Sky

I love the sky, I know these photos won't be all that clear, I took them on my mobile phone whilst out walking Mr Milo.



My head feels very much like the clouds, I have yet another cold, feeling fuzzy and dizzy, don't worry I am wearing a surgical mask to save spreading my germs over you all!

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!

Oft 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.

I posted this some time back, but on a recent post over at Hick Chic it just brought it to mind, so Heidi this is for you and the rest of us who have this forgetter problem!!So this is my list for today!
p.s. sorry people I did forget to tell you that I can not take credit for the poem, it was sent to me via e-mail some time ago

Started Just!

Thanks for wishing me well from the migraine, all gone, well slight fuzzy feeling but a lot better.

Finally started my Christmas shopping, yippee! I got soooooo excited!

You may or may not know of 'In the Night Garden', I don't, no honest I don't!

Well we had these toys in where I work, but then they sold out and have never come back in, so starting to get worried me and a friend kept looking out for them, couldn't find any.

Friday I took myself off to Toys r Us and guess what I bought, yep the one and only Igglepiggle! This is for my lovely friends adorable little man.
So in a nice calm manner, whilst jumping up and down and getting lots of strange looks, I rang my friend and asked her if she wanted me to get Upsy Daisy too!

So on a roll I took myself off to Argos to buy this for the little fella, trouble is it is only available for home delivery, seeing the size of the queue I decided to come home and order it on line.
It's not a big item, it isn't a heavy item so why its only available for home delivery at a cost of £4.95 beats me!
So order placed, item paid for, delivery date Tuesday 27th November between 7.00am and 6pm, means stopping in for the day, but hey its for the little fella so no problem.
Trouble is it is now 7.30pm and I am still waiting!!!!
Give you one guess who I have just e-mailed then!!!!

Where Did It Start

Casdok showed us a photo of where her blogging started and invited us to do the same, so this is where I first became a 'blogger' back here in July 2006, gosh so long ago now!

But I very rarely blog there now! I now spend my time blogging heremuch more comfy, and not because there is no chair in the first photo, i just moved it out of the way LOL!

But you see I am spending sooooooo much time blogging, well you do all keep posting and I hate missing out, so I got me up and running on the lap top! Now I can keep up to date with you all even whilst cooking tea and watching TV. The only set back is that it drives himself crazy the constant tap tap tapping on the keyboard whilst I am leaving your all comments!

So those of you who have a stat counter and see that I have been and read but not commented it's not because I don't love ya its because I am trying to be silent!

There you have it, feel free to invite me to your blogging space.

Mr Milo to the Rescue

Mr Milo has a little friend called Molly, well I say a friend, should I say I have a very good friend who we will call S, who has a little dog called Molly, I introduced you to her when she was just a tiny little puppy last year.

We thought Mr Milo just tolerates her because he loves his auntie S!
Anyway this is our Molly now
Well I now have proof that he really does love her, you see whilst out walking Molly got stuck in a tree, oh no poor Miss Molly. Now although Mr Milo can be a wimp, yes I know he will be upset that am telling you that he can be a wimp, but it has to be said! But without any concern for himself he leapt straight to Miss Molly's rescue.Well done Mr Milo you deserve a rest!

I Have One

I have one
Your husband will have one
Your mother uses your father's one
And your auntie uses your uncle's one
A married lady would acquire one
But a divorced lady would lose her one
A Pope doesn't use his one
Madonna doesn't have one
The Chinese usually have short ones
While the Pakistanis usually have long ones
After your marriage your husband will give you his one!
Longer or shorter you have to take his one.
Are you afraid of taking a LONG one.
Do you want one?
How long do you want?
Which one is your preferred one?
Long one or short one
What you are thinking of?

Are you sure?


Its your Surname, what where you thinking of?


You`ve a Dirty mind!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to wish all my American friends A HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY, enjoy your celebrations
