After hubby figured out who it was, and what he was doing....he played along! :-) My dad said: "Officer, can you come and pick up two bad kids from...(he said the address). The kids got really loud and said: "No,...is that really the Police?! O_0" {They sounded a little scared.} My dad said: "Yes it is. You wanna talk to him?" They said nervously: "Yeah."
Hubby, in a deep voice deeper than his usual deep voice I mean} said: " Who is this?! (Grrrr!) Did I hear that there's some bad kids over there?! Do I need to come and pick you up!!"....One of the little ones (one was about 4 and the other was about 6 years old) said, in an "Awwww!-I-know-who-you-are!" kind of voice: "Who are you?!!"
Hubby repeated what he said, and then.....the two of them started laughing hysterically! LOL In the meantime we could hear my father saying: "No, really, it's the police! You wanna go to jail?!" But they weren't buying his story anymore. 'Uncle Jeff' let the cat out of the bag with his bad police officer acting job! ^_^
We could hear that they were jumping all over my father, and giggling in that 'little-kid-belly-laugh giggle'. ^_^ My nieces love my father so much. It was cute to see that my dad had lost his fierce authority stance. He had it strongly in place when we were kids. But it didn't scare us for long either! :-)
He thanked Jeff for trying, and said goodbye. Before the phone clicked though, we heard them tussling and giggling like crazy, and heard my dad say: "Where's my rope?..." I'm afraid he can threaten all he wants. They're onto him now! :-) ...Just a reminder of why I am the person I am, and feel the way I do about myself. I had good 'Brought-upsy'!! :-) Sara Haze's song "Lovely" says it all.



Have a good rest of the day everybody!! :-)

Remember Being Little?

Do you remember being little?
Wish you could stay like that?
Playing 'Hopscotch' in the yard,
and dressing up in your Mama's hat?

Do you remember getting attention
just by smiling, being you?
Singing into pens and brushes?
Getting dimes for things you drew?

Do you remember flannel Pjs,
with the closed in, too warm, feet?
Or the shiny patten leathers
you couldn't play in in the street?

Do you remember bouncy curls?
Wish your hair would do that now?
Or your first grade stage performance
with your shy and humble bow?

Do you remember being little?
Wake up and wonder where you're at?
Make yourself go back to sleep;
Then dream the world is just like that?
