OH GOODY GOODY GUMDROPS

 IN OUR SUNROOM

Oh goody goody gumdrops, the snow has all melted:)) For now that is:((  Morning sunshine brightened the day, and I was up earlier than usual and dressed.  Not because of the sunshine, but because we had an Eastlink (internet/TV) technician arriving somewhere between 8:30 and noon.  In fact, two work vans showed up at 9 a.m.  Turns out one of them was a supervisor who travels around and monitors employees.  A nice couple of fellas who ended up being here for over an hour.  They replaced all the internet and TV connectors before installing new hardware for a newer and more cost-effective program lineup package that I requested.  Of course, they ran into some technical glitches, but handled them with ease.  I'm always amazed at how fast and efficient these younger people are on their cellphones and stuff.  Me, well I'm still trying to make it through a thick manual of instructions on how to change a light bulb.

 TWO VANS SHOWED UP

 THIS IS A SEPARATE COMPANY THAT WORKS ALONGSIDE EASTLINK DOING INSTALLATIONS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Aside from a drive to Clinton and back this afternoon for Woodsy and I, there really isn't much else to write about.  I didn't have many photos for the post, so I slipped out into the front yard late this afternoon and snapped a few.

 HEADING INTO CLINTON THIS AFTERNOON UNDER A BIG PICTURESQUE SKY

WALKING AROUND THE FRONT YARD LOOKING FOR A FEW PICS

 THIS PERIWINKLE WILL REMAIN GREEN ALL WINTER UNDER THE SNOW

 A FEW PLANTS UNDER THE TALL PINE TREES WERE SPARED FROM THE HEAVY FROST A FEW NIGHTS AGO

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Some coffee humor::

- Don’t ever let anyone tell you fairy tales aren’t real. I wake up every morning to drink a potion made from magic beans that brings me back to life.

Y- ou’re brew-ti-ful.

- A woman walks into a coffee shop carrying a big chunk of asphalt under her arm. At the counter she says, “I’ll take a large latte for myself, please, and one for the road.”

- There are two types of people in this world: People who love Starbucks and liars.

If you replace your morning coffee with green tea….You can lose up to 87% of what little joy you feel in the morning.

She drank so much coffee at work, she considered it part of her daily grind.

A yawn is just a silent scream for coffee.

Coffee and I are the perfect blend.

Procaffeinating  – the tendency to not start anything until you’ve had your coffee.

I like my men like I like my coffee…Tall, dark and rich.

A teacher says, “Okay, class. Today, we're going to be talking about the tenses. If I say ‘I'm beautiful,' which tense is it?”  Little Johnny raises his hand and says, “Obviously past tense, Miss.”
