Alan & Gloria joined Mom, DD, Tracey & me at the Cracker Barrel last evening for dinner.  Our waitress was a bit bumbling but was cheerful about it.  She spilled iced tea into the sugar bowl and then tried to dump some in Gloria’s lap.  She attempted to drench Tracey and DD in coffee too.  She forgot things and was generally slow, but she was very cheerful about it.  Somebody suggested she be tested for drugs.  She had that stoned to the rafters attitude about her.  We didn’t grumble too much though because ... well ... she was just so cheerful about it.  We went to Mom’s trailer after and enjoyed some conversation.  It seems I write almost the same thing here every Sunday morning.  A basic variation of the common theme that seems almost boring as I type and probably even more boring for you to read ... but our Saturday night visits really are a lot of fun.  I look forward to them every week.  Perhaps the same people and the same conversations are so much the better for the love we share.

I have started frequenting some of the local blogs and adding my 2¢ here and there.  A couple of them have added my blog to their listing of links but so far none have posted here.  That’s OK ... I still enjoy a good discussion (or argument) as long as it doesn’t get too out of hand.  I have already discovered there are a few local bloggers notorious for their abrasive replies but I have yet to tangle with them.  All in good time I guess.  For my part I would as soon avoid the animosity and just argue the points or merits of an issue, but it can get personal out of frustration.  Anyway, should you see some new names pop up here it would be because I have ventured out to stir other pots.

In the picture above you can see it was snowing this Easter Sunday.  It was really snowing hard when I took the picture but this picture doesn’t do it justice.  I think the cardinal and the squirrel were as surprised as I was!  Tracey says there is an old saying that if it rains on Easter Sunday it will rain the next seven Sundays ... but what does it do if it SNOWS on Easter Sunday?  Maybe I should keep the snow blower out just in case? 
(Once again Tammy beat me with a comment before I actually wrote this!)

Worst Jobs In The World

Comments   (0)   /Pictures/2008/worstjobs/0323.php

Men Are Just Happier People
NICKNAMES
If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah.

If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes.

EATING OUT
When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in $20, even though it’s only for $42.50.  None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.

When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.

MONEY
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.

A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn’t need but it’s on sale.

BATHROOMS
A man has six items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel.

The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337.  A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items.

ARGUMENTS
A woman has the last word in any argument.

Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

CATS
Women love cats.

Men say they love cats, but when women aren’t looking, men kick cats.

FUTURE
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

SUCCESS
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

MARRIAGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.

A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, but she does.

DRESSING UP
A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the bins, answer the phone, read a book, and get the post.

A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.

NATURAL
Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.

Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

OFFSPRING
Ah, children.  A woman knows all about her children.  She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favourite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.

A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A married man should forget his mistakes.

There’s no use in two people remembering the same thing.
