Cats and Dogs

Today has been a day of rain spurts.... I found it so relaxing. I think I must of said "it's raining cats and dogs out there" at least 20 times or more... Where in the heck did that saying come from? And so I run my little fingers over the computer keyboard and type that very question into MyPoints search toolbar and came up with this....

The expression comes from early England where the peasants made the roofs of their houses out of straw. Dogs, cats and mice would sleep on the roof which was the warmest place they could find (they weren't allowed in the houses). When it rained a little bit more than a medium shower, the mice would fall of a run away. When it rained heavily, the cats and dogs fell off. If a peasant were to look out it would have seemed it had been raining cats and dogs

Now where I come from there was an old couple that had a goat that pretty much lived on the roof of their farm home. Every day driving by you'd see that goat just laying there - it was the funniest sight ever. Now that I am old and thinking back to youth it saddens me to know they have passed on.

My husband likes to pick on my way of speaking like "tally ho", and "your being a cretin" but he loves it best when I am upset because I can't control the accent... We'll leave it at that! I miss you GrandMum so much and I have her to thank for my high strung temper but she had such grace she could get away with it - where often enough I can not...


Not much to report today because it was just that quiet... Jorge played his computer games and of course watch ghost clips on http://www.youtube.com/ and I kind of went in out of mini sleeps today - something I just don't do or do enough lol...

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
What saying do you find yourself saying a lot?

Farting in RV's

To fart or not to fart is the question. What? Evielynne have you flipped in your mind? I sure have and it's all because Jorge and Milita (our border collie) made me almost die with laughter tonight - which is for the reason for the topic. And if I don't get some comments over this one - then I am not getting readers at all...

Tonight we went to Cousins Restaurant with our Lovely Woman and Real Leader friend (lol yeppers I am a total smarty pants but it's all HER fault). They have great service except tonight. Our poor little deary had issues with the dishes and slammed them down each every time she placed something down. But that won't stop us from going there - I'm sure the pretty little thing had some issues we where unaware of. And like life she'll get over it and become the booming great waitress yet again.


I know he looks so innocent - but trust me he's not - lol
 So we eat our meal - I had Pot Roast and Jorge had meatloaf and our friends had meatloaf and turkey (I know my family is thinking "wait Christmas didn't have turkey?" is she sick - next time ok....) then off to the grocery store to get some odds and ends and then head home.

Its when we got home the real adventure started. We where counting our can tops for an order we sold today and then we paused for a couple of minutes to catch our breath. And SNAP - Jorge lets out a big one. A stinky FART (yes I said it folks the "F" word) but thats not the funny part. Milita growled at Jorge. We both broke to almost tears laughing. I guess my guard dog was trying to protect me from the F bomb for sure.

So be warned if you entered my RV be sure that you have ingested some major BEANO.  http://www.beanogas.com/ is a great site to get all the facts about how to prevent my dog from growling at you.



The Bathtub Burbler

A man who had been doing chores around the house all day was feeling stiff and sore. His wife, who was very pleased at her husband's initiative, decided to reward him by drawing him a hot bath, serving him a nice Rye whiskey, and joining him later for some extra fun.

The husband was quite happy to be pampered in this manner, so he lay in the tub, and called out for his wife to bring him his drink.

She said: If there's anything else I can do for you dear, just call for it, and I'll be happy to bring it up to you.

As soon as he heard her reach the bottom of the stairs, he let out a long, burbly bathtub fart, which produced enough stink filled bubbles to fog up the entire bathroom.

Moments later, his wife enters the room with a hot water bottle.

The confused husband looks up and says: What on earth gave you the idea that I needed a hot water bottle?

She answers: Didn't you just say, "Whataboutahottawaterbottle?"
