It looks like the Old Year is going to be Sunny and not to cold at least during the day. Have plans of what I was going to do. but dont know if I will get any of it done. Don't feel the pressure to get anything done. LOL. Anyway will be watching grandson tonight so we will watch the ball drop together. That is good. Have a safe day

I did walk to work this morning it was a great walk Ms Sun kept her rays on me the whole way. And some brave birds were singing up a storm which surprised me as it was chilly. But it really wasnt that bad. We were sent home early but even that didnt upset me. It was colder because of the wind by this time. But, went up town to do some business rode the bus. But, just now at 10:30pm I heard a rattleing at the windows and door and reaized that we are having the gusting winds again. But, it isnt raining so that is okay. Because actually I like listening to the wind. Even opened the door and breathed in all that fresh air. Was going to take BA out but he went to the door felt the wind and turned around and went back to bed. Guess he doesnt have to go that bad. Well tomorrow is New Year's eve Just seems like yesterday we were celebrating this. One thing I am looking forward to is the days getting longer. There I go wishing my life away. But, I do like daylight wiht the beautiful sun shning and the birds a singing. Anyway if the wind doesnt blow us away. I will post tomorrow. I thank all of you that have been standing by me these last few weeks you dont know how much I appricate it. You are all special people and this blogsite is special. I hope you all realize what we have here is a community of smart caring people that make for a beautiful community of friends. Hugs

The sun is out they say it should be cloudy this afternoon but the sun is out this morning. And evening I might take the bus as they are free rides until the first. But, the sun is out so even though it is cold I think I will walk. Some company sent me a Pedometer think I might use that just to see how many steps I take. Well, maybe not dont know if I want to know Was just thinking the Year is winding down and it is a time to reflect. But, I have decided I am going to do a year in review. But, it is going to be a positive year in review. Because there was positive and that is what I want to give tribute to and not the other issues. Then no resolutions just maybe a list of probablities. Anyway better get busy or I will have to take the bus to get there on time. Hugs to all Have a great sunny day

I just realized that Kelly has deleted her blog. I knew she was taking time off and posting a little at a time. But, I didnt realize she was thinking of deleting all together. I will miss seeing and hearing from her. Hugs and prayers for her. And missing her already.

There comes a point in your life when you realize:
Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won't anymore...
And who always will.
So, don't worry about people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.
Give these flowers to everyone you don't want to lose in 2009.

First Merry Christmas to all. Hope you all have a great special days. I want to thank you all and send Hugs your way for the moral support that has come my way during this time. Second there has been a special Angel sent my way to help me. This person is a special person with out her help I don't know what I would have done. She knows who she is and my heart is over flowing with graditude for this help. I must apolized for the ranting I did but I had fianlly reached a limit of no return. I will pull out but i will say if it wasnt for my angel I dont think it would have happened. So again Merry Christmas to this Angel and to all of you.

Waste of energy to go to work but better than sitting here waiting for the sherif to come

Well, I got my secret santa fellow. Must say he is new to me but that is great as am always wanting to me new people. Looking over his profile I see is is no the Blogship Lollipop with me. Very sorry I didnt introduce my self. So here goes. First, Let me wish you a very Merry Christmas from Freeasthewind a very free spirit. First, I see he has been a member on uk since 2007 which is not as new as I thought. I see that he belongs to two other groups as well. Reading some of his back blogs does seem like he travels alot.
Very intersting. And I can see he has a nice sense of humour. I think everyone should stop by and visit and wish him a merry christmas. If this seems short for me. I am new I hope friend and will try and get to know him better. Merry Christmas to all

I love this version. I hope you all do to. It is really different than the orginal

All I can say is to listen to it all the way through. First time I heard it was driving to work and had to pull over I was laughing so hard. This is from famous radio show call Bob and Tom. Thier show is unbelieveable. I have had to pull over a number of times because I was laughing so hard. So I hope you enjoy

I have been trying to put music on the MP3 player. And as of this moment cant figure it out. So I am going to wait until this weekend and maybe then figure it or admit I have no idea what to do. But, I swear how hard can it be. My son is sitting there snickering as I told him I knew what to do . Again how hard can it be

It's a romantic full moon, when Pedro said, "Hey, mamacita, let's do
Weeweechu."

Oh no, not now, let's look at the moon!" said Rosita.

Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I do Weeweechu. I love you and it's the
perfect time," Pedro begged.

"But I wanna just hold your hand and watch the moon." replied Rosita.

Please, Rosita, just once, do Weeweechu with me."

Rosita looked at Pedro and said, "OK, one time, we'll do Weeweechu."

