August 30 I ResignRESIGNATION I am hereby officially tendering my resignation as an adult. I have decided I would like to accept the responsibilities of an 8 year-old again. I want to go to McDonald's and think that it's a four star restaurant. I want to sail sticks across a fresh mud puddle and make a sidewalk with rocks. I want to think M&Ms are better than money because you can eat them. I want to lie under a big oak tree and run a lemonade stand with my friends on a hot summer's day. I want to return to a time when life was simple, when all you knew were colors, multiplication tables, and nursery rhymes,but that didn't bother you, because you didn't know what you didn't know and you didn't care. All you knew was to be happy because you were blissfully unaware of all the things that should make you worried or upset. I want to think the world is fair. That everyone is honest and good. I want to believe that anything is possible. I want to be oblivious to the complexities of life and be overly excited by the little things again. I want to live simple again. I don't want my day to consist of computer crashes, mountains of paperwork, depressing news, how to survive more days in the month than there is money in the bank, doctor bills, gossip, illness, and loss of loved ones. I want to believe in the power of smiles, hugs, a kind word, truth, justice, peace, dreams, the imagination, mankind, and making angels in the snow. So . . . here's my checkbook and my car keys, my credit card bills and my 401K statements. I am officially resigning from adulthood. And if you want to discuss this further, you'll have to catch me first, cause............."Tag! You're it." Pass this to someone and brighten their day by helping them remember the Simple Things in Life. ((((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))) August 13 Sundays Joke Louisiana swimming hole
An elderly man in Louisiana had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back.
It was properly shaped for swimming, so he fixed it up nice -- picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and some apple and peach trees.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while, and look it over. He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.
As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"
The old man frowned, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked." Holding the bucket up he said, "I'm here to feed the alligator."
Moral: Some old men can still think fast... August 11 19 are you sure??? Ok its true today our baby girl turns 19, and on Aug 3rd our oldest daughter turned 27. The fact that im 50 doesnt make me feel old but having kids that are adults sure does.
Dad wishes both his girls a Happy Birthday. OH Yea!!!!! Carol and her friend were having lunch on Albert Street and discussing cosmetic surgery. Carols friend says, "I need to be honest with you. I'm getting a boob job done. Carol replys by saying, "Oh that's nothing! I'm thinking of having my asshole bleached!" To which carols friend replies, "Wow...I just can't picture garth as a blonde." August 08 Who turned up the heat ???? Wow it was another cooker here today. With all this heat our grass is turning brown. Temps reached into the mid 30s today and looks like the same for a few more days as well.
Its been a while sents i have wrighten a blog entry. So i maybe long winded tonite. We returned from the cottage this morning and returned to work. Things are quit busy at the store and as well with my painting company. After organizing my workers this morning i went to the paint store to fix a paint shaker and clean the rental sprayer....sounds like fun stuff right lol.
It was nice to return home this evening to a nice meal and the cool confinds of our home. Love that air conditioning these day. Ill up date u on my request for disablity insurance. I have had a policy for over 25 years. So im thinking i should be able to collect some funds after my surger...Right ...Well todate no money coming my way. As of last week i have recieved only more forms to fill out as well as more forms for my DR. to fill out. Alright its only been 9 weeks sents by surgery.They have to make sure i had the surgery and that im not trying to scam then out of their....wait im thinking its my money!!!!
If i had put aside all the premiums i have given then over the years id have more money then ill ever get out of this policy. Anyway the idea when i bought the policy was that if i was hurt and not able to work that we would have some income to tied us over untell i was able to work again. I guess what im saying is 20 years ago if i had to go 9 weeks with out working it would have been finanically tough. Today its not a big deal ...BUT...is this the way they treat all of their clients????? All i know is after im done with this claim they wont have to worry about me again...Ill be sending them a nice letter telling them to cancel my policy and Good Bye.
There now i feel better. Now for some good news.. im able to golf again. I played 3 rounds on the weekend at the lake course. Playing to a 80 on Saturday, a 76 on Sunday and another 76 on Monday. Feels good to play and not have that pain. Still a little rusty after the layoff but im looking for better things as i play more. Just one little hitch...my dr and my phisio lady are under the conseption that i wont try golfing untell the end of August. OOOPS. Well if they dont know... it wont hurt them will it????
One last thing ...on the 19th of August we will be moving my daughter to Prince Rupert , BC. Canada. The trip will take the better part of 2 weeks. So no golfing untell the end of August ...LOL.
