    Red Neck Joke

     
     
     
                    The Weenie Game.

          Three 5th graders, an Irish kid, Italian kid and a Redneck kid are in the playground at recess. One of them suggests that they play a new game.

            "Let's see who has the largest weenie," he says.
            "Okay." They all agree. The Irish kid pulls down his zipper and whips it out.

           "That's nothing," says the Italian kid. 
           He whips his out.  His is a couple of inches longer.
     
           Not to be out done, the Redneck kid whips his out.  It is by far the biggest. 
         
           That night, eating dinner at home, the Redneck kid's mother asks him
           what he did at school today.

           "Oh, we worked on a science project, had a math test and read out loud from a new book ...  And during recess, my friends and I played 'The weenie game'."

           "What kind of game is that, honey?" asks the mother. 
           "Well, me, Anthony and Patrick each pulled out our weenies and I had the biggest! 
            The other kids say its because I'm a Redneck.  Is that true, Mom?"

            Mom replies, "No, Honey.  It's because you're twenty-three."

    OK... thats just about ENOUGH ALReady!!!

     
     
     
     
     
                        OK i know its winter and we are suppost to get some snow. But over a foot in 2 days is a little to much for this Canadian. Yesterday i spent close to 2 1/2 hours with my snowblower and my shovel moving snow out of my 2 driveways. This morning we woke to find another 6 inches of snow on the ground. So after 2 hours of moving snow i have my driveways clean again. I called my Mom and she was going to go out and shovel their driveway. I said not to bother becouse the snow was way to heavy to shovel. So i loaded my snowblower and headed over to clear their driveway too. It happend to workout that i finished just in time for lunch at my Moms...Bonus!!!!. Afer lunch i loaded the snowblower and headed to the store to ....yup move more snow. With that done i drove by one of our job sites and asked one of my guys if he needed his driveway cleaned?? He informed me that he and his wife were both stuck this morning trying to get to work. After a hour in his driveway i was done.
                      I filled up the van with gas and headed home to rest. Well that didnt quit workout the way i planned it. Our friends had just spent 8,000 dollars on new furniture and it had arrived at the furniture store. The store wanted 75 dollars to deliver the stuff to their house. You would think that if you could spent that kind of money on furniture....you could aford a few dollars to get it delivered???? Noooo she called to ask me if i could help them move the furniture into their house. I drive over and after removing the front door we managed to get her sofa, Chair and Loveseat inside. I noticed their driveway had lots of snow still on it. I offered to blow the snow off for them. Now i have to explain that their driveway is connected to the neighours, and it just so happens that i know she is divorced and is a friend of my wifes. So your getting a picture of what happens next.???? I spent a couple of hours and have cleaned 2 more driveways. Its now 5:30 and getting quit dark. But im done!!!
                   So i spent most of the day and a couple of tanks of gas in my blower to clean 6 driveways. MY a - - is dragging tonite. Carol ran a hot bath for me and that sure felt good. Now im going to add a joke and call it a early nite.  Please no more snow for a while !!!!!   Take Care.
                   ps..Linda tells me its raining in florida.
                 
              Little boy lost at the mall

    A little boy was lost at a large shopping mall.

    He approached a uniformed security guard and said, "I've lost my grandpa!"

    The cop asked, "What's he like?"

    The little boy replied, "Jack Daniels and women with big boobs."

       Subject:  The Best Comeback Line Ever
      

    The Best Comeback Line Ever

    Marine Corp's General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day and you have to read his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children.


    Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!!!!
    This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation.



    FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?


    GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.


    FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?


    GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.


    FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?


    GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.


    FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping them to become violent killers.


    GENERAL REINWALD: Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?


    The radio went silent and the interview ended.


    You gotta love the Marines.

