Manic Monday & Heads or Tails

Sunday night I prepared most of my post for Manic Monday's Bug... then I got distracted and never did get it posted, so no one knows I played Manic Monday this week. Oh well. After doing the work I couldn't just delete it, so I finished it and here it is.

I also wanted to play along with Heads or Tails today but to do so I'd have had to post it last night and I didn't.... so I'm too late for that too.... and you can scroll down in this post to see it anyway.

I changed the date and time of posting from when I started to when I actually finished, or there abouts, haha. Just to keep things in better order... sigh.


Today, Morgen (a.k.a. Mo) at It's A Blog Eat Blog World, has given us the word bug to post about and have some fun with for his Manic Monday Meme (or Challenge, if you prefer).


As I sit here watching TV and working/playing on my computer, with my rabbit sitting quietly on my chest (I'm semi reclined) there is a moth flying around me, not the first one tonight, that one died a sudden death recently. I don't know how these flying bugs manage to get into my home with screens on all windows and the door that are open, but manage it they do. This bugs me. I don't like flying bugs. In fact, I don't like bugs at all! I wish they'd all just bug off.



Okay... so I must confess that there are some Bugs I do like after all. I mean, who wouldn't like these bugs?

I really don't like to be negative, and telling what I don't like is negative... so I choose to out weigh that with some positive. What rhymes with bugs? That would be hugs!!









I send big beautiful
to all that visit my blog!!




Skittles started her own meme/challenge that she calls Heads or Tails.

This week's theme/prompt is:
HEADS - Joke


An old hillbilly farmer had a wife who nagged him unmercifully. From morning till night (and sometimes later), she was always complaining about something. The only time he got any relief was when he was out plowing with his old mule. He tried to plow a lot.

One day, when he was out plowing, his wife brought him lunch in the field. He drove the old mule into the shade, sat down on a stump, and began to eat his lunch. Immediately, his wife began haranguing him again. Complain, nag, nag; it just went on and on. All of a sudden, the old mule lashed out with both hind feet; caught her smack in the back of the head. Killed her dead on the spot.

At the funeral several days later, the minister noticed something rather odd. When a woman mourner would approach the old farmer, he would listen for a minute, then nod his head in agreement; but when a man mourner approached him, he would listen for a minute, then shake his head in disagreement.

This was so consistent, the minister decided to ask the old farmer about it. So after the funeral, the minister spoke to the old farmer, and asked him why he nodded his head and agreed with the women, but always shook his head and disagreed with all the men.

The old farmer said, 'Well, the women would come up and say something about how nice my wife looked, or how pretty her dress was, so I'd nod my head in agreement.' 'And what about the men?' the minister asked.
'They wanted to know if the mule was for sale.'


Sex In The Shower

In a recent survey, people from Detroit have proved to be the most likely to have had sex in the shower!

In the survey, carried out for leading toiletries firm 'Brut', a huge 86% of Detroit residents said that they have enjoyed sex in the shower.

The other 14% said they hadn't been to prison!


Wishing you all a wonderful day!!

How fun !!! I enjoyed the Wordless Birds … the bugs & hugs … the laughter at the humorous stories in your HoTs post … and Saturday’s quote too ;--)

Then I followed directions and scrolled down to your Photo Hunt ‘support’ post. I’m chuckling because my Photo Hunt post (at Sacred Ruminations) focused on something similar (yet different). I can’t recall whether or not you visited to see my new (and old) chairs.

Thanks for dropping by my ‘donkey’ story today … leaving the link back here. Seems like it’s been a while since I’ve visited here. Life’s been very busy lately and I’ve fallen behind on such things.
Hugs and blessings,

I loved the farmer and his mule joke. It was very funny.

It seems that a lot of the HoTs are on pets or animals this week. Mine is an answer to the age old question of 'What goes Ha Ha Kerplopp?' and it's up at my place.
