It is true I LOVE jelly beans. I even bought myself some for easter. lol.

It takes me a lot longer than 10 minutes to hoover and dust that is why I LOVE the poem.

Good news about my doggie, the cells they tested from the mass in her leg are consistent with a lipoma which is a benign fatty tumour so sthere is nothing much to do or worry about. We are so happy, she is such a good old dog. Jan

Yea!!!!!!

Good for the dog and you! Nice to read some good news in here. Bless.

Cheers,

Jim

Ten minutes???? Shucks! We live in the country. We don't hoover; we use shovels! lol

Cheers,

Jim

Shovels? Now there's a thought! Shovels! Of course! That would be the perfect tool for my 16-year-olds room! Hmm. Come to think of it, a rake might come in handy, too....

Jan, I am so glad to hear your doggie is doing okay. You must be so relieved. She must be very special to you.

Lol, it takes me a lot longer than 10 minutes to vacuum and dust, but I just thought that was funny...Wouldn't it be nice if you could get it all done in that time!

Yes, I can see it now. Is it a bird? Is it a plane. It's---SUPER DUSTER! Faster than a leaping frog! More amplified than a teenager's jam box! Here comes SUPER DUSTER to the rescue of every home!

A friend sent me an email with this poem attached I do believe the sentiment is sound
although I am not advocating tolerating filth forever. lol. Jan

Life is short. Enjoy it!
Dust if you must,
but wouldn't it be better to
paint a picture or write a letter,
bake a cake
or
plant a seed,
ponder the difference between want and need?
Dust if you must, but there's not much time

with rivers to swim and mountains to climb,
music to hear and books to read,
friends to cherish and life to lead.
Dust if you must, but the world's out

there with the sun in your eyes,
the wind in your hair,
a flutter of snow,
a shower of rain.
This day will not come around again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go -- and go you must --
you, yourself will make more dust!

Share this with all the people in your life!
It's not what you gather, but what you scatter
that tells what kind of life you have lived.

Cheers Jan

Thanks, Jan, for sharing this.

I received this card this morning
and it sounds so much like my prayers
that I brought it here for others to read

This was in my Senior Courier:
All I learned about life I learned from the Easter Bunny
Don't put all your eggs in one basket
Everybody needs a friend who is all ears
There's no such thing as too much candy
All work and no play can make you a basket case
A cute tail attracks a lot of attention
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits
Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans

Good things come in small sugar coated packages
The grass is always greener in someone else's basket
To show your true colors, you have to come out of your shell
The best things in life are still sweet and gooey
Happr Spring!

Oh now, this is so good , that
I'm gonna share it with everybody at work. Yeah!
Reps to you! ~ Annie

Gratefulgrace, I am so pleased to hear about your dog. Cassie, our little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel had a fatty tumour on her leg also. You must be so relieved.


We went to Bristol - the Cribbs Causeway Mall -yesterday to collect Rob's anniversary present - a DAB radio cd player. I think I will let him have it early as he is in a lot of pain at the moment with his back (osteoarthritis). Maybe he will enjoy setting it all up and get some rest.


Flowers are coming on a treat in the greenhouse.


Blessings

Edit--my birthday isn't until the 7th. It seems that we are on Australian time at CF.

Good morning all!

Wow, I'm watching the weather change here in Texas. It's 41 degrees right now, and we may get snow on Saturday.

Our trees have already started to set fruit. It would be hard to lose that another year. At least I brought my baby tomatoes, in, as they were planted in pots.

Well...time to go bother my teens, who have the day off. I think I'll suggest Jim's idea. Rakes and shovels for their rooms!

May you all have a blessed Good Friday.

 

[gratefulgrace]

Oh Ariel I am so glad I didn't miss your Birthday.

 

[Jim1927]

It must be nice to have two birthdays in a row..................Happy Happy Birthday to Ariel....You may have the day off!

Cheers,

Jim

 

[Ariel]

Oh Ariel I am so glad I didn't miss your Birthday.

Jan, you are so sweet! Thank you!

No, you didn't miss it at all. It actually is today, Saturday the 7th.

I love you, dear one! And those goodies look wonderful--thank you!

Yeah, I didn't plan it, but it seems I started my birthday yesterday in Australia and now have swung around the world and celebrated for TWO WHOLE DAYS!!!! But today, Saturday, April 7th is my ACTUAL birthday, so I can't stop celebrating now, right?


Hey Jim--let's do that when your birthday comes up! Celebate for two whole days! Whoo Hooo!

 

[Jim1927]

Don't tell anyone, but to-day, the 7th is also my younger daughter's birthday...She even phoned to remind us...lol

Cheers,

Jim

Jim so bad here they got the snow trucks back out had to sand the roads. Been snowing for two days. Down under 20 tonight.
Bonnie

 

[Jim1927]

Thanks Bonnie,,I will make sure she knows.

We had a wee scattering of snow in the night and it remains cold, but nothing compared to what you got, and what was predicted for us. I can wear shoes to church!

Cheers,

Jim

PS, Thanks for the card/

 

[gratefulgrace]

Bonnie my husband says it is all because of GLOBAL WARMING. He is being facetious(sp) of course. Our weather was cloudy and wet with an occaisional sunny break but not that great.
Anyway we still have so much to celebrate on this Resurrection Sunday don't we. Jan

Awww, another April girl. We're special, you know!

I'm tickled that she called to remind you. It reminds me of my son who returned my e-mail and reminded me that he is now 27. As if I didn't know!

Our husbands think alike, Jan! Mine has been going around saying much the same thing.

It snowed here in Texas. With temperatures at 26 degrees for two days, I am sure we lost our fruit. My dear spouse and I try to look at it positively. We find ourselves saying to each other, "Aren't you glad our livelihood doesn't depend on our ability to produce a crop?" I'll tell you, the farmers in West Texas must be the most hardy, resilient optimists in the world. Not only do we get late frosts, but also devastating hail storms. It just rends your heart to see them put in still another crop after losing two or three or even four...
