Female companion
A man was lying on a blanket at the beach
He had no arms or legs.
Three women were walking past and felt sorry for
the poor man.
The first woman said "Have you ever had a hug"
The man said "No", so she gave him a hug and walked on.
The second woman said "Have you ever had a kiss".
The man said "No", so she gave him a kiss and walked on.
The third woman walked over to him, knelt down and whispered in his
ear,
"Have you ever been F****d?
The fellow looked up in amazement and said "No"
The woman smiled and said "You will be when the tide comes in."
Hehehehehehehehehehehe
A woman went into a bar in Newfoundland and saw a Mountie with his
Feet
propped up on a table. He had the biggest boots she'd ever seen. She
asked him if was true what they say about men with big feet. The
Mountie grinned and said, "Sure is, little lady. Why don't you Come
over to the barracks and let me prove it to you?"
The woman wanted to find out for herself, so she spent the night with
Him.
The next morning she handed him a $100 bill.
Blushing, he said, "Well, thanks, ma'am. I'm real flattered. Nobody
Ever
paid me for my services before."
"Don't be flattered...take the money and buy yourself boots that fit"
Trick or Treat
TRICK R' TREAT
An old couple who hadn't celebrated Halloween
in a long time decided to Dress up and go out.
The old woman went into her bedroom, stripped naked
and tied a lemon Between her legs.
When she came out, the old man
cried,
"You can't go out like That!"
She said, "I can go anyway I like and so can you."
Whereupon he retired to the bedroom and came
out stark raving naked with a
Potato tied to his tallywhacker.
The old woman says, you're going out like
that?"
and he replies,
"Yep, if you can go as a Sour-puss, I can go as a dick-tator."
If he reminds me just one more time
that he is going to be 15 in exactly a weeks time I will scream!

Good Tuesday Morning
Tuesday already.
So far I have got up, showered, prepared tonights tea and got that going in the slow cooker (sausage casserole) made two lots of sandwiches and one snack bowl (which is for youngest child as he has choir practice after school), popped to Tesco to get some drinks to go in packed lunches (why did I forget to get some when I went shopping), had breakfast now quickly catching up before I dash out of the door.
I am exhausted already!
Very windy out though the sun is trying to shine. Autumnal feel to the air outside this morning. Wide awake at 4am again which is not good, I even went to bed at 11pm last night in the hope it would help, but no it didn't. Oh well eventually body will realise it can have an extra hour, it hasn't adjusted yet lol!
Have a good day everyone.

