It's a beautiful day today. The sun is shining. The lake is wonderfully still. I thought I'd quickly write my blog while I'm waiting for the water to boil for the crayfish. Yup! I'm still catching the little rascals. The lid is securely on their bucket so they can't get out to wander the kitchen before they meet their ultimate fate. While I'm waiting for the water to boil, I thought I'd share the following "funny" that one of my friends sent me. What with all the wedding plans parading endlessly through my mind night and day, I've been experiencing quite a few Senior Moments.

Senior Moment

Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades. Over the years they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures. Lately, their activities had been limited to meeting few times a week to play cards.

One day they were playing cards when one looked at the other and said, "Now don't get mad at me..... I know we've been friends for a long time.....but I just can't think of your name. I've thought and thought, but I can't remember it. Please tell me what your name is."

Her friend glared at her. For at least three minutes she just stared and glared at her.

Finally she said, "How soon do you need to know?"

Cliche of the Day

No Flies On Me. I'm alert; I'm functioning vigorously; I'm taking advantage of my opportunities. It is a farmer's image, deriving from the fact that flies settle more on a standing horse or cow than on one that is moving briskly. The Detroit Free Press offered a definition in 1888: "There ain't no flies on him, signifies, that he is not quiet long enough for moss to grow on his heels, that he is wide awake." Even earlier there was the expression, "don't let flies stick to your heels," which appeared in an 1836 British publication.
