HAPPY EASTER EACH AND EVERY ONE - I HOPE YOU HAVE A SAFE ONE!
ONE LINERS:You never really learn to swear until you learn to drive.I had amnesia once - maybe twice.If you think you're a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else's dog around.
FUNNY VIDEO CLIPS: Ask The Fruitcake Lady! more>> ..Very funny clip, if you can spare the time - it really is worth it!
I take for granted the wonderful nation if which you and I live, there are many in our world who will struggle for life this weekend. Enjoy a blessed Easter
Well for now.. you just enjoy... A chocolate overload comes only once every Easter, ... and every mood swing, and at the end of every bad day... and .. well.. guess you could factor it in as a basic food group for me LOL.
Much much later, ..on perhaps a less heavily sugar laden day, try clicking on the 'more>>' word highlighted in red. It should take you to the Video Clip Archive Room. Then see the Fruitcake Lady video clip there. (Crossing fingers and scrunching eyes). Hope it works next time - Ive checked it again this end, and no probs here, but then again, I haven't in no way near finished having my day's quota of choccies yet... Big smiles.
You know you can stay my place anytime hun...
I'll even give you the good looking sheets... for the spare bed. Lavender pouches on the pillows too. But talk of suitcases, and moving blogs... and well... my arms are crossing right now... (I know I know I can think of at least 10 trails of points here..)... But right now.. my day has been emotional enough! Thank goodness there seems to be a decent supply of chocolate on hand! gobble gobble...(oops think that was a bit of a foil wrapper!)
You're sleeping my place tonight.. .and there'll be no 'ifs and buts'.... about it! We'll worry about looking for the keys in the morning. Ive (still) got some wine (LOL) and a whole pile of DVDs. (Didnt realise I could be so devious... did you?) LOL.
And thanks for your comments and the laughs!!!!!!
(As for the age... I hear ya sister... I hear ya)...Feelin' much the same..LOLOLOL.
(P.S.S... Hey.. I got wine, choccies, DVDs, ice blocks for the ankles, granny blankets.... what more could one want for.. I ask you! LOL)
I am sending you a quick email, but I thought you may get this quicker. Can you please send Kitty all of my love as I can't contact her due to my locked out state i.e. I can't access her blog.
Thanks heaps and lots of love to you too,
Chezza
XXXXX OOOOO
Well Dee thanks for the bed for the night, I had a very good sleep thank you. It appears that I may need this bed for a bit longer as I am still locked out.
I have decided against breaking a window and have called the locksmith, however due to it being a public holiday I don't like my chances of getting back in very soon. Generally it takes 24 hours to get an answer, anyway I have left a message on their answering machine and we will see what happens.
In the meantime I may just shift a few items to my other house.
Now change of subject. I love the fruitcake lady. I have noticed that when people get to a certain age they don't care what they say or who they offend in the process, which can be quite funny at times, embarrassing at others and down right rude in some cases. But I have learnt one thing, you never attempt to have a rational argument with them for two reasons. Firstly they are not about to change their mind after 80 + years and which leads me to the 2nd point you would be wasting your breath. So generally I just say, "I don't think we better get onto that topic", or I may agree if it is a subject that I can just let go and smile. However, sometimes if they won't let it go, I walk away or try and change the subject to avoid WWIII.
Classic example was yesterday. Family gathering. Grandma (90) says to grand daughter, "You teach in a Catholic school don't you?"
Granddaughter replies, "Yes I do."
Grandma replies, "They get a lot of holidays those Catholics don't they!" ( I had a question mark there but realised it wasn't a question but a statement.)
Grand daughter - speachless.
Grand daughter's brother says trying not to laugh too much, "Oh that's too funny, what a joke" as he smirks at his sister and we are all making little side comments and smiling to ourselves :-)
When can it get embarrassing? When you are sitting in the doctor's surgery with 90 year old lady who is a bit deaf and she starts making comments about the people she sees, such as, "Gee she is very fat isn't she, I wonder how she got that fat?" She believes she is whispering - she is NOT!
I love that fruit cake lady - but not if she was my grandma and I had to take her some where public ;-P
Am so glad you had a good sleep, and I hope you know that you can consider my home as your home. Ill be out today doing some running around, but I will also get another set of my blog's - keys, cut for you.
Thanks for the HUGE belly laughs and your glorious comment. I will reply, but may saviour the pleasure over a relaxing meal, plus lap top, when I put my feet up tonight. Will truly be bouncing around with the effects of your smiles you've given me for the day though! Double serves of love to you hun. Catchya round later.
After shifting a few items to my newer home most of the day, I have finally got back into my old slightly crappy, tumbled down shack!
I got in using the IE key instead of FireFox key. If I thought BN was slow with the FF key it is nothing compared to IE for difficulty to open - that IE door needs some oil I think, plus I need magnifying glasses to read the text.
As Dorothy would say, "There is no place like home, there is no place like home." As she prays like hell that she will one day get back to her "Home sweet home!"
Thanks for the nice warm friendly bed last night but I guess it is time I said:
CHEZ: I’ve checked out your new digs… and very plush I must say!
I’ll be sure to be a regular visitor; I quite like the opulence for a change (of BN).
Do I have to wear my Sunday clothes when I visit though *wink wink*.