Think before you speak
Here are six reasons why you should think before you speak - the last
one is great! Have you ever spoken and wished that you could
immediately take the words
back... or that you could crawl into a
hole?
Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did....
FIRST TESTIMONY:
I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow and
asked loudly, "How much do you charge for a
shampoo and a blow job?"
I turned around and walked back out and never went back.
My husband didn't say a word... he knew better.
SECOND TESTIMONY:
I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was
unhappy with the women's type I had been using. After browsing for
several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen
who works at the store.
He asked if he could help me.
Without thinking, I looked at him and said, "I think I like playing with
men's balls"
THIRD TESTIMONY:
My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a
variety of candy and nuts.
As we were looking at the display case,
the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help. I replied, "No,
I'm just looking at your nuts." My sister
started to laugh hysterically.
The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away. To this day, my
sister has never let me forget.
FOURTH TESTIMONY:
While in line at the bank one afternoon,
my toddler decided to release some pent-up energy and ran amok. I was
finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust
and annoyance from other patrons.
I told her that if she did not start behaving
"right now" she would be punished.
To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as
threatening, "If you don't let me go right now, I
will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee last night!"
The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange.
Even the tellers stopped what they were doing.
I mustered up the last of my dignity and
walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow. The last thing I heard
when the door closed behind me, were
screams of laughter.
FIFTH TESTIMONY:
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times? My
three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was
on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch,
in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While
enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I
checked my seven-month-old daughter, she was clean. The realized that
Danny had not asked to go potty in a
while. I asked him if he needed to go, and he said "No". I kept
thinking
"Oh Lord, that child has had an accident,
and I don't have any clothes with me."
Then I said, "Danny, are you SURE you didn't have an accident?" "No," he
replied.
I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because the smell was
getting worse.
Soooooo, I asked one more time, "Danny did you have an accident ? This
time he jumped up, yanked down his
pants, bent over, spread his cheeks and yelled "SEE MOM, IT'S JUST
FARTS!!"
While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he
calmly pulled up his pants and sat down. An
old couple made me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh they'd
ever
had!
LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:
This 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 that, 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!
Now, didn't that feel good?
Monday morning, dreams, and accidents
Weekend, came out of SIL house on Saturday evening and fell down a step just outside her door, jarring my back. I didn't see the step as it was dark and she hadn't put the light on! (oh and I was sober)
Total agony all weekend, still no better this morning, debating do I go into work or not?
Don't really want to go back at all. It is going to be an interesting day either way.
Strange dreams last night. Me and an old school friend ( who I haven't seen since I left school) travel by car to see another friend of mine as she has to give him something for his wife (weird thing is she in reality doesn't know my other friend). So walk from the car to a huge field (looks more like a football pitch) where friend is waiting for groundworkers to turn up to cut the grass. He has no shirt on, just pair of torn jeans. We talk he is obviously in a bad mood as we argue, she gives him the present for his wife. He says he is going home now and starts walking off.
We start to walk away then see him at a bus stop talking to another woman he is now dressed in a suit. Offer him a lift home and this woman who he is talking to. We walk towards the car, but cannot find it as we are not going the same route as we did before. After endless searching we eventually come to a street La'Morna Avenue and we start to walk down it. At the end there are some stairs, some going up which are quite wide and made of concrete, yet we choose to go down some rusty iron steps that lead down into a big hole (the type you always see in films as they enter sewers) yet it wasn't a sewer, it was a car park. So we go down the steps, as we step on them they start to come away from the wall ..................
At which point I wake up![]()
Oh well better get a move on and head out of the door to see what is in store for me today!
Have a good one!

Friday Morning
Dark, cold.........
Yes as I type this it is dark outside. I got up nice and early and made hubby a cup of tea, not because I wanted to but because it was necessary to check how much he had in his account so I can transfer some money over into the Household account later!
I have to go into town this morning. Car tax is due, bills need to be paid, joy to the world and all that! I hate the end of the month, so much money comes out of the account in one feel swoop in direct debits before we even start!
Annoyed to find that eldest child didn't wash up last night either and has left coursework to the last minute again. Kitchen full of pots and pans and coursework all over the table - at least he got to bed at a reasonable time though which is better, only because I made him go!
Oh well better get a move on or town will be packed!!

Wednesday evening reflection
It has been a successful day.
I have cleared 4 baskets of ironing and made a shepherd's pie for tea which was delicious. However beginning to get worried, Nig hasn't returned from work yet or answered my texts, not like him to let me know what is happening! Hopefully he has just been caught in traffic or is doing a private job!
Kids are busy revising their christmas lists (again), too much time on their hands.
Not done any exercise today which is not good. Raining hard outside, not really walking weather, and can't get to my stepper as Nig has planted a big box of heavy rubbish in it and I can't move it!!![]()
Well off to do some stitching now.
My nerdiness
Not so nerdy but apparently not cool either!
Like I didn't already know that
Did I have to get up!
It is raining absolutely bucketing down!
The only reason I did manage to emerge from my warm comfortable bed was because my mother phoned.
Hubby moaning this morning that it was cold. He says the bathroom is an icebox! Asked him if that was a hint for me to put the heating on, he says "Thought it was on!" Then " why isn't it"
To be honest because apart from the freezing bathroom and hallway, it isn't that cold in the house. The hallway and bathroom are always cold they are on the end of the house next to open fields and woods so yes it will feel cold. Hopefully once we get the cavity wall insulation installed then it won't feel so cold! I am holding off putting the heating on for the moment mainly because once it does go on I always come down with a cold. i layer up and am encouraging the kids to do so as well, though Nig is a pain, he will insist upon wearing t shirts then complaining about how cold he is
/.
Today I will try and do some ironing, it is piling up now and really needs to be done. That is my job for today then back to the sewing!

