Saturday's some thing to think about . . . . and Seaworld conitinued.

There was an opportunity (lol) for my grandson to spend $15 dollars for a cute diver girl to dive down and get him a clam that has in a pearl in it - guaranteed. So of course wanting to get rich (?) he wanted to do it - so off the girl went.



This was his clam that she retrieved for him. She had told him the uglier the clam the bigger the pearl.



Another woman opened it and low and behold it did have a pretty good size pearl in it - but I don't think $15 dollars worth - but it was worth it for him. He loved it.



These are silly banz my grandson wears. She liked those - guess she was tired of the pearls.



Okay I think this is funny - and man I sure think it would be fun to do to some people - see Chatty's an honest gal - I'm not always good. Have you ever felt this way yourself Especially when you first wake up! LOL


(Thank you Jerry).

And this was sent to my by my daughter - thank you sweetie. Music by Kenny Loggins. This is so much fun!



Okay so I am wasting time today -

“The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.”
—Bertrand Russell (1872-1970); Philosopher, Mathematician

Some times though you can learn from wasting time.

“Learn everything you can, anytime you can, from anyone you can - there will always come a time when you will be grateful you did.”

—Sarah Caldwell (1924 – 2006); opera conductor, impresario, stage director of opera


If I knew how to change the one word I would - to dumb ideas. Sorry, it is just so funny.

Take some time today to have some fun and do something for yourself - even if it is just for ten minutes. Cut loose!

Love,
Sandie

That dance video's got me goooooing ... funny, isn't it, how Fred Astaire's steps seem to fit?

Still in love with your Andy's smile!

Have yourself a great day!

G'day sweet friend ~ Love the dancing, LUV!! the cartoon ... wish I'd had that about 2 weeks ago to share with someone, chuckle!

How precious is Andy & the joy in his purchase. Fun to you all ...

We finally finished both house constructions & took off for 2 weeks. I apologize, but will be better now.

Oh Sweetie...
What a beautiful share today, dancing and music and comedy. Oh my gosh, I feel as though I have been to Las Vegas, and I have never left my seat. Imagine that. Did you know you could do that to someone?

I love the way that you let sweet Andy pay $15.00 for the pretty girl to go and get him a clam for his pearl. Now that is so darn cute. I love it, his face alone was worth that don't you think?

Now I have to tell you thanks for the explanation, as I have been wondering why some of my ideas were "shitty" of late. Oh how I love this one. Girl you will have me chuckling all day.

Hope you are well sweet friend. Thanks again for the beautiful share. I just love it.

Many hugs and so much love, Sherry

Getting that oyster with a pearl is such a unique experience, he will never forget it. The dancing video is amazing, they have everyone, even Austin Powers!! AND I'm not missing the irony of this post cutting loose in more than one way! You ARE a bad girl today!! Cut loose!!!

I liked all of GS's bandz; I heard some schools were outlawing them because of all the ruckus they caused; they look like good clean fun to me!

too cute about wanting to use his money for the pearl diver; I remember that at the Sea World here too :)

That was fun. I'm enjoying your trip and your time-wasters. (I agree with the quote about it not being wasted time if you're enjoying it.)
