A woman's work.......



For all the women that stay at home
and don't work
:

Inline image 1


A man came home from work and found his 3 children outside, still in their pajamas,
playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn around garden.

The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house and no sign of the dog.

Walking in the door, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over,
the throw rug was against one wall, in the front room the TV was on loudly with the cartoon channel, the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing, in the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table,
and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door.

He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes,
looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.

He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door.
As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor.  Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.

As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas,
reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled and asked how his day went.

He looked at her bewildered and asked, 'What happened here today?'

She again smiled and answered, 'You know every day when you come home
from work and you ask me what in the world do I do all day?

''Yes," was his incredulous reply.

She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it.'

all over Gilroy

Looking for a cord to charge the cell phone.
Left at 10 a.m. and made stops at  Radio Shack, A.T.T store
and finally Best Buy where we finally found a generic one
it works and we are back in business.
Didn't get back til 3 p.m.

Our neighbors have left and our side yard looks humungous.

Nice...it was a beautiful day.

Danxia landform in China...

This is a unique geological phenomenon known as Danxia landform. These phenomena can be observed in several places in China . This example is located in Zhangye, Province of Gansu . The color is the result of an accumulation for millions of years of red sandstone and other rocks.

freebies.....


 Early this morning Mary put the two old exercize bikes plus a few other things out at the curb.
I made 2 signs and Dad and I took them down and put them on the lamp posts on Meridian.
Within 2 hours or less EVERYTHING was gone!!!
Bless their hearts they even removed the signs for us.
The block sale on Bob's street wasn't exactly a success because the woman who organized the sale didn't put signs pointing down Bob's side of Golf Drive, consequently they missed all the business.
too bad.

reading...


Just finished Laura Bush's new book "Spoken from the Heart". She is a lovely, tender, talented, and compassionate person and a loyal loving wife. She is amazing in her ability to forgive her enemies.

I don't know how they endured the vicious vitriolic diatribe from Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid and still invited them to White House functions. Pelosi and Reid really did start the "Bash Bush"
movement with the Democrats and the press.

In the recent election years it has been proven that George Bush
was right to invade Iraq and get rid of Saddam Hussein. Saddam did have "yellow cakes"
a form of raw uraium which recently was sold to Canada.

Only history will recognize the greatness of this Presidential couple!!
