Steel Feet

One of my friends has steel feet. She bought 2 of those feet cleaner brushes. These feet things are used in the bathtub to clean your feet. You wear them like shoes and do not have to bend down in the shower to clean your feet. I also got one. She has no trouble with them. Unfortunately for me they tickle my feet so bad I cannot put my feet in them. So to me she has got to have no feeling in her feet or steel feet. How sensative are your feet?

Female Friends

Growing up being the youngest of five sisters I have learned that women can be tricky to get along with as sisters but really good and faithful friends. The first problem is getting past the sex thing. Women seem to be a little leary at first when a man is friendly and 9 and 1/2 times out of ten they should be. Once that is solved I have found that I really enjoy women as just friends. Now that I am older these friendships are getting better and better. As I age I look back and see the great changes that have taken place and I do believe there has been a good things happening not only in men and women relationships but with all people. So give friendship with a man or woman in your life a chance. Plus don't forget women are good cooks and bakers and believe me the food is much better shared in friendship. Have you made any new friends?

Flash

We have come a long way since the Commodore 64 Computer. Instead of getting simpler computing has become more and more confusing to me. We still have dial up and are suppose to have quicker INTERNET connecting with WiFi, Broadband, cable, satellite connections and whatever. Lately it has been as fast as the dial up I had years ago, just more expensive. Then we went from floppy discs, to all kinds of extra storage stuff and ended up with a flash drive thing. We have also learned about something called a USB port. It is amazing and I am happy to be experiencing all this stuff. I only wish there was a way to make use of a computer easier and have manuals that were not the size of 2 phone books put together. Children amaze me because they seem to be computer savvy the moment they are born. It is almost like they are taking classes while waiting the nine months or whatever. No wonder women seem to have bigger bellies. It is because they need room for all that computer equipment. Which also explains why computers are getting smaller. How do you keep up with all this computing stuff?

Just wondering.

I seem to get emails from women that always want to advertise their special body parts. Usually without clothing. Mostly they want to chat about making children. Anyway. I was wondering. Do women out there get the same type of emails but from men?

Synapse this!

When my computer fails I get error messages and lost INTERNET connection notices. In real life when my memory shuts down I now call it a senior moment. How is your real life head computer working?

Technical Marvel

I drove my VW Bug to church. I arrived and exited my VW and locked my door with my fancy electronic key by just a push of the button. It locked up my car just fine. Then I realized I had forgot something and pushed the magical button again. Nothing. I pressed it again double nothing. My VW was securely locked. So for about 5 minuted I pushed the electronic device until panic began to surface mixed with a little anxiety. I tried the trunk, lock, unlock buttons and triple nothing leaving me definitely out. I sighed realizing my cell phone was locked in the car also so I could not call the Auto service for help. I also thought how will I get to work, I work weekends and have my days off during the week which I like. Then something strange happened. I noticed my ignition key I used to start the car. No, maybe in the old days they also opened the car doors too. So I gave it a try. That technically marvelous key worked and actually open my VW Bug's door. How are you with technical marvelous devices?

Amen

The story is of a Minister that came up with a home run sermon. He worked hard at it and it was the best one he ever wrote. He was very excited and could not wait for the next service so he could wow the congregation with his super message. On the big day he confidently took the podium and began to deliver the goods. Just when he started a pair of twins started to cry and fuss. The also enticed the other little babies to join in the chorus of baby noises. Baffled, upset and a little angry the Minister stopped his sermon hoping the babies would settle. They did not and only got worse. Finally he gave up and left the podium very disappointed. A few seconds after he left the babies got quiet. He came back and related to the congregation that he wrote a great sermon and that God had reminded him of the Sin of Pride by having the babies disrupt his sermon which he had thought so highly of. He blessed the babies and never gave the sermon but was happy with the results just the same. I learned to be patient that day. Just before the sermon started I had to go to the bathroom very badly. Because the babies cut the sermon short I was able to thank God too and get relief. How was church for you today?

Tired of tires.

