Saturday Smiles – Dad jokes
April 20, 2019
What are they? A Dad joke is an embarrassingly bad joke – because he feels nostalgic about times when you were little and laughed at just about anything. And because he wants to embarrass you as much as he can while he can. ♦Today, my son asked “Can I have a book mark?” and I … More Saturday Smiles – Dad jokes
Mangled Fingers, Sheep, Turkeys, Puppies and Jabs
April 19, 2019
Our youngest has a birthday coming up this week. Twenty five. Which of course led me to reminiscing. Which is when I found this post…. “Do you know there’s a dog on the roof of your house?” asked the newspaper man in amazement as he collected the monthly fees. “Oh, yes. That’s Jessica. She’s surveying … More Mangled Fingers, Sheep, Turkeys, Puppies and Jabs

Turn That Frown Upside Down
April 10, 2019
There were frowns all around. I suppose that was to be expected. After all, they lived in Frownsville. Had there been anything else, it would have created even more consternation and chaos. The day always started out in the usual manner. Morning aches and pains woke sleepers out of a restless rest. Groans and moans … More Turn That Frown Upside Down
It’s Time to Let Go – of Stuff
April 8, 2019
We’ve ordered a council hard refuse kerbside pick up. It’s happening this Friday. What that means is there will be a flurry of sifting, sorting, decluttering. A process of deciding what has to go. What might go. What must be kept. I started that yesterday. There are little, and not so little, piles of stuff … More It’s Time to Let Go – of Stuff
