Mother Nature, You Are A Devil!

How am I supposed to walk outside when you made our streets and sidewalks an ice rink?  Even my handy dandy ice/snow cleats can't handle this.  Grrrrr!

So Many Guns...

So many deaths.  Welcome to America.

A Cold Winter Night, A Long Hot Bath...

And a good book.

Dear Facebook...

If I knew my friends' friends and wanted to be friends with my friends' friends, I'd ask them to be friends.  So please stop asking if I know my friends' friends.

Mother Nature, You Will Not Win.

You can dump 8-10 inches of snow on us, but when the streets are cleared, I will strap my ice/snow cleats onto my shoes, bundle up, put the dog's leash on her, and together we will head out for our (almost) daily walk.

A Little Tipsy?

Can a person get drunk on rum cake?

Mother Nature's Snow Job.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"The Fact of the Matter Is"

a most annoying phrase.

Late to Bed, Early to Rise,

Gives a gal bags under her eyes.

Oh, Mother Nature, You Are So Confused!

It's 55° in Minnesota in December, and there is no snow on the ground.  Do you understand that it's December, not April?

How Sweet It Is!

Tomorrow is December 1st, and we have no snow on the ground.  For all of the snow-lovers out there, I don't make the weather, I just enjoy it.

Restaurant Gift Card Mix-Up.

Two $25 gift cards.  Meal = $29.  Tip = $6.  Balance on card returned to customer = 0.  Uh, oh!  Zeroed out card returned to customer instead of card with a balance.  In a situation like this where two cards are used, check the returned card number against the number on the receipt.  We certainly will next time.

Oh, Baby, It's Cold Outside.

And as it gets colder and colder, it gets harder and harder to motivate myself for my daily walks.  But I am determined to do battle with Mother Nature.

I Am A Lucky Woman.

I cooked dinner, and Hubby washed all the dishes and put away the leftovers.




Is It Still Black Friday...

if it starts on Thursday?

Where's Mine?

According to the Romney folks, people voted for Obama because he promised them gifts.  I guess my gift will be arriving soon.

If They Want to Secede...

perhaps we should let them.

Dear Papa John's

I would gladly pay more for a pizza if you would provide health insurance for your employees. 

Big Money Versus the People...

The people won.

Hurricane Sandy Says...

Do you believe in climate change now?

Gobble, Gobble.

 
I cleaned out some food items from the basement freezer last night.  What did I find at the bottom?  A turkey!

Give It Away!

If one has so much "stuff" in one's garage that the car doesn't fit in, perhaps, just perhaps, one has too much "stuff."

Missing Anything?

If you're wondering where your athletic shoes are, they're hanging over the telephone wire by my house.

Fire!

One must be careful not to let a potholder touch the hot element in an electric stove.  

Blender vs Toaster

The blender will not work if one plugs in the toaster cord instead of the blender cord.  

I'm Not Catholic But...

The Nuns on the Bus are pretty awesome.   

How Many Houses?

It's hard to believe a person can forget how many houses he owns, especially when it's "only" four.

Who's That Old Woman in the Mirror?

OMG!  It's me!

How Do They Do It?



Some liars can lie with such straight faces.

'Tis Sad.

Oh, if only veggies tasted as good as chocolate.  

How Much Does it Cost?!

I just read there is a brand of mattress sets that cost $7,000-$17,000 for a queen set.  Seriously?!  $17,000 for a mattress set? 

Double Moocher?

Hey, Mitt, since my family was on welfare when I was a child, and I'll soon be drawing Social Security, does that make me a doubly irresponsible government-dependent moocher who thinks of herself as a victim?  

Calling All Drivers...

Pay attention to your driving so you don't rear-end the vehicle in front of you that's stopped at the light.

Nice Until...

Non-slip shoes with lots of tread on the bottom are nice--until one steps in a pile of dog poop and has to dig the critter waste out of the treads with a small stick.

Tip of the Day.

When cooking an egg with cheese on top, it's always a good idea to remove the paper from the cheese. 

Who Wrote Those Baking Directions?!

It is nearly impossible to take the internal temperature of a wedge fry.