    Ohhh baby its Cold Out Side

     
     
     
     
     
             Its turned really cold this weekend. I spent most of the day at home. I did go out for a couple of hours this afternoon to hit balls at the indoor golf. Spent most of the day watching tv and spending time on this computer. I watched the skins game from Palm Springs this afternoon and  it brought back memories of our golf trip there a couple of years ago. We were there for a week and each day was warm and the wind never blew at all. We saw a lot of windmills on our drive out from LA. So im sure it does blow there. And today at the Skins Game the wind wasnt blowing, making it a lot easier to play well.
            No hockey games this weekend for our junior team. I plan on skating with my team tomorrow morning for a hour. I had my skates sharpend and new laces put into them.....watch me go now lol. I bought some hockey tape for my old stick as well now that im back playing again. With this cold spell lasting for a few more days im making plans to go ice fishing next weekend.  Ok i guess that about it for now ...just a little something to but a smile on your face . :)     Play Safe...
     

    10 things in golf that sound dirty

     

    1. Look at the size of his putter.

    2. Oh, dang, my shaft's all bent.

    3. You really wacked the hell out of that sucker.

    4. After 18 holes I can barely walk.

    5. My hands are so sweaty I can't get a good grip.

    6. Lift your head and spread your legs.

    7. You have a nice stroke, but your follow through leaves a lot to be desired.

    8. Just turn your back and drop it.

    9. Hold up. I've got to wash my balls.

    10. Damn, I missed the hole again.

    Its Time..

     
     
            Its time to go bowling and i only have a minute to leave a story. Seeing its thankgiving in the usa i have a turkey story for you.

               PREGNANT TURKEY STORY

         Last year at Thanksgiving time, my mom went to my sister's house for the traditional holiday feast. Knowing how gullible my sister is, my mom decided to play a trick. She told my sister that she needed something from the store and asked if my sister wouldn't mind going out to get it.

        When my sister left the house, my mom took the turkey out of the oven, removed the mixed stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen, and inserted it into the turkey... then re-stuffed the turkey. She then placed the bird(s) back into the oven.

       When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the turkey out of the oven and proceeded to remove the stuffing. When her serving spoon hit something, she reached in and pulled out the little bird. With a look of total shock on her face, my mother exclaimed, "Barbara, you've cooked a pregnant bird!" At the reality of this horrifying news, my sister started to cry hysterically. It took the entire family almost two hours to convince her that turkeys lay eggs! Yes, my sister is a BLONDE

    Good Old Hump day

                           
     
               Wow its the middle of the week already. Work has been going a little slow this week. We were short a man on monday and yesterday and today i have one that is at home sick. I moved a couple of things back a day and hope that will work out fine. This morning was physiotherapy day and Heidi told me not to come back for a couple of weeks......Yessssss. Ill be so glad when this it over.
              Woke up this morning to a light rain, but the forecast is for very cold by the weekend. The ice on the lake should be thick enough to go fishing very soon. Im waiting to catch a Walleye to frie and eat.
             So i just made some coffee and fried some bacon and eggs as i heard carol in the shower. Im making my version on a Egg Mcmuffin. I toast the english muffins and add a  cooked egg and a couple of slices of bacon. A slice of cheese and 30 seconds in the microwave. Not a bad breakfast if i do say myself.
             We are off now to see my accountant about my yearend. See if  i make as much as carol spent this year  LOL.
    After our meeting im going to work and do some preping for tomorrow when my guys will start spraying at the Toyota dealership. Im going to find time this afternoon for my gym workout as well.
          Well take Care..... (busy day here)
    November 19

    No Hockey!!!

            This morning i packed my hockey gear and headed to the rink at 8 am for a skate with the boys. My plans changed when i arrived at the rink to find the fellow i had given my skates to for sharpening did not come for the morning skate. lol. So instead of skating i went to Tim Hortons for a coffee and i picked up 2 breakfast sandwiches for carol and myself. I now have to go to the gym for my workout instead of skating this morning.

                I checked on Kristy this morning and she tells me its been raining hard there for the last few days. The little snow they had is melted and this morning its +8 and raining. I have a few of her pics that ill post in my photos for those that are interested in seeing some nice pics.

             There will be a pic at the end of this blog of my daughter "Cassidy" and a couple of her girl friends that i took at her graduation. One of the ladies shops in the city is using it in a 1/2 page add in the local paper. Im thinking as a Paparazzi i maybe intitled to a fee for the photo lol. My daughter is the one on the left by the way.

