GETTING THINGS DONE WHILE I AM STILL ABLE TO GET THINGS DONE

SUNDAY NIGHT'S RURAL SUNSET
Another bright sunny day with temps at 48F when I woke up this morning before 7 a.m.  Although chilly, that temperature would be considered a very welcome heatwave in the month of March.  Dressed warm, I headed out for my country road walk under sunny skies but didn't follow that up with a country road drive.  Instead, I headed home and assembled my gardening tools.  I had half a dozen little projects in mind and with the cooler air at hand and summer's heat and humidity waning, I wanted to get some more things done.  In other words, get things done while I am still able to get things done.

 WITH MY CELL PHONE I GIVE MYSELF A  BIG WAVE IN THE MORNING SUNSHINE
 THESE TWO CONCRETE SLABS HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE 2007 WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR FIRST MOTORHOME AND HAVE SERVED AS A STEP OUT FOR ALL OUR RV'S OVER THE YEARS....TODAY I DECIDED IT WAS FINALLY TIME TO REMOVE THEM
 AND NO, I DIDN'T BURY ANYONE HERE BUT DID DUMP A COUPLE BAGS OF TOPSOIL IN AND HAVE PLANTED IT WITH GRASS SEED
FLOWER BEDS ARE OVERDO FOR A CHANGE SO I'VE STARTED HERE
 HEY, IT ONLY TOOK TWO YEARS FOR ME TO FINALLY BURY THIS ELECTRICAL CORD BETWEEN OUR FRONT PORCH AND THE FROG POND
 YUP, THERE'S A FROG IN THIS PHOTO SOMEWHERE
 THE FROGS IN OUR FROG POND HAVE TAKEN ON A DARK COLOR AND ARE HARD TO  SEE
 NO PROBLEM SPOTTING THE CHIPMUNKS IN OUR YARD THOUGH
 SUNDAY NIGHT'S SUNSET CONTINUED

GROANER'S CORNER:(( Two young men from up in Minnesota were looking at a Sears Catalogue and admiring the models. Ole says to the Sven, "Have you seen the beautiful girls in this catalog?" Sven replies, "Yes, they are very beautiful. And look at the price!" Ole says, with wide eyes, "Wow, they aren't very expensive. At this price, I'm buying one." Sven smiles and pats him on the back, "Good idea! Order one and if she's as beautiful as she is in the catalog, I will get one too." Three weeks later, Sven asks his friend Ole, "Did you ever receive the girl you ordered from the Sears catalog?" Ole replies, "No, but it shouldn't be long now. I got her clothes yesterday!"

A guy says to the bartender, "A glass of your finest Less, please." "Less? Never heard of it."
"C'mon, sure you have." "No, really, we don't stock it. What is it? Some kind of foreign beer?"
"I'm not sure. It was my doctor who mentioned it. He said I should drink Less."

Two old friends met by chance on the street.
After chatting for some time one said to the other, "I'm terribly sorry, but I've forgotten your name. You'll need to tell me".
The other stared at him thoughtfully for a long time, then replied, "How soon do you need to know?"

IT IS THE ONLY TELEVISION SHOW I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING.

  A LAZY SUNDAY MORNING IN FARM COUNTRY
Short on words again today, folks, but the weather is perfect.  A walk this morning of course, followed by a slow country road drive. This afternoon, Woodsy and I both spent time outside cleaning up flower beds, etc.  She headed back to Stratford later and will probably be back on Wednesday. I'll be headed out for my evening walk shortly, but will hustle right back because my favorite TV show has its 2-hour season premiere tonight.  I have been watching 'The Secret Of Skinwalker Ranch' for the last four or five years now, and it is the only television show I always look forward to watching.

 IT WAS ANOTHER BIG GLOUD DAY
 AREA BEAN FIELDS HAVE TRANSITIONED FROM GREEN TO YELLOW
 CORN CROPS ARE RIPENING

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man came home from an exhausting day at work, plopped down on the couch in front of the television, and told his wife: "Get me a beer before it starts!" The wife sighed and got him a beer. Ten minutes later, he said: "Get me another beer before it starts!" She looked cross, but fetched another beer and slammed it down next to him. He finished that beer and a few minutes later said: "Quick, get me another beer, it's going to start any minute!" The wife was furious. "Is that all you're going to do tonight! Drink beer and sit in front of that TV! You're nothing but a lazy, drunken, fat slob and furthermore..."The man sighed and said: "It's started."

- You're doing just fine without an Irish accent. If it ain't brogue don't fix it.

- An Irishman had just walked into a bar when he tripped over and fell. He got up and said, "Guess I can call it a day."

- An Aussie said, “Take away your snow capped mountains, culture, and good food, and what would New Zealand be?” The kiwi answered, “Australia”.

A man is walking from the lake carrying two fish in a bucket. He is approached by the game warden who asks him for his fishing license. The fisherman says to the warden, "I did not catch these fish, they are my pets. Every day I come down to the water and whistle and these fish jump out and I take them around to see the sights only to return them at the end of the day."
The warden, not believing him, reminds him that it is illegal to fish without a license. The fisherman turns to the warden and says, "If you don?t believe me then watch," as he throws the fish back into the water.
The warden says, "Now whistle to your fish and show me how they jump out the water." The fisherman turns to the warden and says, "What fish?"
