Fun Friday with a little help from my friends...

TGIF!












Thank you Debby at Just Breathe For all those Jokes...



(DISCO)




Driving Reaction Test For Old People.
 
I know all of you are very good drivers, so here is a fun test to see how good your reflex is!

The automobile driving manual says the average driver's reaction time
is
.75 seconds or 1 car length for every 10 mph.
         
Test your average reaction time. Be careful, this can b
e addictive!  You will be surprised at how slow you really are.
   
JUST CLICK ON THE DART WHEN THE SHEEP STARTS TO RUN...          THERE ARE 5 SHEEP
Click here:  ReactionTest
 Thanks Sharon.

 
Thank you Kelly.






Something to think about:


Have you ever had to let go to gain?  I sure have.






Love, Chatty

I'm mostly known as 'MA' said...

Lots of smiles in your post today. I chuckled over Disco singing the song of his people. I do love Maxine and she says it all so well. I only wish I could comeback with some of her sayings. Hope your Friday is fantastic!

Hey I actually laughed out loud at "sexy driver"...and I did the sheep test and it told me I was slow as an amadiller,and for me to go get a cup of coffee,so guess I'll be back,gotta go pour a cup.
Thanks for the laughs my friend.

Debbie said...

I am rated sluggish snail.
This will not be news to my husband.

I give up food all the time, and apparently, I gain that way. Ha!
Seriously, I have given up things and gained peace, mainly.

Sharon said...

I had a good laugh with you. And then, I was really *stopped* by that last thought and question. Have I ever had to let go of something in order to gain? Yes. I am struck by the thought that I know letting go of my old *home* has some very important purpose. I'm not sure yet what that is, but the *gain* has so far been an unmistakable assurance that God is with me.

Thanks, Sandie - I needed the reminder.

Paula said...

I like the ICU clothes and the snowflake cartoon is us here in south Texas when we chance to see one.

Ginny Hartzler said...

O.K. I CANNOT ace the stupid reaction time test!!! LOVE the caption on Disco's picture!!! He needs his own blog!

Blondee said...

I second the Disco needs his own blog suggestion.

Very funny stuff, as usual. I logged in just to read this today as I'm in a terrible mood. Thank you for cheering me up!

Great post, Sandie, and I love your Feb. LOVE colors.... (I have the same theme on my blog.)
