Spring appears to have sprung
We've been making the most of the lovely sunny days, going for long walks around the village and being nosy as usual...
Here's a quickie just to keep things going. When it starts raining again, I'll do a longer post.

This one is for Tumbleweed
GrannyJ and Shapeshifterbelly sent us these videos. I thought of Tumbleweed, go figure!
The first one is GrannyJ's:
This one is also hilarious, from Shapeshifterbelly:
Thank you for the laughs, GJ and SSB.
BONUS
I found this cartoon and thought of TW (again).
[SSB will travel tomorrow to be with a family member who had an accident which resulted in a broken hip, followed by an operation, who's in pain but lacks a certain degree of commonsense and is not keen on going to the physical rehab sessions [breathe]. Good vibes to counter the stubbornness and help with the recovery will be greatly appreciated!]

A nice cartoon for GrannyJ
PGFan sent us this cartoon specially for GrannyJ. It says a lot about how technology brought changes to the ways in which we communicate... Thank you, PGFan.

It's the dog's turn to cheer us up!
I forgot I had a medical appointment today, so I had to post this from my i-pad. The Blogger app doesn't have all the features, such as scheduling the posts for publishing at a set time... Today's post will catch most of you still in bed! Good morning.

Old age wit and wisdom
GrannyJ sent us a few funnies for the weekend. Thanks, GJ. I added a couple of bonus cartoons so the post wouldn't look "naked."
I just took a leaflet out of my mailbox, informing me that I can have sex at 73. I'm so happy, because I live at number 71 so it's not too far to walk home afterwards. And it's the same side of the street. I don't even have to cross the road!
~~~~~
Answering machine message: "I am not available right now, but thank you for caring enough to call. I am making some changes in my life. Please leave a message after the beep. If I do not return your call, you are one of the changes."
~~~~~
My wife and I had words, but I didn't get to use mine.
~~~~~
Frustration is trying to find your glasses without your glasses.
~~~~~
Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting.
~~~~~
The irony of life is that, by the time you're old enough to know your way around,you're not going anywhere.
~~~~~
God made man before woman so as to give him time to think of an answer for her first question.
~~~~~
I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps getting harder to find one.

Thanks, Amy. I also found a good collection of puns in one single picture:

One for the Canadians
Dear Diary:
Aug. 12
Moved into our new home in Ontario . It is so beautiful here. The
hills and river valleys are so picturesque. I have a beautiful old oak tree
in my front yard. Can hardly wait to see the change in the seasons. This is
truly God's Country.
Oct. 14
Ontario is such a gorgeous place to live, one of the real special places on
Earth. The leaves are turning a multitude of different colors. I love all
of the shades of reds, oranges and yellows, they are so bright. I want to
walk through all of the beautiful hills and spot some white tail deer. They
are so graceful, certainly they must be the most peaceful creatures on
Earth. This must be paradise.
Nov. 11
Deer season opens this week. I can't imagine why anyone would
want to shoot these elegant animals. They are the very symbol of peace and
tranquility here in Ontario . I hope it snows soon. I love it here!
Dec. 2
It snowed last night. I woke to the usual wonderful sight:
everything covered in a beautiful blanket of white. The oak tree is
magnificent. It looks like a postcard. We went out and swept the snow from
the steps and driveway. The air is so crisp, clean and refreshing. We had a
snowball fight. I won, and the snowplow came down the street. He must have
gotten too close to the driveway because we had to go out and shovel the
end of the driveway again. What a beautiful place. Nature in harmony. I
love it here!
Dec. 12
More snow last night. I love it! The plow did his cute little
trick again. What a rascal. A winter wonderland. I love it here!
Dec. 19
More snow - couldn't get out of the driveway to get to work in
time. I'm exhausted from all of the shoveling. And that snowplow!
Dec. 21
More of that white shit coming down. I've got blisters on my
hands and a kink in my back. I think that the snowplow driver waits around
the corner until I'm done shoveling the driveway. Asshole.
Dec. 25
White Christmas? More freakin' snow. If I ever get my hands on
the sonofabitch who drives that snowplow, I swear I'll castrate him. And
why don't they use more salt on these roads to melt this crap??
Dec. 28
It hasn't stopped snowing since Christmas. I have been inside
since then, except of course when that SOB "Snowplow Harry" comes by. Can't
go anywhere, cars are buried up to the windows. Weather man says to expect
another 10 inches. Do you have any idea how many shovelfuls 10 inches is??
Jan. 1
Happy New Year? The way it's coming down it won't melt until the
4th of July! The snowplow got stuck down the road and the shithead
actually had the balls to come and ask to borrow a shovel! I told him I'd
broken 6 already this season.
Jan. 4
Finally got out of the house. We went to the store to get some
food and a goddamn deer ran out in front of my car and I hit the bastard.
It did $3,000 in damage to the car. Those beasts ought to be killed. The
hunters should have a longer season if you ask me.
Jan. 27
Warmed up a little and rained today. The rain turned the snow
into ice and the weight of it broke the main limb of the oak tree in the
front yard and it went through the roof. I should have cut that old piece
of shit into fireplace wood when I had the chance.
April 23
Took my car to the local garage. Would you believe the whole
underside of the car is rusted away from all of that damn salt they dump on
the road? Car looks like a bashed up, heap of rusted cow shit.
May 10
Sold the car, the house, and moved to Florida . I can't imagine
why anyone in their freakin' mind would ever want to live in the God
forsaken Province of Ontario...

Chicken stability
I don't know if some commercials are broadcast all around the world, but this one is on UK television at the moment and, as I find chickens quite funny, it hit all the right spots with me. It's a very clever idea. If you haven't seen it before, enjoy:

I'm so lucky!
Thirty years ago I married my wonderful Peter. We had our ups and downs but here we are, still going strong!
I consider myself a very lucky woman.
Here's to the next thirty!

I couldn't resist!
We'll have a happy View and quite a few people groaning...
The artist has a Facebook page, where there are are many other cartoons. I noticed she's not only a lover of puns, but of animals as well.
