Welcome! Hola! Guten Tag!
Here’s my thought…
I signed in today to do a blog post and I wasn’t staring back at me! I don’t know how I did it, but I must have deleted my own picture. Maybe that’s a good thing. Do you ever get tired of looking at the same ole’ “you” sometimes. I do. So, I’ve decided to go with the flow and change my picture more often and be me every day! Why? Because I change every day. The only thing wrong with that is that I seem to be changing faster than I used to. Maybe that’s why I don’t really like pictures to be taken of me. I can see how far I’ve come and sometimes it’s just not a pretty picture. No picture turns out the way I expect it to. Why? Because I’m not the same as yesterday, or even an hour ago, or oops, there… I changed again! Oh well, its still all good, as long as no one starts throwing rotten tomatoes at me. Enough of that.
I really wanted to present something that was sent to me that I found curious, but true, thus I am calling them “truisms”.
1.A day without sunshine is like night.
2. On the other hand, you have different fingers.
3. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.
4. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
5. Remember, half the people you know are below average.
6. He who laughs last, thinks slowest.
7. Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
8. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.
9. Support bacteria. They’re the only culture most people have.
10. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
11. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
12.. If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.
13. How many of you believe in psycho-kinesis? Raise my hand.
14. OK, so what’s the speed of dark?
15. When everything is coming your way, you’re in the wrong lane.
16.. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
17. How much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?
18. Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines.
19. What happens if you get scared half to death, twice?
20.. Why do psychics have to ask you your name?
21. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering, ‘What the heck happened?’
22. Just remember — if the world didn’t suck, we would all fall off.
23. Light travels faster than sound. That’s why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
24. Life isn’t like a box of chocolates. It’s more like a jar of jalapenos. What you do today, might burn your butt tomorrow.

(trike for me) to just take an early Saturday morning ride and maybe hit a few of the neighborhood sales. We had stopped at a couple of sales on our tour when unbeknownst to me (he usually follows me in the bike lane) he turned off to follow a sign that I hadn’t noticed. Riding onward, I noticed that he wasn’t following (if he really needed me he’d call me, cell phones mandatory on a trip like this). I saw a sign for a sale just 2 blocks before our original starting point, and followed it into one of the mazes that flanks the circle around the lakes where we live. ”And what to my ‘wandering’ eyes should appear?” A “waterbed” (water not included) …complete with shelved headboard and 6 under the bed drawers. It was made of pine and had a few stickers, kid’s stuff, on it, and about a quarter inch of dust and grime. It had potential! The kicker was that they were asking just $15.00! Now, I had been trying to think of how to better organize my bead repository, my bead room, and this seemed like the perfect solution. The parts to the bed were laying un-neatly stacked by the side of the driveway and my mind was working overtime putting it together in my head and justify the buy. It consisted of headboard, two sets of 3 drawer base side rails, two long trim boards, and a header and footer board. It also included the plywood pieces (2) upon which the waterbed form was meant to rest. I thought it was a fair price, so I didn’t even dicker on the price with the soon to be former owners, and it was mine. My next thought, call Denny! And speak of the devil… he came riding up the street. It was a good thing, too, because I only carry about $10.00 and I needed a few more from him to actually complete the transaction.