              Our daughter...."Kristy" (that lives in Prince Rupert) has a interesting pic of a sign down by the shore line. It reads " ENTERING Tsunami Hazard Zone" I know that we dont have any signs that say that here in the prairies lol.

               Well its "Gray Cup Weekend" in Winnipeg. Thats the Canadian version of the Super Bowl game in the states. I hear the statium is sold out and tickets are being scalped for big dollars. I have been invited over to a friends house to watch the game...but i dont know if i want to go to work on monday with a hangover lol. It maybe wise of me to watch it at home this evening with carol.

     Play Safe...C-YA

    Weeks...End

     
     
     
     
              Yesterday was a full day, worked in the morning and went golfing in the afternoon. Went out for a couple of drinks and supper with Carol. Took in a hockey game( home team won 6-4). When we returned home we had tea and a piece of brownie that carol had baked that afternoon.
              Today i plan on going out to check on the cottage. We havent been out for a few weeks and i like to check up on things. I hear the lake is frozen over put i doubt that the ice is thick enough to go out on it yet. Ill check on the thickness by walking out a ways and chopping a few holes.
              We are still getting calls from people who want a estimate on painting their exteriors of their homes. Geees its frickin cold...wait tell spring. I should tell them im not interested and they should call someone elses. I have no intention of painting any outside homes in spring either.
              I have been waiting for my insurance company rep to make a appearance. I was told that they would be sending someone out to check on my recovery. We have made a doctors appointment for the 11th of this month and i want to get a complete physical done just to make sure all my parts are working right lol.
              Our days are sure getting short now. The sun is just starting to come up and its almost 8:30. Soon we will have the shorting daylight and the longest nite. Its great for people that like or can sleepin. Down side is we use alot more electricity during this time.
              Well its time for a boiled egg and a coffee. Oh just to let you know its -8 this morning.
                      Catch you later.
     
              And Now for todays Joke:
           She is in the kitchen preparing to boil eggs for breakfast. He walks in.  She turns and says, "You've got to make love to me -- this very moment."
     
    His eyes light up and he thinks, "This is my lucky day." Not wanting to lose the moment, he embraces her and then gives it his all on the kitchen table.
     
    Afterwards she says, "Thanks," and returns to the stove. More than a little puzzled, he asks, "What was that all about?" She explains, "The egg timer's broken."

    PhysioTherapy

            
             This morning i made my usual trip to my physiotherapist. She gave me a new excerise to do at the gym. After doing a little work this morning i went to the gym at 3 this afternoon. After spending some time on the treadmill i went through my stretches. Did some abs and a few weights. Did a 10 minute tan and a shower. Was home by 5. After i checked my blog i decided that Shelly's poem needed tobe included in today blog for all who visit my space can have a chance to read it. I thank you Shelly. Enjoy the read people. 
     
           FRIENDS ~

    As we walk our path of life,
    We meet people everyday.
    Most are simply met by chance.
    But, some are sent our way.
     
    These become special friends
    Whose bond we can't explain;
    The ones who understand us
    And share our joy and pain.

    Their love contains no boundaries.
    So, even we are apart.
    Their presence enhances us
    With a warmth felt in the heart.

    This love becomes a passageway,
    When even the miles disappear.
    And so, these friends, God sends our way,
    Remain forever near

        Golf With The Pope
    One day a man named Bob was playing a round of golf with the Pope. On the first hole,Bob hits the ball into a sand trap "Damn, I missed." says Bob. The Pope says,"you shouldn't say that it is bad.
    Later on in the day on the ninth hole Bob hits the ball into the water. "Damn, I missed." says Bob again. The Pope says, "Don't say that, next time you do, God will strike you down with a lightning bolt."
    Close to the end of the day on the last hole, Bob hits it an inch short of the hole. "Damn, I missed." says Bob once again. The Pope looks into the sky as the clouds start to split apart. Then a lightning bolt comes down from heaven, striking and killing the Pope. God's voice echos, "Damn, I missed."

    Holiday Monday

     
     
     
            GoodMorning....Carol just cooked bacon and eggs with hash browns and toast. MMMM and im full. Now im going to have my coffee and do some blogging.
            