(… you know I’m only joshing you, don’t you…. This is the *cheeky grin*, and if you missed that, then here’s a nudge/punch to your shoulder… c’mon.. I hardly touched you!)
*Serious now*…It’s ALWAYS a pleasure when you pay a visit. You gave me such laughs today, I think it’s time I thought of you and did the same. So I googled for anything related to your comments (above), using some keywords such as “GRANDMAS, FRIENDLY BEDS”….now there's a weird and wacky train of thought!! LOL Here’s a couple of giggles I found for you:
GETTING WHITE HAIRS
One day, a little girl is sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly notices that her mother has several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast to her brunette hair.
She looks at her mother and inquisitively asks, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?"
Her mother replied, "Well, every time that a little girl does something wrong and makes her mommy cry or makes her unhappy, one of her hairs turns white."
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and said:
"You must have really pissed off Grandma."
THE CHICKEN AND THE EGG
A Chicken and an Egg were lying in bed one night. The chicken smoking a cigarette with a smug grin on its face, the egg looking thoroughly ticked off. The egg looks at the chicken and says, “Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question!”
Well thanks for those two jokes. Given that I am very grey under this purple hair of mine, it must say a lot for the brood that I have been raising. However my first grey hair appeared at the age of 16, so I am not too sure about that one? No I did NOT have a teenage pregnancy, I was still a virgin - there now the whole world knows that little bit of info ;-P
Ummm now I am about to appear extremely dumb (the reason that I haven't helped with the cryptic crossword, even with the answers I still don't get them!), anyway I am not too sure about the 2nd joke? So who did come first the chicken or the egg? Can you please explain the joke cause I really don't get it - please I am being serious :-(
Thank you for the hospitality and the warm welcome over at your new digs Chez!!! HUGE SINCERE SMILES AND GREETING HUGS: to the NEEEWWWW CHEZZA (and her mini ‘extreme’ makeover – already for her unveiling over at..) http://chezzag.wordpress.com/
I have to admit, I really like your new house Chez! I think you will enjoy it there.
I’ve tried to register and create a blog at wordpress.com, but by the time I get the hang of something, it seems to decide right there and then to have its own server issues!!!
I may look at this avenue as a possible storage-room for my decrease in available file space issues that I have here (personally) on BN, but for the moment I continue with BN until it acts up, drive by wordpress.com until that acts up, and also – far too often of late, my own internet connection just seems to drop out constantly! Out of say, six avenues of technology, I only seem to be having luck with two at any given time.
Yes BN has been a real nightmare – Im starting to wonder though if the answer lies in that the storm prefers to follow me – I mean why else would then wordpress.com decide to have ‘issues’ too! LOL. No pessimism in this statement – Hey – I happen to LOVE storms. That’s when I really come ALIVE! I love to go dancing barefoot in the rain-puddles, and have done so literally, many-a-time! I feel so well, and sooo healthy just after a storm has broken – maybe I was created from left-over bits and pieces similar to that of Mary Shelley’s brainchild! Perhaps we’ve discovered a new trick, does anyone have some copper-wire handy? Maybe me and my location needs ‘grounding’.. and it would put to rest all the techno-problems. LOL
For now, my home is here, where I read lovely comments such as yours; tinker around, tidy up and enjoy the calming effect of a crossword; a laugh or two and the loving and friendly accompanying personalities.
I’m sorry that I’ve only managed fly-by visits to your new address, and am feeling a little uneasy that I hadn’t bought you a housewarming gift when I did. A potted plant simply won’t do. So as a little ‘surprise’ (hope its not a shock-horror), I’ve decided to send you this note through my most reliable avenue of technology (touch wood!!!) – my gmail account – which also shows my true identity!
All my love to you and yours, Chez, and Happy Housewarming!
It is a lovely house warming gift, I will treasure it as it should be treasured - you can be sure of that.
Your quick visits have helped make my newer home a lot more friendly, so thank you so much. But whatever BN holds for me, I am sure that I will still visit my old digs, after all this is where I found my true roots again and made a lot of good friends :-)
You will be hearing from me.
Now you haven't solved my chicken and the egg dilemma??????
Also I hope you get this comment, as your previous email has got me a bit worried, that commments are now disappearing :-(
Okay here we go, sending away to somewhere and only God knows where!
Well I found that long comment that I was telling you about.. that I left on someone's blog. But I was worried about it, as I was worried about this blogger, and was worried that they didn't receive my comment, so the person wouldn't know I cared. Well anyhoo.... I found it. Maybe I just lost 'the plot'. No it wasnt that comment (the comment about 'losing the plot') but another one, that I well.. temporarily.. lost. But I DID lose the comment that I posted on YOUR blog. Well I know I posted it, and its not there now... sooo...... oh.. (long pause).....Bugger!
As for the chicken and egg dilemma, I think I may need to explain that via an email LOL.
I think that's a wrap for me for tonight!
It now appears I have to check Vox out. By the end of this I will have 6 different blogsite, "I'm spinning around, move out of my way, cause I feel like I'm gonna throw up!"
Have a great weekend,
Chezza 40 + 1 + 17 (I think? - It starting to get confusing now - can I keep it up - Yes I can!)
