I’ve given up social media for the New Year and am trying to make friends outside Facebook while
applying the same principles. Every day, I walk down the street and tell passersby what I’ve eaten, how I feel, what I did the night before, and what I will do tomorrow. Then I give them pictures of my family, my dog, and me gardening. I also listen to their conversations and tell them I love them. And it works. I already have three people following me—two
police officers and a psychiatrist.

push my luck, make mountains out of molehills, bend over backward, run around in circles, put my foot
in my mouth, go over the edge, and beat around the bush.

Good morning everyboomie.
Welcome to the weekend!!
I hope your's is chock full of fun......and other interesting....stuff.
I enjoyed the game last night until I could no longer hold my eyes open. I watched all but the last 10 or 15 minutes.
When I dozed off the Cowboys were ahead 21 to 10. When I woke up someone had changed the score to 24 to 21, San Francisco wins.
Well it was only a pre-season game. That means it's ok if your team looses. NOT!!
Time to walk the dogs.
Have a happy day everyone.
