A JUNK COLLECTOR GUY WILL BE COMING SOON TO PICK UP A LOT OF STUFF

 IT WAS A QUIET DRIVE THROUGH THE PICTURESQUE RURAL COUNTRYSIDE THIS MORNING

I slipped out the door earlier than usual this morning, fearing the day was going to get hot and humid. It actually didn't turn out too bad, but I'm glad I took advantage of the cooler morning air.  I went straightaway to Stirling's Line, where Pheebs and I often went, and got myself out for a walk up the gravelly country road and back.  From there, I slowly dusted up few back roads before returning home.  While Lorraine worked away at cleaning some of the house siding this afternoon, I busied myself in the carport, pulling a lot of dusty stuff down from the rafters that had been up there for years.  Ended myself up with quite a pile of stuff I'd say, but I have the carport, including the upper rafters, about 80% done now, and that's a heck of a lot better than 4 months ago when I had nothing done.  Some stuff is for the garbage pile, some for St. Vincent de Paul in Goderich, and some of it for a metal and junk collector guy who will be coming soon to pick up a lot of stuff.

Lorraine headed home to Stratford today, so I'll be back to my peanut butter sandwiches again.  But, that's okay, I like my peanut butter sammiches.  I put a little touch of honey on them too.  Well, when Woodsy isn't looking of course.

 DO YOU SEE THREE HORSES STANDING HERE??

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Getting Old::

- Your house plants are alive, and you can’t smoke any of them.
- You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
- 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
- You hear your favourite song in an elevator.
- You watch the Weather Channel.
- Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
- You’re the one calling the police because those kids next door won’t turn down the stereo.
- You don’t know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
- Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
- You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald’s leftovers.
- Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
- 17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.
- Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.
- You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
- "I just can’t drink the way I use to" replaces "I’m never going to drink that much again."
- 90% of the time you spend on a computer is for real work.
- You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn’t apply to you & can’t find one to save your sorry old butt.

A busload of tourists arrives at Runnymede, just west of central London.  They gather around the guide who says: “This is the spot where the barons forced King John to sign the Magna Carta."  A guy at the front of the crowd asks: "When did that happen?”
“1215,” answers the guide.  The man looks at his watch and says: “Damn! Missed it by a half hour.”
