What difference does it make?

All you are hearing on the news or I guess I should say Entertainment shows is that everyone is wondering who is the father of Michael Jackson’s kids?  Well I’ll tell you who that is.  It’s Michael.  It doesn’t matter at all who is the biological father, that’s just DNA.  Michael was those children’s father from the time they were babies until he died and therefor, he’s their father.

There are some things that the media just needs to keep their noses out of and children’s lives and pain are one of the most important things they need to leave alone.  These beautiful children have lost their father and all anyone wants to do is talk about who really created these children.  God created them and gave them as a gift to Michael and he treated them as just that, a wonderful gift!!

Well where’s the summer heat?

This has been the coolest summer that I can ever remember.  By now it’s usually hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk but this year we have had very few really hot days.  I’m not complaining now so don’t think that but it just surprises me.  Usually by this time of year, the temperature stays pretty much above 90 and a lot of temperatures above 95 but we have had some really nice days.

Hey, what happened to all of that global warming they were talking about.  Maybe now we’re on the verge of a new Ice Age!!!  It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if they came up with that now.

Local kids need new glasses

There are several children around me in need of eyeglasses before school starts back.  I found $8 Rx eyeglasses and couldn’t believe my eyes.  It’s true because I saw Zenni Optical on TV!!! For that price, I can get several children new eyeglasses for school.   We have to help those in need so I say ‘High Five to Zenni Optical’ for making it possible.

Yeeeehaaaa!

Well one of my waitresses just told me the funniest joke and I wanted to share it with you.  I didn’t realize what the end was going to be until she told me and I almost fell off of my bar stool laughing.  I hope it at least brings a smile to your face too.  Smiles are good for your soul you know!

A woman from New York was driving through a remote part of Arizona when her car broke down. An American Indian on horseback came along and offered her a ride to a nearby town.

She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off. The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the Indian would let out ‘Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a’ so loud that it echoed from the surrounding hills..

When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service station, yelled one final ‘Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!’ and rode off.

‘What did you do to get that Indian so excited?’ asked the service-station attendant. ‘Nothing,’ the woman answered. ‘I merely sat behind him on the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto the saddle horn so I wouldn’t fall off.’

‘Lady,’ the attendant said, ‘Indians don’t use saddles’

Nothing like a good bed to help you sleep better

I have a lot of trouble sleeping at night sometimes so I decided to totally redo my bedroom.  First I decided to paint the walls a soothing blue color since I heard that you sleep better in a blue bedroom or at least with a blue blanket.  Then I decided I needed a whole new bed. Well I go to my trusty computer and start searching for beds.  Man did I come up with a long list of sites for beds but the one that really caught my eye was a web site in the UK.

My bedroom is rather large but storage space has always been a problem since I tend to be a bit of a pack rat.  I have old quilts from as far back as my great-grandmothers hand sewn quilts and they are very important to me.  Well what I found was called a ‘Tuscany Ottoman Bed Frame’.  It’s a leather bed but the best part of it is the whole bed lifts up to reveal storage under the mattress.  I don’t fully understand converting the UK’s money into our money and I’m not sure if they will even ship it to the States but I sure hope so.  I absolutely love that bed.  Well I gotta get back to looking and seeing if they will ship here.

Have you heard about this?

This is just about the funniest thing I have ever heard or read.  It’s a good lesson in “Think before you speak” and that’s a lesson we all have to keep learning unfortunately!!

This one had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a very embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely think before she speaks. What happens when you predict snow, but don’t get any? We had a female news anchor who,the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn’t, turned to the weatherman and asked:

So Bob, where’s that 8 inches you promised me last night?

Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too, they were laughing so hard!

Mosquito problem?

Anywhere there are people, there will be mosquitoes!  I hate those little blood sucking varmints.  Boy have I found the answer to stopping them too.  It’s called a Mosquito Magnet and it attracts and kill mosquitoes.  All you have to do is go to mosquitomagnet.com and learn more about the product.

It uses a product called lurex and other things to bring the mosquitoes into the trap so it can kill them.  From the information I read on their web site, this is the way to go if you have a mosquito problem and I don’t know many people that don’t.   Oh and they have great support for you once you purchase one of their products so there’s no fear of poor customer service with them and that can be hard to find in this day in time.
