I've just seen some woman walking a dog in her pyjamas......

He looked fcking ridiculous!

I love Sky TV
I've just watched "Spouses Going To Bed Angry": Back-to-back episodes.

I took my wife on one of those fairground rides where you go UP and DOWN, ROUND and ROUND, UP and DOWN, ROUND and ROUND."
"There you are, " I said. "That's what it feels like having an argument with you."

"We have a new member from Prague at the chess club. Guess what I call him?"

"Your Czech mate?"

3 surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on. the first said Electricians are the best as everything inside is colour coded. the second surgeon said that Librarians are better as everything is in alphabetical order inside. The third surgeon said they were both wrong. She said Donald Trump is the easiest patient because he has no brains, no balls, no heart, no guts, no spine and his head and arse are interchangeable

Why do toddlers, who have a hundred toys, chose to play with something that is clearly not a toy but an electrical socket or a bottle of bleach.

I signed up for some aerobics classes and was told to wear loose fitting clothing! If I had any loose fitting clothing..I wouldn't have signed up in the first place!!

The Duke of Edinburgh has apologised to the woman he injured during his unprosecuted dangerous driving incident.
Although she claimed to be happy with the apology she was heard to mutter "Fck that, Phil" as she googled No-Win-No-Fee on her iPhone.

Re: sunday the 27th

MAE ALL....

Mick..."that bottle place must be a fair distance if you have got to get a chinook!" that made me laugh out loud, best way to start the day. I guess the weather sync didn't update...was woken up around 3am with a downpour which turned to hail and is now snowing. Good thing I don't have to go anywhere today. Sounds like a good day to play with the trains, good luck with the electricity project.

Pauly...morning and I hope you have a great day as well.

Off to get my cuppa and read Mick's jokes. Will check in later with everyone.....:smile:PPQP

Re: sunday the 27th

Re: sunday the 27th

Happy Sunday ABeroooos!

slow farting-around day here in garlic-land. Made some yummy BBQ and watching Dr Who among things.
Tomorrow will be haircut, maybe couple clothes to buy and pre-employment drug screen. Catch that?
yepper! I have been officially offered the job and begin training on Wed! hot diggety ding dong dog!
I'ts the security sales/installation position. Local travel only and great bennies. bout freaking time eh?

Pauly, so far the better indy coffee joints have been:

Makers and finders (great food, bit spendy)
The Madhouse (open 24hrs and good food. vegan options too)
The coffee pub (good food)
PublicUS (very busy but great food and spendy)
Pour Coffee (not busy but no food)
Illuma Latte (haven't been to this one yet but i love the name)

and there's a scifi themed lounge in the Soho called the Millenium Fandam Lounge. Pretty sure
they serve booze there so haven't been but sposed to be neato with a lot of cosplay and events.

PPQ, i can relate that being in computer tech would be nutso with all the advances so very quickly.

Pie, in the quiet zone isn't so bad dear

Mick, sorry to hear the weather is cranky but no need to make yerself suffer that's for sure.

shouts to Tree, SK, Sam ?

tonight will make my 6th RR meet and 5th gym session of the week. won't likely have the time or energy when new
job start so figured I might as well take advantage of the time as it is.

no pics yet! oh my. ok just back... camera bag inserted into truck. if anything dares to look interesting I'll be snapping it.

been in such a deeply introspective state lately which is great important work but it's quite a trip down the rabbit hole sometimes
so having some space-out time has been great. Well, time to pack gym bag and get ready to work on body, then mind some more.

ps.. hunting for rentals online is pretty fun. I'll never make up my mind. egad.

be well loves!

Re: sunday the 27th

Sunday evening greetings Abbers!

Conscientious projector, Ha ha, love that one Mick
Sometimes it's good to stay home & play with your toys - especially in this changeable weather. I hope your lights in the trains work out for you.
Bonnie is officially off the sick list now, nice! My dog managed to go out & roll in 'something extremely stinky' last night. Today I plunked her in the bathtub, scrubbed up her collar where there was visible evidence of said stinky substance. I washed all of her bedding & blankets. That took up the majority of my day, lucky me, LOL

Hi there Pauly, PQ & Pie!

Det, CONGRATS on the new job buddy :yay:
It is about time & I think you are ready to move on in your new & improved life. Awesome!!!!

Hello to SK & Cyn!

We ran out for a quick dinner at a local place. The soup of the day was Herr's cheese curl soup, LOL. I can't eat anything like that but YB said it was good & definitely not low fat.
I don't know if anyone is familiar with Herr's snack foods but they are made right across the road from the eatery. Herr's Products
They make everything & anything you could want in the junk food department, haha!

Have a nice night everyone!
Lav

...I'll never forget that first day at school when the teacher asked did we know any french.

Whenever she calls him in his absence, his wife takes the phone and plugs it to the charger.

A policeman brought four boys before a judge.

"They were causing an awful lot of commotion at the zoo, your Honor", he said.

"Boys", said the judge sternly, "I never like to hear reports of juvenile delinquency.

Now I want each of you to tell me your name and what you were doing wrong".

"My name is George", said the first boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen".

"My name is Pete", said the second boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen".

"My name is Mike", said the third boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen".

"My name is Peanuts", said the fourth boy.

Las Vegas has many churches, and people frequently drop casino chips into the collection plates.

The various churches cannot easily turn them into dollars, so a service was started by a group of Franciscan monks to pick up the chips weekly and go around to the various casinos and redeem the chips for dollars. They support themselves this way and provide a valuable service.