            This afternoon we have the funeral for our friend GG. His wife has asked that all of his golfing buddies meet in the basement of the church and will be taken up and setted together as a group. She has made us honorary Pall bearers......a nice jester on her part. So we well all get together to say one last goodbye to a friend we will all miss. GG was one of the 3 guys with me the day i got my first hole in one.
     
             Cassidy has a dentist appointment this morning and she want me to get a oil change for her car before she returns to regina tonite. I have to stop at Staples today and pick up a new mouse for this computer. Between Carol and the kids we have worn this poor little thing out lol. I have another that i won at some golf event but its roller doesnt roll very will and its garbage. Ill pick up a good one at staples and we will be back to normal.
          
              Ill find a golf joke to add today. In a little tribute to my friend who was quite a joker and always had a smile and a story to tell.
     
     
     
         " The old Golfer "
            Moses, Jesus and an old man are golfing.
            Moses steps up to the tee and hits the ball. It goes sailing over the fairway and lands in the water trap. Moses parts the water and chips the ball onto the green.
            Jesus steps up to the tee and hits the ball. It goes sailing over the fairway and lands in the water trap. Jesus just walks on the water and chips the ball onto the green.
           The old man steps up to the tee and hits the ball. It goes sailing over the fairway and heads for the water trap. But, just before it falls into the water, a fish jumps up and grabs the ball in its mouth. As the fish is falling back down into the water, an eagle swoops down and grabs the fish in its claws. The eagle flies over the green where a lightning bolt shoots from the sky and barely misses it. Startled, the eagle drops the fish. When the fish hits the ground, the ball pops out of its mouth and rolls into the hole for a hole-in-one.
           Jesus then turns to the old man and says, "Dad, if you don't stop fooling around, we won't bring you next time."

    In Flanders Fields

     
      
                   "IN Flanders Fields"
               In Flanders fields the poppies blow
                          Between the crosses, row on row,
                          That mark our place; and in the sky
                          The larks, still bravely singing, fly
                          Scarce heard amid the guns below.
     
                          We are the Dead. Short days ago
                          We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
                          Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
                          In Flanders fields.
     
                         Take up our quarrel with the foe:
                         To you from failing hands we throw
                         The torch; be yours to hold it high.
                         If ye break faith with us who die
                         We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
                         In Flanders fields.

                Well Carol is home . She got in late last nite .....around 1am. She said her trip back went well just was a little rushed in the Pheonix airport as going through security took so long they had to rush to get to the flight gate. Being the airline is West Jet and a new airline that has just started flying into Pheonix their gates are at the very end of the terminal. Carol said she liked the heat but i dont think she is a fan of the desert.lol.
    She would sooner have a tropical climate and a ocean view lol.
                Yes terday as our daughter was driving home she phoned be about getting a oil change done on her Mustange. I informed her that i could have it done on monday. However as the day went by i  found out friends of mine that were going out with me last nite could not find a sitter for their 2 young daughters. Thinking for a minute i said that i may know someone  who  could use some spending money .... lol. After a quick cellphone call i had Cassidy agreeing to sit for our friends. Our evening went well and Cassidy made 65 dollars.  And now for a laugh or two ......................................
     
     
     

    SOCIAL SECURITY SEX

    Two  men were talking. "So, how's your sex life?"  "Oh, nothing special. I'm having Social Security sex." "Social Security sex?"  "Yeah, you know; I get a little each month, but not enough to live on!"  

     

                                                                                                                                  

     -LOUD SEX    

    A wife went in to see a therapist and said, "I've got a big problem, doctor. Every time we're in bed and my husband climaxes, he lets out this ear splitting yell."  "My dear," the shrink said, "that's completely natural. I don't see what the problem is."  "The problem is," she complained, "it wakes me up!" 

    - QUIET SEX

    Tired of a listless sex life, the man came right out and asked his wife during a recent lovemaking session, "How come you never tell me when you have an orgasm?" She glanced at him casually and replied, "You're never home!"

