I swear the skeeter truck just pushes the bugs to the back yard. We run for cover here too.  It's been hot and steamy outside here too. I'm happy my friends dropped off their old pump for my pool

They are saying we are going to get snow. That'll be different. And cold, which is more of the same, only worse they say.

 

I just wished my son a happy birthday. Quite a long time ago, as I was heading out the door to do a night shift, he asked me if I was going to wish him a happy birthday or not? Certainly I am I told him, on your birthday. "Mum, I am turning 14. But I am doing it on the 12th. That is today."  When I got into work, someone had written on the whiteboard at the nurses station. "CDNEH...Mother of the Year!" I have not so far managed to live it down. 😁

I dunno how in the heck he can be 43. Being only 29 myself and all...

 

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

Waiting for orders of Pre-Owned Toilet seats, get with it man.

 

What colors and sizes do you have?  And is it true you can catch a disease from a toilet seat?

Texas weather Many, weather elsewhere zero, this is understood man.

However, next week, it is to dip below freezing, unacceptable man.

A couple of those days, it will not rise ABOVE freezing, such an outrage man.

Texas weather Many, unreasonable weather elsewhere impermissible man.

NEVER below freezing here!  In fact into the 40's is unacceptable.  Makes the iguanas fall out of trees. 

 

(Has been mid to upper 80's this week)  A/C is running again.

If at first you don't succeed, then sky diving is not for you.

Someone stole my dictionary. Now I am at a loss for words.

If Apple made a car, would it have windows?

Ban shredded cheese. Make America Grate Again .

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.  Deport him and you never have to feed him again.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

If your pet has a bladder infection, urine trouble.

"Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow."

I fired myself from cleaning the house. I didn't like my attitude and I got caught drinking on the job.

My kid has A.D.D... and a couple of F's

Carrots improve your vision.  Alcohol doubles it.

A dung beetle walks into a bar and asks " Is this stool taken?"

Breaking news.  They're not making yardsticks any longer.

Hemorrhoids?  Shouldn't they be called Assteroids?

If life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic.

If you suck at playing the trumpet, that may be why.

Dogs can't take MRI's but Cat scan.