They are called chipmonks.

Frank was excited about his new rifle and decided to try bear hunting. He travels up to Alaska, spots a small brown bear and shoots it. Right afterwards, there was a tap on his shoulder and he turned around to see a big black bear.

The black bear said, "That was a very bad mistake. That was my cousin and I'm going to give you two choices. Either I maul you to death or we have sex." After considering briefly, Frank decided to accept the latter alternative.

So the black bear has his way with Frank. Even though he felt sore for two weeks, Frank soon recovered and vowed revenge. He headed out on another trip back to Alaska where he found the black bear and shot it dead. Right afterwards, there was another tap on his shoulder. This time a huge grizzly bear stood right next to him.

The grizzly said, "That was a big mistake, Frank. That was my cousin and you've got two choices. Either I maul you to death or we have rough sex."

Again, Frank thought it was better to cooperate with the grizzly bear than be mauled to death.. So the grizzly has his way with Frank.

Although he survived, it took several months before Frank fully recovered. Now Frank is completely outraged, so he headed back to Alaska and managed to track down the grizzly bear and shoot it. He felt sweet revenge, but then moments later, there was a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to find a giant polar bear standing there. The polar bear looked at him and said, "Admit it Frank, you don't come here for the hunting do you?

One day these two fine southern ladies were sittin' on the front porch having some iced tea. One of the women sticks out her hand for the other woman to see, and in her long southern drawl says "Look at this ring my husband gave me. Isn't it nice?"

To which the other woman replies, "Oh that's nice, that's real nice."

The first woman then says , "And just last month he took me on one of them Caribbean cruises."

The second woman again replies, "Oh that's nice, that's real nice."

"Well sweetheart doesn't your husband ever buy you nice things or send you nice places?"

"Oh", the second woman responds, "When we first got married he did send me to etiquette school."

"Why'd he do that?" the first woman asks.

To which the second fine southern woman replies, "Well you see, before, when someone told me about the jewellery their husband gave them, or the trips he sent her on, I would have just said I don't give a fck, but now I say that's nice, that's real nice."

[treegirl]

Re: sunday the 27th

Quick hello to all -

CONGRATS DET!!! You are definitely creating a new life, how great.

To everyone else, I wish a happy and safe day. I must run, big work day today, and I spent all day with hubs yesterday, so of course I am behind.

Will try to check in later. Cheers -

[Determinator]

Re: sunday the 27th

ARF! Happy Tue ABeroooos!

Pauly, say the word and we'll hit a new coffee shop together sometime... my treat.

things are finally falling into place pretty well here all over. Interesting how that after some very concerted
effort with my mindfulness practice I don't feel like I'm fighting things anymore. I'm learning to transcend fighting
altogether, and that kind of 'pushing sh#t uphill' effort/fatigue cycle I've been putting myself through for so many decades.

have Chinese porkchops in the oven currently (ok they're not actually from China I'm pretty sure)

so glad to see everyone don't pretty well on the thread here, that makes my day so keep up the good stuff.

did my drug test for work today and more paperwork and got a couple items of clothing. thankfully dress code is
biz casual which is nice.

packing up for gym/RR meeting once again and I spose i better check those chops...

be well loves

Re: sunday the 27th

MAE ALL...

Mick...yup, we've got the sunshine which makes all the difference when the weather is cold. Had to go for a consult for an upcoming colonoscopy. My doc had moved way down south so was nervous about trying to find the place. Saw a sign that said Freeway Ends so was glad to see my destination just up ahead. The Trump / Hillary Clinton joke made me laugh out loud. The accountant is at it again driving everyone crazy to the point where the childcare director said I'm not listening to anything you say anymore. I'll only listen to "PQ" lol.

Pauly...I really wan't expecting the polar bears comment. LOL Glad you're blocking the work situation out of your mind, just tell yourself "Not my circus, not my monkey!"

Sam...sending you motivation, don't want to mess up on the 30th.

TG...you may be behind work wise but you're way ahead relationship wise.

Det...that concerted effort was well worth it. You sound so much more at peace with yourself.

Lav...I'm sure you'll pop up shortly.

It's stir fried veggies and rice for dinner tonight so must get at it. Have a peaceful night everyone....:smile:PPQP

Re: sunday the 27th

Good evening Abbers,

Running a bit behind today but that's OK. We took a few hours to go walk through the orchid display at Longwood Gardens today. Such beautiful flowers, honestly. YB has some orchids in the greenhouse, now he wants a bigger greenhouse, haha!
Btw - that cheese soup picture.....YB said it was delicious, I saw a lot of people eating it with smiles on their faces, LOL. WAY too much dairy in that bowl for me!

Mick, your trains are reminding me of the setup our old neighbor had in his basement. It's sitting there unused now, don't know what's going to happen to it, shame. You have a real talent for revitalizing old stuff, making it like new


Sam, hope you get your birthday shopping done before this next storm blows in tomorrow. Good luck!!!

Cyn, more snow on the way, ugh! Get ready!

Pauly, YB knows better than to annoy me with gas issues, haha!! I've been pointing him to the door for nearly 46 years now. Go outside & do that, yuck!!

Det, never heard of Chinese pork chops.
I think most of us have some history of fighting ourselves over stupid shit that we can't change or control. The only smart thing to do was give up, yep, just give up. That's what I did so I could stop beating myself up
Glad things are moving in the right direction for you.

PQ, yep, I am here

Hello to SK & Pie.
Hope we all have a nice night!

Lav