I just did!! I Think----
This is brill!!
To My Dear Wife:
You will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 54 years old, can no longer satisfy. I am very happy with you and I value you as a good wife. Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that you will not wrongly interpret the fact that I will be spending the evening with my 18 year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn Hotel. Please don't be upset - I shall be home before midnight."
When the man came home late that night, he found the following letter on the dining room table:
"My Dear Husband,
I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about my being 54 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 54 years old. As you know, I am a math teacher at our local college. I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant tennis coach. He is young, virile, and like your secretary, is 18 years old.
As a successful businessman who has an excellent knowledge of math, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one small difference: 18 goes into 54 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18.
Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow."
Opinions
Subville posted this and it looks interesting.....
When you are in a monogamous relationship, what constitutes cheating?
Confiding in a Friend of the Opposite Sex
The Man's Opinion: Talk all you want.
The Woman's Opinion: This is emotional cheating.
Me: Sometimes to get someone elses opionion on things is quite good. Know when to stop, know when you can say too much and make sure it isn't a friend ofyour hubby or wife that isn't good!
Dancing Closely
The Man's Opinion: Get your hands off my girl.
The Woman's Opinion: Watch who you're touching.
Me: Nice dancer! but I am married and I am going home to my hubby now thank you.
Flirting
The Man's Opinion: It's all in good fun.
The Woman's Opinion: Know when to draw the line.
Me: Know when to draw the line.
Going to Strip Clubs
The Man's Opinion: Honey, this is what guys do!
The Woman's Opinion: You can look but do not touch.
Me: Look but don't touch.
Cyber Sex
The Man's Opinion: I like the real thing.
The Woman's Opinion: Not only is it cheating, it's also pathetic.

Watching Porn

What's your opinion?
All this talk of death
Live each day as if it is your last.
Enjoy it to the full
There is one thing we can all gauarantee about life, we will end up dead!
My stupid score
A wandering I will go
After a cold, grey, damp morning, the sun is now shining and it is really quite warm out. Doesn't seeing the sun shine make you feel better?
Armed with mp3 player and layered up, I walked the 25mins to Homebase for those bin bags then decided on the way back to pop into Sainsburys for some veg to roast for tonights tea. Hubby and kids have something quick on Tuesdays and Thursdays (which he usually cooks) as they have their Martial Arts class, so I am going to do myself roasted veg with a jacket potato.
All in all my walk took about 45 minutes. The sun shone, ppl were smiling (though that may have something to do with me singing along to my MP3 player) and the walk, though along a busy main road was quite pleasant. I have to admit half way round I did regret my decision as my calf muscles were really hurting, but I persevered.
It is on days like today I wish I lived nearer the sea. To walk along the beach with the sea breeze around me and the sun shining is heaven. Of course if the weather had been this promising this morning I would have chucked the kids in the car and done the 2 hour drive to Hunstanton or Flexistowe (both within equal distance to me) and we would have had our walk along the beach, but alas with the torrential rain that started this morning it was not to be![]()
Never mind there is always tomorrow.
Tuesday Afternoon
Wallowed in bed under the duvet till about ten, which is when I decided to drag myself from out of the covers - was feeling hungry!
Decided to do some Pilates, 1 gold star for me!
Yesterday stitched from noon till 11 last night constantly apart from the 2 hours I took off to cook some tea and eat it. Got to the part of stitching where you backstitch some details in - takes forever to follow but the head now has details and I have begun to stitch the background.
Crap on telly - childrens telly is even worse, got to the point where I banned my youngest from watching Power Rangers - I swear if I heard that tune one more time I would scream! Watched two episodes of Charmed, 1 of Boston Legal then the film Practical Magic - watchable seen it several times but I just love Aidan Quinn in this film, his voice is so sexy.
Oh well I have to walk down to Homebase now and get some bin bags as we seem to have run out of them again!
Lunchtime
I did do some exercise.
I went for a nice brisk walk to the local shops to post a letter, and then to pop into Tesco for some inspiration for tonights tea. Whilst in there I saw these cute little pots of hummous, yummy. So now I am sitting here with some chopped up carrots, celery, tomatoes, radish and cucumber and dipping it all into the hummous before I eat - wonderful!
We (youngest and I) walked the long way home from the shops so I am feeling a little virtuous at the moment lol!
