I hate to admit it.......but much of this is probably TRUE!!!!

(thanks for the chuckle Heather)

NINE WORDS WOMEN USE
(1) Fine:
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
(2) Five Minutes:
If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
(3) Nothing:
This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
(4) Go Ahead:
This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
(5) Loud Sigh:
This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misu nderstoo d by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)
(6) That's Okay:
This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
(7) Thanks:
A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').
(8) Whatever:
Is a woman's way of saying F-- YOU!
(9) Don't worry about it, I got it:
Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

* Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.

* Send this to all the women you know to give them a good laugh, cause they know it's true!!!

This is really embarrassing.....I didn't get it!

A PRE-SCHOOL TEST FOR YOU......................
Which way is the bus below traveling? To the left or to the right?





Can't make up your mind?

Look carefully at the picture again.

Still don't know?

Pre-schoolers all over the United States were shown this picture asked the same question. 90% of the pre-schooler's gave this answer.

"The bus is traveling to the left."

When asked, "Why do you think the bus is traveling to the left?"

They answered: "Because you can't see the door to get on the bus.

" How do you feel now........are you embarrassed right along with me???


Thanks Lori.....GOOD ONE!

WORDS from the SCRAPBOOKING WORLD

Love this BLOG
http://onelittleword.typepad.com/
Followed it closely when it started, then for some reason.........I didn't visit much!! Must get back to it.........even if just to see the WORD, the poswer of ONE LITTLE WORD!!!

Current word...........START!

Start makes me think of two things............the NEW YEAR, and little TYSON..........both a START!

Will scrapbook a START page for Tyson!

couple of 02.01.09 tidbits!

did some dishes.....didn't finish!
made a BUNCH of cards for swaps!
did some laundry
made supper(it was yummy, nothing GREAT but yum yum!)
Daylan went to a movie
damm cold here.......enough already!
really tired of this cold......cough..........enough already!!!
ate six+ Lindors
only had one teaspoon of ice cream
it's VERY cold.......put clothes in the dryer and didn't turn it on, when to switch the next load over, and the wet ones were frozen in the dryer!

off to do a little reading..........start a Suduko puzzle(yesterday one is a KILLER, never even come close to finishing it), write in my journal!

looking forward to a SU managers meeting in Westaskiwin tomorrow.........should be GOOD!!

Ongoing RESOLUTION!

I have decided I have many things I need to kick up a notch.......so making a traditional resolution won't work!

I will(try to)do something daily that is positive, an improvement from the past! These things will change from day to day, some repeating themselves more often than others(things that need the most work)........over all I'm hoping to improve the BIG PICTURE by doing LITTLE THINGS!!!

I was given a journal for Christmas(thanks Daylan)that will work great for this.
I will jot things in my journal, then once in awhile update here..........wish me luck keeping on top of this!

Watch for things like:
Eat better
Eat less
Read more
Volunteer
Take more(and better)pictures
Exercise
Send out more cards..........just because!
Make random phone calls to people I don't call regularily........just because!
Send out just because e-mails..........hopefully make someones day by being nice!
Surround myself by postive people!
Distance myself from people with attitude/a negative aura!
Empty my kitchen sink more often!
Clean house more often........or hire a house cleaner!
Do more scrapbooking, try and get published(Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine)using photos of Ashley(it's her turn)!
Use OLW for scrapbooking inspiration.........love the one little word concept!
Focus on LESS drama...........some thrive on it, but it drives me crazy!


there's more, but that's enough for now..........need to leave a few surprises for you!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Looking forward to a NEW YEAR.........
I find myself reflecting on 2008, and wondering what I need to improve on for 2009!!

I am at a place I would have never imagined I would be at as I enter into my 50's! Shouldn't life be getting easier, rather than leaving me feeling more confused.......just wondering, it seems it should??

I guess we will see.............maybe 2009 will have the answer!(but I'm not holding my breath)
