Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.

ALBERT EINSTEIN

`````````````````````````

Out of Use

As I was nursing my baby, my cousin’s six-year-old daughter, Krissy, came into the room. Never having seen anyone breast- feed before, she was intrigued and full of all kinds of questions about what I was doing.

After mulling over my answers, she remarked, "My mom has some of those, but I don’t think she knows how to use them."

````````````````

Seeing is Believing

My father and I belong to the religion of Sikhism. We both wear the traditional turban and often encounter strange comments and questions. Once, in a restaurant, a child stared with amazement at my father. She finally got the courage to ask, "Are you a genie?"

Her mother, caught off guard, turned red in the face and apologized for the remark. But my dad took no offense and decided to humor the child.

He replied, "Why, yes I am. I can grant you three wishes."

The child’s mother blurted out, "Really?"

``````````````````````````

Smart Eyes

A first-grader came to the ophthalmology office where I work to have his vision checked. He sat down and I turned off the lights. Then I switched on a projector that flashed the letters F, Z and B on a screen. I asked the boy what he saw.

Without hesitation he replied, "Consonants."

`````````````````````

Telling the Truth

Being a teenager and getting a tattoo seem to go hand and hand these days. I wasn’t surprised when one of my daughter’s friends showed me a delicate little Japanese symbol on her hip. "Please don’t tell my parents," she begged.

"I won’t," I promised. "By the way, what does that stand for?"

"Honesty," she said.

`````````````````````````

White Lie

I am five feet, three inches tall and pleasingly plump. After I had a minor accident, my mother accompanied me to the emergency room.

The triage nurse asked for my height and weight, and I blurted out, "Five-foot-eight and 125 pounds."

While the nurse pondered this information, my mother leaned over to me. "Sweetheart," she gently chided, "this is not the Internet."

```````````````````````

Asking for Help

While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about six years old. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, "Are you a cop?"

"Yes," I answered, and continued writing the report.

"My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?"

"Yes, that’s right," I told her.

"Well, then," she said as she extended her foot toward me, "would you please tie my shoe?"

``````````````````````

Fake Teeth

The orthodontist and his assistants were removing my ten-year-old son’s dental appliance. Because it was cemented to his upper teeth, they had to use some pressure to release it. When it finally popped out, three of his baby teeth came out as well.

My boy was horrified when he saw the gaps. "Well," he said to the staff gathered around him, "who do I see about getting dentures?"

``````````````````

Gritty Chocolate

As a dentist, I recently tried out a new chocolate-flavored pumice paste on my patients. No one liked it except for a six-year-old boy. While I polished his teeth, he continued to smile and lick his lips. "You must really like this new flavor," I said.

"Yep," he replied, nodding with satisfaction. "It tastes just like the time I dropped my candy bar in the sandbox."

```````````````````````

Wrong Cure

The commercial for Viagra with the middle-aged men running happily through the streets to the song "We Are the Champions" came on while my husband and ten-year-old son were watching TV. After seeing these jubilant men kicking up their heels, my son turned to his father and said, "Dad, would you be that happy if you got rid of your heartburn?"

```````````````````

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


It's a wonderful day in the neighborhood. Hot again, but otherwise wonderful. wink


My problem is trying to take the dogs to the park, go to Walmart and get groceries, and come back home and mow the lawn before it gets too hot. yes


We'll see how that goes. headscratch


I'm thinking about getting an air conditioned lawn mower.....and one of those caps that hold a can of beer with long straw. cool


My neighbors don't seem to enjoy watching me mow my yard naked. eek


With all that sun I look more like a lobster anyway. blush


Have a happy day everyone. joy

I put one out on FaceBook tonight, Joe. Mother nature was showing off her glory again at sunset! So far I only have swollen scratches all over, but I'm afraid they might be more than that since they are swelling and burning so much. Tomorrow will shed a new light.

Sweet dreams...

Good morning everyone, have a Super Thump Day. L4L, birthday to the boys. Ana, I hope it's not poison ivy. Sorta, I thought I was the only person who kept back ups. I even have one for my convection oven. Joe, I'm glad your AC is fixed. Danish, BB Pancakes, and Bacon Sandwiches in the NC. summer

Good Morning Boomers summer

Joe, glad your AC is fixed. Stay cool.

Ana, hope it's a mild case of Poison Ivy. The disadvantage of romping through the woods. frown

Gerry, wishing you a great day!

Connie, happy day wishes!

Good day wishes to ALL! wave2

Joe, an air conditioned lawn mower sounds like a great idea. grin

Sorry to hear about the poison ivy, Ana. frown

Have a happy day, too, Gerry.

Have a terrific day, Connie.

Good day to you as well, Gail.

It looks like I'm off again today. There were supposed to have been follow up hours added for this week, but then the manager ended up saying that there were no extra hours. rolleyes I really hope things pick up soon, as otherwise I'm going to have to go job hunting, which I hate to do.

Today, however, I'm going to enjoy my time singing and gaming. I have been noticing significant improvements in my practices, which is always a good thing. thumbsup

Okay, off to see what else is happening. Have a great Thursday, everyone. summer

Hope everyone's enjoying your day. happydance

Been running around like a crazy woman all day. Taking a 10 minute break and then back at it.

Whew, I'm looking forward to the weekend, when I intend to do "not much." wavegirl

Busy, g'sons are celebrating their b'day tonight, so had lots to do. All done except for tacos which I'm about to go make. Then I shall collapse!

How was yours?

I think I just scratched other annoying plants and don't have poison ivy. THank goodness! The swelling went down and I just have really reed scratches. yay

Shadow got his stitches out and has permission to swim again. He's happy!

venus, I hope you get more hours but enjoy your time off!

I have to run, trivia night!
