The other thread is full, so hopefully this will be the start of another 1000 opportunities to smile.

Wow. It worked today, but not yesterday!

The thought for this photo is -

Do NOT blindly obey your Big Sister when she tells you to stick your head through a hole before you have seen what is on the other side!

Poor DS has discovered that if you do, proof of your inability to say No will be plastered all over Facebook! grin

Yes, the 'Bison' one will be me again in just under a month. I shall really miss him, he is lovely.

I shan't miss his washing or ability to empty the fridge just by looking at it, though.

Very true, I suppose it's another way of telling you to just be yourself.

Oh, Aka you got in first! I just copied that one from FB to put on here! DH took several seconds to see it.

Lying around, pondering the problems of the world, I realized that at my age I don't really give a toss anymore.

If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal.

A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, but is still fat.

A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years, while a tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing, yet it lives for 150 years.

And they tell us to exercise? I don't think so.

Now that I'm older, here's what I've discovered:

1. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.
2. My wild oats are mostly enjoyed with prunes and all-bran.
4. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
5. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
6. If all is not lost, then where the heck is it?
7. It was a whole lot easier to get older than it was to get wiser.
8. Some days, you're the top dog, some days you're the hydrant.
9. I wish the buck really did stop here, I sure could use a few of them.
10. Kids in the back seat cause accidents.
11. Accidents in the back seat cause kids.
12. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.
13. The world only beats a path to your door when you're in the bathroom.
14. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he'd have put them on my knees.
15. When I'm finally holding all the right cards, everyone wants to play chess.
16. It's not hard to meet expenses . . .. They're everywhere.
17. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
18. These days, I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter . . . I go somewhere to get something, and then wonder what I'm "here after".
19. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
20. Have I sent this message to you before...or did I get it from you?