    - CONFOUNDED SEX 

    A man was in a terrible accident, and his "manhood" was mangled and torn from his body. His doctor assured him that modern medicine could give him back his manhood, but that his insurance wouldn't cover the surgery since it was considered cosmetic. The doctor said the cost would be $3,500 for "small, $6,500 for "medium, $14,000 for "large."  The man was sure he would want a medium or large, but the doctor urged him to talk it over with his wife before he made any decision. The man called his wife on the phone and explained their options. The doctor came back into the room, and found the man looking dejected.  "Well, what have the two of you decided?" asked the doctor. The man answered, "She'd rather remodel the kitchen." 

    - WEDDING ANNIVERSARY SEX

    A husband and his wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary. The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads:  'Here Lies My Wife-Cold As Ever'."  "Yeah," she replies, "when you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads:  Here Lies My Husband - Stiff At Last.'" 

    -WOMEN'S HUMOROUS SEX

     My husband came home with a tube of K-Y jelly and said, "This will make you happy tonight."  He was right.  When he went out of the bedroom, I squirted it all over the doorknobs. He couldn't get back in. 

    - ELDERLY SEX 

    One night an 87 year old woman came home from Bingo to find her 92 year old husband in bed with another woman. She became violent and ended up pushing him off the balcony of their 20th floor. Killing him instantly.  Brought before the court on charge of murder, the judge asked her if she had anything to say in her defense.  She began coolly, "Yes, your honour, I figured that at 92, if he could have sex .. He could fly."

    Oh Canada

                       
     
                           Canada:  Country Overview Until you have actually traveled around Canada, it is difficult to imagine how big and unspoiled it really is.
               It stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the latitude of Rome to beyond the Magnetic North Pole. Its archetypal landscapes are the Rocky Mountain lakes and peaks, the endless forests and the prairie wheat fields, but Canada holds landscapes that defy expectations: rainforest and desert lie close together in the southwest corner of the country, while in the east a short drive can take you from fjords to lush orchards. What's more, great tracts of Canada are completely unspoiled. dense forests are home to moose and bears, whales surface off the country's vast coastline and lakes teem with freshwater fish.
              In addition, there are plenty of outdoor sports opportunities, from canoeing down fast-moving rivers to skiing and snowboarding in one of Canada's resorts.
             Although it is the second-largest country in world after the Russian Federation, it has a population of less than 30 million, of which ninety percent of the country's population lives within 100 miles of the US border. Much of the countryside is virtually untouched; But these are not the only reasons why students choose to study in Canada. 'It is a country of harmonious contrast where cultural differences, geographical opposites and social contrasts peacefully co-exist.
              Like its neighbor to the south, Canada is a spectrum of cultures, a hotchpotch of immigrant groups who supplanted the continent's many native peoples. There's a crucial difference, though. Whereas citizens of the United States are encouraged to perceive themselves as Americans above all else, Canada's concertedly multicultural approach has done more to acknowledge the origins of its people, creating an ethnic mosaic as opposed to America's "melting-pot".
             Alongside the French and British majorities live a host of communities who maintain the traditions of their homelands – Chinese, Ukrainians, Portuguese, Indians, Dutch, Polish, Greek and Spanish, to name just the most numerous. For the visitor, the mix that results from the country's exemplary tolerance is an exhilarating experience, offering such widely differing environments as Vancouver's huge Chinatown and the austere religious enclaves of Manitoba.
            Canadians themselves, however, are often troubled by the lack of a clear self-image, tending to emphasize the ways in which they are different from the US as a means of self-description.
            The question "What is a Canadian?" has acquired a new immediacy with the interminable and acrimonious debate over Québec and its possible secession, but ultimately there can be no simple characterization of a people whose country is not so much a single nation as a committee on a continental scale.
            Pierre Berton, one of Canada's finest writers, wisely ducked the issue; Canadians, he quipped, are "people who know how to make love in a canoe". The typical Canadian might be an elusive concept, but you'll find there's a distinctive feel to the country. Some towns might seem a touch too well-regulated and unspontaneous, but against this there's the overwhelming sense of Canadian pride in their history and pleasure in the beauty of their land.
           Canada embraces its own clichés with an energy that's irresistible, promoting everything from the Calgary Stampede to maple-syrup festivals and lumber jacking contests with an extraordinary zeal and openness.
           As John Buchan, writer and Governor-General of Canada, said, "You have to know a man awfully well in Canada to know his surname."    
            Few countries in the world offer as many choices to the world traveler as Canada. Whether your passion is skiing, sailing, museum-combing or indulging in exceptional cuisine, Canada has it all.
           Western Canada is renowned for its stunningly beautiful countryside. Stroll through Vancouver’s Stanley Park, overlooking the blue waters of English Bay or ski the slopes of world-famous Whistler-Blackcomb, surrounded by thousands of hectares of pristine forest land. For a cultural experience, you can take an Aboriginal nature hike to learn about Canada’s First Nations’ history and cuisine, while outdoors men can river-raft, hike or heli-ski the thousands of kilometers of Canada’s back country, where the memories of gold prospectors and pioneers still flourish today.
            By contrast, Eastern Canada mixes the flavor and charm of Europe with the bustle of trendy New York. Toronto boasts an irresistible array of ethnic restaurants, bakeries and shops to tempt the palate, while Charlottetown, Canada’s birthplace, is located amidst the rolling fields and sandy Atlantic beaches of Prince Edward Island. Between the two, ancient Québec City is a world unto itself: the oldest standing citadel in North America and the heart of Quebecois hospitality.
           Of course, don’t forget Northern Canada, where planes or all-terrain vehicles are sometimes the most common forms of transport and wildlife viewing is at its best.
          Whatever your passion, Canada has a place for it.