Pedro grabbed his guitar and they both sang.....

"Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, Weeweechu
a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year."

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

"Life is too short to wake up in
the morning with regrets,

so love the people who treat you right,
forget about the ones who don't,

and believe that everything
happens for a reason.

If you get a chance, take it.

If it changes your life, let it.

Nobody said life would be easy,

they just promised it would be worth it."

Give this heart to everyone you care. I just hope that when you hear my name you smile and say,
" THATS MY FRIEND !"

Todays Chuckle!
I bet this is going to make you smile....

� A little girl asked her mother: 'How did the human race appear?' The mothe r answered, 'God made Adam and Eve; they had children; and so was all mankind made.' Two days later the girl asked her father the same question. The father answered, 'Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved.' The confused girl returned to her mother and said, 'Mum, how is it possible that you told me the human race was created by God, and Dad said they developed from monkeys?' The mother answered, 'Well, Dear, it is very simple. I told you about my side of the family, and your father told you about his.'� �

A lesson to be learned from typing the wrong email address!

A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier.

Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day. The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an email to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her email address, and without realizing his error, sent the email.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston , a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister who was called home to glory following a heart attack.

The widow decided to check her email expecting messages from relatives and friends. After reading the first message, she screamed and fainted.

The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read:

To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've Arrived
Date: October 16, 2007

I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send emails to your loved ones.

I've just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.

P.S Sure is freaking hot down here!

A Japanese company (Toyota) and an American company (GM) decided to have
a canoe race on the Missouri River. Both teams practiced long and hard
to reach their peak performance before the race.

On the big day, the Japanese won by a mile.

The Americans, very discouraged and depressed, decided to investigate
the reason for the crushing defeat. A management team made up of senior
management was formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action.

Their conclusion was the Japanese had 8 people rowing and 1 person
steering, while the American team had 8 people steering and 1 person
rowing.

Feeling a deeper study was in order, American management hired a
consulting company and paid them a large amount of money for a second
opinion.

They advised, of course, that too many people were steering the boat,
while not enough people were rowing. Not sure of how to utilize that
information, but wanting to prevent another loss to the Japanese, the
rowing team's management structure was totally reorganized to 4 steering
supervisors, 3 area steering superintendents, and 1 assistant
superintendent steering manager.

They also implemented a new performance system that would give the 1
person rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder. It was called
the 'Rowing Team Quality First Program,' with meetings, dinners, and
free pens for the rower.. There was discussion of getting new paddles,
canoes, and other equipment, extra vacation days for practices and
bonuses.

The next year the Japanese won by two miles.

Humiliated, the American management laid off the rower for poor
performance, halted development of a new canoe, sold the paddles, and
canceled all capital investments for new equipment. The money saved was
distributed to the Senior Executives as bonuses and the next year's
racing team was out-sourced to India.

The End.

Sadly,
Here's something else to think about:

GM has spent the last thirty years moving all its factories out of the
US claiming they can't make money paying American wages.

TOYOTA has spent the last thirty years building more than a dozen plants
inside the US. The last quarter's results:
TOYOTA makes 4 billion in profits while GM racked up 9 billion in
losses.

GM folks are still scratching their heads.

IF THIS WEREN'T TRUE, IT MIGHT BE FUNNY.

I know I havent been commenting or posting yesterday much. But, I was frozen solid walking home last night. It took me an hour shower in the hottest water I could get. And then I just couldnt think of anything. I tried to play canasta lost badly and I dont like to lose that badly. Sun is out today and I am so glad but they say snow is coming in again. And I say enough is enough already. This weekend I have decided not to work well not at work anyway. I want to get my house back in order. Bailey isnt coming this weekend or anyway that is the plan as it stands now. But I just need the quiet. We shall see. Cant say no. I want go to the Dickens Christmas thing down town but dont know yet if we will. Might have to make my son go with me. Yes, like that will happen then again he might surprise me. I would love to just stay at home today but cant afford it. I really need to get my flu shot maybe next tuesday when I have another appointment. Anyway will see you all this evening

True Redneck Tube Top!!!!

This was taken in front of the Gardendale, Alabama, Walmart, where the young lady was shopping at the Flea market.

This is hysterical! Look at it closely.

Now I ask you...

Who stands and looks at a pair of men's briefs and says hummmm...I can make me a nice summer top from these!! On the other hand...$6 for a three pack is a good price!!

But what if they weren't bought new? That's redneck recycling at it's best. Don't throw out yer feller's drawers when the skidmarks don't wash out no more. Just cut the crotch out and wear 'em. How very Green! Al Gore would be proud.
