COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

My eyes are spectacular! I haven't seen like this for many years. Now to tackle the reading issue. I don't want reading glasses hung around my neck all the time.

However, last week I was shopping. When I go into a store I put my sunglasses on top of my head. So then I get out my reading glasses. A while later I'm digging through my bag, muttering about where are my glasses? Yep! the salesman says "I think they're on your head"! I had been roaming the huge store with 2 pairs of glasses on my head.
So not cool! [emoji15]

Whahaha, You think that is bad, the one day we were visiting the in-laws and I was asking where my glasses where. Eventually someone told me that I was wearing them. At least yours were on the top of your head, mine were already on. I don't think anybody could beat that bit of crazy!!

Ha ha! That's like when I search for something and then, finally, find it...in my hand! [emoji23]

Just for a laugh:

An old geezer, who had been a retired farmer for a long time, became very bored and decided to open a medical clinic. He put up a sign outside that said: “Dr. Geezer’s clinic. “Get your treatment for $500. If not cured get back $1,000.”

Doctor “Young,” who was positive that this old geezer didn’t know beans about medicine, thought he would make some money. So he went to Dr. Geezer’s clinic.
This is what transpired.

Dr. Young: — “Dr. Geezer, I have lost all taste in my mouth. Can you please help me?

Dr. Geezer: — “Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put three drops in his mouth.”

Dr. Young: — “Aaagh !! — “This is Gasoline!”

Dr. Geezer: — “Congratulations! You’ve got your taste back. That will be $500.”

Dr. Young is annoyed and returns in a few days figuring to recover his money. — “I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything.”

Dr. Geezer: — “Nurse, bring medicine from box 22 and put three drops in the patient’s mouth.”

Doctor Young: — “Oh no you don’t. That’s gasoline!”

Dr. Geezer: — “Congratulations! You’ve got your memory back. That will be $500.”

Dr. Young leaves angrily and comes back after several more days. — “My eyesight has become weak. I can hardly see.

Dr. Geezer: — “Well, I don’t have any medicine for that ,so here’s your $1000 back.”

Dr. Young: — “But this is only $500.”

Dr. Geezer: — “Congratulations! You got your vision back! That will be $500.”

Moral of story: Just because you’re “Young” doesn’t mean you can outsmart an old “Geezer!”

Maybe you're just starting a new fashion trend! Now you have to figure out how to wear THREE pairs of sunglasses so it looks intentional...

Same here!

Just dropping in to say "hello" (and to put up a place marker so I don't have too much trouble finding where I left off).

Similar/but different story. We were driving back to Tbilisi from Yerevan one late Sunday afternoon. Once we passed up and over and through some interesting terrain, wifey says “You should probably slow down, it’s really dark out”. I looked over and said, well once you take your SUNGLASSES off, it will be a lot brighter!

[emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] Maybe your wife should join us here in the CDR. She is just as crazy as the rest of us. i.e The right kind of crazy. [emoji23] [emoji23]

Looked at our banana trees closely today and found a second flower bud pushing up. So exciting! The trick now is to keep them well watered.

Picked up more dandelion, kale, and cactus pads this morning. On the way home, drove through an area lush with new growth bamboo shoots. Just happened to have my pruners....so, cut a nice bunch of bamboo for Sully Monster. As a bonus, there was a young mulberry bush there too. A few branches of everything for a snack.

Good Thursday everyone.

Have been having problems with the internet lately. So have not been able to come online as much. I am glad that the dress has been found, that the visitors won't be staying too long (otherwise Yvonne will go into hiding). That Linda arrived safely.
Oli your optunia pad looks good. What they all said re making new ones and looking after it.
Heather I loved seeing your before and after pic of Jaydon and the torts.
Cathie, sorry I did not get the joke about the litter box [emoji85] .
Hi Noel, how are your eyes?
Hi Karen, how are your eyes as well?
Lena I agree with Anne, we need a front avatar pic.
Anne, how is my favorite dragon doing?
Sabine, Thank you so much for the rain, my garden really appreciated it.
Ben how are the exams going?
Enjoy your Thursdays everyone.

Hi Carol, hopefully your I-net is running normally soon again. The next rain clouds I will push in your direction too. Have a nice day.

Better you find missing things in your hands than not knowing where you have left them..... That is my problem.

Good evening all, it's been pretty quiet in here.
I hope that Carol's internet is OK, Yvonne is having fun with her visitors and that Linda is enjoying some time with her Mum.
Mark's got a lovely bunch of coconuts bananas which seem to be keeping him occupied and I hope Ben's exams are going well.
Good to see you popping in Bee, I hope all your 'family' are behaving themselves.
How are the turkey babies Heather?
What's everyone else up to?
Me - I've bought 5 'white' jackets in 2 days but none of them are actually 'white, white'. They are off white, cream, or ivory so none of them go with my frock.
So it's back to original plan A and next week I'll take them all back to the shops! Oh joy!!!!
Never mind - all eyes will be on the bride anyway and I'm sure she'll look gorgeous!
