green - nice color but

I'm thinking green is a nice color but I don't want it to be the color of the water in my pool! Today I am going to the "pool store" and get more shock and clarifier- there goes the green in my wallet....

omelet - how they should look

My mother-in-law and her friend came to visit last week. One of days while they were here. We had an extremely busy day. I had bought pork chops to grill outside for that night, my husband's speciality and favorite food. Because he had to work overtime and we had gotten back home later than expected, I decided to make omelets for dinner instead. This was something I could cook fairly well sooooo..... I had put all my ingrediances in the pan - it started to burn (oh no). So I tried to flip it.... what a disaster! The omelet broke into a hundred pieces and was burning. I forgot to spray the pan first :( I had three more omelets to make using the pan that still had burnt omelet from the time before. I also didn't realize I was using a frying pan instead of the omelet pan. So much for trying to impress my mother-in-law!

Which one is Fluffy?

My Jesus, My Savior ......

My Jesus, My Savior Lord there is none like You
All of my days, I want to praise The wonders of Your mighty love
My Comfort, My Shelter Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath, all that I am Never cease to worship You
(Chorus)
Shout to the Lord, all the earth Let us sing.
Power and majesty, praise to the King.
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar At the sound of Your name
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love you, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in YOU!
(Chorus)
My Jesus, My Savior Lord there is none like You
All of my days, I want to praise The wonders of Your mighty love
My Comfort, My Shelter Tower of refuge and strength
Let every breath, all that I am Never cease to worship You
(Chorus)
Shout to the Lord, all the earth Let us sing.
Power and majesty, praise to the King.
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar At the sound of Your name
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love you, forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in YOU!
(Bridge)
Let the earth sing i declare your great name
All of my life I will with all of my breath I will praise you lift it up, life it up
(Chorus)
Nothing compares to you
I shout your praise
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares to the promise I have in YOU!

Did anyone watch American Idol Wednesday and then again on Thursday? They sang this song incorrectly as MY Sheppard, My Savior. On Thursday they sang the correct version as My Jesus, My Savior. I don't know why. Anyone out there have a clue?

It's fun being retired

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting. Well, for example, the other day I went downtown and went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 minutes and when I came out there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I went up to him and said, "Come on, man, how about giving a retired person a break"?
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a "Pussy." He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires. So I asked him directions to the nearest doughnut shop. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.
Personally, I didn't care. I came downtown on the bus. The car that he was putting the tickets on had a bumper sticker that said "OBAMA 2008." I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. It's important to my health.

Life is Good!

Today we celebrated again. The kids swam in the pool. We BBQ'ed chicken and had birthday cookie cake. Today.... Life is Good!

Solving the pigeon problem

Subject: Solving pigeon problem

The mayor of the City Palmdale , CA was very worried about a plague of pigeons in Palmdale. He could not remove the pigeons from the city. All of Palmdale was full of pigeon poop, the people of Palmdale could not walk on the sidewalks, or drive on the roads. It was costing a fortune to keep the streets and sidewalks clean. One day a man came to City Hall and offered the Mayor a proposition. 'I can rid your beautiful city of its plague of pigeons without any cost to the city. But, you must promise not to ask me any questions. Or, you can pay me one million dollars to ask one question.'

The mayor considered the offer briefly and accepted the free proposition. The next day the man climbed to the top of City Hall, opened his coat, and released a blue pigeon. The blue pigeon circled in the air and flew up into the bright blue California sky. All the pigeons in Palmdale saw the blue pigeon and gathered up in the air behind the blue pigeon. The Palmdale pigeons followed the blue pigeon as she flew southward out of the city.

The next day the blue pigeon returned completely alone to the man atop City Hall. The Mayor was very impressed. He felt the man and the blue pigeon had performed a wonderful miraculous feat to rid Palmdale of the plague of pigeons. Even though the man with the pigeon had charged nothing, the mayor presented him with a check for 1 million dollars and told the man that, indeed, he did have a question to ask and even though they had agreed to no fee and the man had rid the city of pigeons, he decided to pay the 1 million just to get to ask ONE question. The man accepted the money and told the mayor to ask his ONE question.

Do you think the Mayor is going to ask how the blue pigeon led all the pigeons away?

Do you think the Mayor is going to ask where all the pigeons went?

Do you think he is going to ask where the man got the blue pigeon?

Nooooooo!

Write to me in the comment section and I'll tell you the answer - hehehehe