Something happened and I am losing air in my one tire. Most of the feedback is I hit a pothole. I am always hitting potholes. I get bored and go pothole hunting when I drive. Mostly potholes hunt me and ambush my car before I can get them. I have small tires and they always look low to me anyway. I went and bought some of that flat tire in a can stuff. It is pretty messy. When I hooked it up it squirted green stuff all over me and the tire. When I was done it was flatter than before I tried to inflate it. I went to a gas station and someone jammed quarters in the air pump machine. I eventually I found an air pump and inflated my tire. Well that is my story. Do you have a tire story?

New baby things.

It is something to see the reaction of mothers and their new little arrivals. One mother had her first girl after a few boys and was so excited. Unfortunately when leaving the hospital the new little girl lost her first little girl sock. The mother was upset because it was the first time she got to dress her little girl up. After a few boy clothes this was special for the new mom. We could not find the sock but did take the new mom's name and number in case we find it. Sometimes something like a little newborn girls new sock can be pretty special. If you find it let me know please?

French Vanilla

I volunteer at a hospital and we have free coffee for the visitors. Once in awhile I buy special cream for them. I surprisingly found out that the French Vanilla was the most popular. I also found out that little children are fascinated by the coffee machine and think it is a big toy. The children also know about the soda machine and are constantly pushing its buttons trying to get a soda. Unfortunately the soda is not free. One little guy kept bugging his mom for a soda. Finally she caved. She put the money in. He pushed the soda button and the soda can came down and fell into the soda tray. He looked at it smiled and began walking away. His mom called after him and reminded him to get his soda. He just smiled and told her he just wanted to press the button and watch the soda come out. Do you know children that just like to push adult buttons?

Pennies

Not much you can do with pennies except maybe collect them in a jar. I keep mine in a sort of jug. I saw a lady try to put pennies in a soda vending machine. She could only put in one penny because it kept rejecting it and would fall in the coin return. After a few tries she gave up. I felt kind of bad for her and pointed out a free coffee machine. She seemed happier. What do you do with your pennies?

Well Hello!

I was driving my yellow VW Beetle with my windows down when I came to a stop sign. A female type person was standing there and gave me a familiar hello! I asked her if she needed a ride downtown where I was heading. She was delighted and got in my car. On the way she was getting a puzzled look in her eyes. Then she asked are you John So and so? I embarrassingly replied no. Then asked her if her name was Kim? She said no. After a few more moments of silence I apologized and explained I thought was Kim and she did the same saying she thought I was John. Well. I gave her a ride downtown which was not really that far and she thanked me and hurried away. Have you ever had this experience?

Children keep us smiling.

My sister sent me this email:

A fun statment made by my 4 year old grandson, Logan, as he Mary and Duncan stopped for Mary's coffee. "Mommy, why do we always have to go to Dunkin Donuts? Can't we go to Logan's Donuts?"
Have a Fun Day!!!!
Mare
Which Donute place do you go to?

Walmart Shopper

Needed a garbage can for my house so I saw one while shopping at Walmart. I picked it up and put it in my cart. It had a lid on it which made me happy because I saw a few without a lid. As I wheeled away a Walmart person stopped me and informed me that the garbage can I put in my basket was for garbage. I questionably smiled and laughingly related that I was buying it to put garbage in it. He smiled back took the lid off the can, that was in my cart, and educated me by showing me there was already garbage in it. Which made sense because it did feel a little heavy when I put it in my cart. He then gently and professionally escorted me to the section where I could buy a brand new empty on. Are you a Walmart shopper?

Just a fine day.

The weather is nice. I am enjoying Mob Wives. Ate some Coconut M&M's. They were good but not very coco-nutty. Foot slipped off my break and hit the gas while driving. A little exciting but recovered and was safe. Still volunteering at the Hospital. The children that visit like our toys so much they take them home. So we get to buy more. What is fun is I get to say hello to you. Are you enjoying Fathers Day? I hope you are.

Jesus has a sister.

I went to church the other day and found out Jesus has a sister and she attends the same church I do. In church there is a hugh statue of Jesus and his sister that comes to church looks just like him. The statue is tall; she is tall. In fact they both have the same eyes, nose, hair and facial expression. I was in awe and was staring at her when she happened to look my way. I turned my head real quick so I would not get smited or something.
She is pretty in her own statuesque way so I have to be careful none of those deadly sins creep into my thoughts. I did wonder what it would be like to date her. What do you think it would be like to be on a date with her?
