I'M GETTING OLD....


Once again another year has come and gone. 30 more days and i'll be another year older. Did anyone fill out the age test? I did and it said my body was really 41, that's eight years older then what i really am. My kids are constantly reminding me that in a few more years they will be driving and just the other day my mother pointed out to me i could be a grandmother in another 6 more years. Hopefully not less then that. I hate it! I get really depressed about 30 days before my birthday every single year since i turned 30. I cried that day, what will i do when i reach 40? I sit and wonder what have i accomplished with all these years? Absolutely nothing. What have I learned in that time more then you can imagine. Does it help me from making mistakes? No, because i keep making them. Will it ever end? Who knows? Ok so I've reached the talking to myself and answering myself point. Whats next?

The census taker knocked on Miss Kimball's door. She answered all his questions except one. She refused to tell him her age. "But everyone tells their age to the census taker," he said. "Did Miss Maisy Hill, and Miss Daisy Hill tell you their ages?" "Certainly." "Well, I'm the same age as they are." she snapped. "As old as the Hills," he wrote on his form.

HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY!



An Irishman went for an interview with one of the major blue chip computer companies.
When the interview was over the interviewer told him that all applicants had to complete a test.
The interviewer took a piece of paper and drew six vertical lines in pairs of two on the paper and placed it in front of the Irishman.
"Could you please show me a clever way to make this into nine?"
After thinking for a while the Irishman took the pencil and drew a canopy of leaves on top of the three pairs of lines, and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not nine!"
"Oh yes it is", said the Irishman with a broad Irish accent, "Tree + Tree + Tree make nine!"
The interviewer handed the paper back to the Irishman and asked him to make it 99.
After thinking for a longer while the Irishman scribbled up and down the trunks and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not ninety nine!"
"Oh yes it is", said the Irishman, "Dirty tree + dirty tree + dirty tree make ninety nine."
The interviewer was now a bit cheesed off so he decided to do the Irishman once and for all, therefore, he handed the paper back to the Irishman and asked him to make it 100.
After thinking for a considerably longer time the Irishman suddenly grabbed the pencil and drew a little blop on the bottom right hand side of each three and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not 100!"
"Oh yes it most certainly is", said the Irishman with a much broader Irish accent, "Dirty tree and a turd + dirty tree and turd + dirty tree and a turd make 100!!!!!"

The Flu Has Hit Us Hard!


Well, Uncle Tim has pictures of the cootie bugs and its various forms,
I however was able to only get just this one photo of the flu bug.
Personally I would rather have the cootie bug invade my house then this nasty flu bug.
This Bug makes you feel horrible all over from head to toe.
It has infected our upper respitory system
and intestines as well as the achy muscles to go with feeling miserable.

Something like this!

So I haven't been feeling up to doing much on the computer.

I even skipped bowling Because I felt so lousy. But It had to hit everyone else too.

Being doctor and sick at the same time sucks.

Having the whole family get sick you better have a lot of these on hand!

Well, That's about all thats new with us wish it was a better subject to blog about.

Maybe next time!

Sorry, everyone for not posting anything in such a long time. My computer wasn't working properly so Bill had to redo my operating system and wiped out everything on the computer and started over like it was brand new. I did however backup all my files that i wanted to keep before he did that. It took a long time to get everything back up and running like I wanted it. He also installed a dvd player/recorder (so I wouldn't have to keep going to my brother's house to use his all the time) Now I can use my own in the comfort of my own home. Bill is still working on a few things so he is on the computer most of the time which is why I haven't been able to blog. So I just wanted to let everyone know in case you wondered where I've been all this time.
I'll try to post another blog soon. Take care and God Bless!