              A woman comes home from work wearing a new gold necklace. "Where did you get that necklace?" her husband asks.
              "I won it in a raffle at work," she replies. "Now go prepare my bath."
               The next day, the woman comes home wearing a diamond bracelet. Where did you get that bracelet?" the man asks.
               "I won it in a raffle at work," she replies. "Now go prepare my bath."
                The day after, the woman comes home wearing a mink coat. " I suppose you won that in a raffle at work?" the man says.
                Why, yes," the wife replies. "Now go prepare my bath."

                  Ok let me see ...i had coffee with a few of my friends this morning and we talked about the death of our friend. It was very helpful and i felt a lot better afterwards.
                  Its gettting very cold tonite as the forcast is for -15 celsius. With the rain and snow over the last 2 days its very treacherous to drive and even worse to try and walk on the sidewalks. Dam i hate this weather!!!!
                  I got a call from Carol this evening from Phoenix. The weather there has been great. Its very hot during the day but cools of nicely in the evening. She said that she had just gotten back from the pool, and Colleen was pouring her a Rum. lol . That sounds like my Carol.
                 This is our "Rememberance Day Weekend". Its the time of year that we remember our veterans who fought and died that we may enjoy the way of life we now have. A visual sign we use is a Red Poppy...one that i ware on my left lapell. I Remember ....and Say THANK YOU to all our vets and soldiers who fought and are fighting for what we believe in.

           Charlie wanted desperately to have $ex with this really cute, really hot girl in his office.... but she was dating someone else. One day Charlie got so frustrated that he went to her and said, "I'll give you a $100 if you let me have sex with you."
              The girl looked at him, then said, "NO."
              Charlie said, "I'll be real fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down, and I'll finish by the time you've picked it up."
              She thought for a moment and said that she would consult with her boyfriend, so she called him and explained the situation.
              Her boyfriend says, "Ask him for $200, pick up the money really fast. He won't even be able to get his pants down."
              She agreed and accepts the proposal. Over half an hour goes by and the boyfriend is still waiting for his girlfriend's call. Finally, after 45 minutes the boyfriend calls and asks what happened.
              Still breathing hard, she managed to reply,
              "The bastard had all quarters!"

