I may have already posted these for ya. If I did, forgive me and enjoy them again anyway! Remember, I'm getting old and feeble minded!
Coffee out on the patio again this morning. Cool, but there will be sunshine!
Love these...would also love to sit on your patio 14° with wind chill -1°····winter isn't giving up easily....I think some fresh fruit salad on a sunny patio sounds good today. I'll share :))
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chuckle! I'll bring some whipped cream for all that delicious fruit, Mamahen! Very cold and very windy here, too. :o(
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy reading those sayings. 6 degrees outside here this morning. Sitting on your sunny patio sounds fine to me. Thanks for the fresh fruit salad Mamahen.
ReplyDeleteCaptain Kirk could defeat the logical alien invader with those, it would simply self destruct halfway through the list. They "don't compute".
ReplyDeleteI have seen some of these before but not all. They still are pretty good and I have asked those questions too. LOL
ReplyDeleteNice morning here too, bet that means the winds a comin this afternoon rats. So going to enjoy the morning for sure.
Hey Mamahen...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry but that's just way too cold for me! However, the fruit salad sure sounds good!
Thanks for coming by today!
Hey Phyllis...
You ladies always make me hungry talking about all this good stuff to eat!
Thanks for coming by to share some sunshine!
Hey Linda M...
I am starting to think that Winter is going to stick around your place for a while!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Hey Sunnybrook...
Some of them certainly don't compute at all!
Thanks for the visit today!
Hey Jo...
Yesterday was really windy here, but so far today, it's very pleasant!
Thanks, sweetie, for coming over this morning!
Thanks for the smile. I can always use a good smile and some of these made me laugh out loud.