    Day "Three"

     
     
                Well its "Hump Day" for some people....Not for me .lol.
         It rained most of the day and late this afternoon the rain turned into snow. Not a good combination. This is getting us ajusted to winter in a  hurry. The weather is not that cold but with the slippery streets and highways if feels like mid winter. I shovelled the driveway and sidewalks when i got home. First time this winter.
         I had my physiotherapy this morning and Heidi  ( My physiotherapist) figures ill have to go for at least another 3 weeks of treatments.
        Now the good news ....Heidi has allowed me to return to the gym. With this news from her this morning i made a trip to the gym this afternoon. I backed my weights up to where i started in december of last year. My work out went well and i saw a lot of familiar faces that greeted me with smiles and encouragement. I managed to walk on the treadmill for 25 minutes.....well its a start. :)
         Its not that cool out this evening so for supper im going to lite the barbie and cook a couple of cheese burgers. mmmmm i can taste them already lol.
         Today was interesting forme .....for the reason that i was going to wash my dishes for the first time scents carol left on sunday. Now how hard can it be to turn on the dishwasher ??? So i load a few more dishes and check for soap. I open this little door and wala there is soap already in the compartment (She is a step a head of me already adding the soap). So now i close the doo r and look at the dile mmmmm what to set it at??? I see "light and China" ...I rule that one out." Normal wash" Now thats a possibility."Heavy Wash" now im thinking ...some of these dishes have been dirty for quite sometime now. I decide on heavy wash .....figuring that a little extra wash cant hurt. I turn the dile and sounds start to come from the washer ...Good. When i returned home the washer was quiet. I open the door and what do you know i have clean dishes. LOL (thinking now that maybe i could try and wash some clothes Next!!!!!)
     
     
             Well i better go and cook those burgers . .....No joke yetttt....will try and add one later.

    November 07

    Dont drink the water!!!

                 
           First  I want to thank Kadrin for this joke..
     
     
     
                A minister was completing a Temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said, "And if i had all the beer in the world,I'd take it and pour it into the river," With even greater emphasis he said,"And if i had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river." And then finally, shaking his fist n the air, he said,"And if i had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river."
     
                Sermon completed, he sat down. The song leader stood very cautiouslly and announced with a smile, nearly laughing ...
                 "For our closing song, Let us sing Hymn #365.."SHALL WE GATHER AT THE RIVER"..................................
     

    Day "Two"

     
     
     
     
                  Lets start today with a Joke.
           
     
         A Catholic Priest was about to finish his tour of duty, and was leaving his Mission in the forest where he has spent years teaching the natives when he realizes that the one thing he never taught them was how to speak English.
          So he takes the chief for a walk in the forest. He points to a tree and says to the chief, "This is a tree." The chief looks at the tree and grunts, "Tree." The Priest pleased with the response.
          They walk a little farther and he points to a rock and says, "This is a rock." Hearing this, the chief looks and grunts, "Rock." The Priest was really getting enthusiastic about the results when he hears a rustling in the bushes. As they peek over the top, he sees a couple of natives in the midst of heavy sexual activity.
          The Priest is flustered and quickly says, "Man riding a bike." The chief looks at the couple briefly, pulls out his blowgun and quickly shoots several poison darts, killing them in seconds.
          The Priest goes ballistic and yells at the chief that he has spent years teaching the tribe how to be civilized and kind to each other, so how could he kill these people in cold blood that way?
     
           The chief replied, "My bike."
     
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     
     
     
                   Woke up this morning to find it raining. Now thats normally is not a problem but when its -2 and raining that means ICE.... And a lot of it. Our streets and highways were sheets of ice. Traffic was slowed to a crawl. I managed to get around town today and got most of my stuff done. The forecast for tonite and tomorrow is for more rain. (Not what we need)
            I decided on what ill have for supper tonite....Im going to cook a meal of KFC. LOL. Carol left me a coupon so it will be cheaper. LOL. 
          PLay Safe friends...
     
     
     
     Ps.. I cant wait tell my bike gets home so i can go for a ride .....lol.

            Off to Pheonix
               A man came home from work one day to find his wife on the front porch with her bags packed. 'Just where the heck do you think you're going!', said the man. 'I'm going to Pheonix', said the wife, 'I just found out I can get $400 a night for what I give you for free!
                    'The man said, 'Wait a minute!', and then ran inside the house only to come back a few minutes later with his suitcases in hand.        'Where the heck are you going?', said the wife.
                    The man said, 'I want to see how you're gonna live on $800 a year
