DO YOU HAVE YOURS ON?????????
Ramblings of a Retired Mind . . .
I was thinking about how a status symbol of today is those cell phones that everyone has clipped onto their belt or purse. I can't afford one. So, I'm wearing my garage door opener.
I also made a cover for my hearing aid and now I have what they call blue teeth, I think.
You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realized that people didn't like me anyway.
I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans!
I was thinking about old age and decided that old age is 'when you still have something on the ball, but you are just too tired to bounce it.'
I thought about making a fitness movie for folks my age, and call it 'Pumping Rust'.
I've gotten that dreaded furniture disease. That's when your chest is falling into your drawers!
When people see a cat's litter box, they always say, 'Oh, have you got a cat?'
Just once I want to say, 'No, it's for company!'
Employment application blanks always ask who is to be notified in case of an emergency. I think you should write, 'A Good Doctor'!
I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older. Then, it dawned on me. They were cramming for their finals.
As for me, I'm just hoping God grades on the curve.
Enjoy Your Days; Love Your Life,
Because Life is a journey to be savored.
Some Interesting Thoughts:
Birds of a feather flock together . . . .and then Poop on your car.
A penny saved is a government oversight.
The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.
The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.
He who hesitates is probably right.
Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are XL.
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble..
Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words 'The' and 'IRS' together it spells 'Theirs...'
Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth, think of Algebra.
You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young. Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth . . .. . . . . AMEN

I do thing that dreaded furniture disease has hit here. Gravity does have a way of pulling it all down. Funny how many jokes there are about aging. I laugh at them, but truly it is no joke. But laughing is better than crying. Hope you have a fantastic Friday!
You always have some funny goodies and I usually begin my day with them.....thanks, I need it! Have a great weekend.
Ha ha that cartoon about the 4 food types sums up my skills in cooking!
Thanks for all the laughs. Have a great weekend!
Oh, these were so much fun- still laughing!
Saw it; liked it, told grandma; got it - my grandchildren's mantra.
I wish I had a grandma.
really cute post today, got a good laugh!
smiles, bee

i'm going to have to look up this "auntie acid" for sure ... she is too hilarious!! love it!! thanks, for the laughs. ( :
have a good weekend. rainy here.
I liked all of these....the best way to deal with getting older is with a sense of humor.
Haha! Oh my...thanks for getting me started with a laugh. :)
if i laid on the grass to look at the stars, who would get me up? and i use those same four food groups or at least i used to....
ALLLL are too funny!
love the one liners - the mini cooper utube was awesome - do they really vary that much in the horn honks?? You're going out with a bang this week Sandie!!
bob and i just watched the show by the mini coopers. he said to tell you one of those cars is on our wish list, now we might just have to buy one. we love those cars and the video was so much fun.
Oh, I hope God grades on the curve! So many good ones here. The IRS (theirs) was a funny eye opener. Hope you have a great weekend. Thanks for starting mine out on a happy note. See you Monday!
I stole the Ramblings of a Retired Mind. I gave you credit of course and it will post next Thursday.
Love the Mini video. That was awesome.
The laugh is so me.
The lift is spot on.
Have a fabulous day honey. Big hugs. ☺
LOL Great choices. I love the funnies for today.
XO,
Sheila
Fun, fun, fun and funny, funny, funny. Thanks, Sandie. Hope you have a FUN FRIDAY! Susan
several good laughs throughout. :)
I agree with "Ma"...laughing is better than crying. SIGH.
Especially liked:
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.
Also smiled at the “Saw it …….. Grandma got it!” So true!!
I am loving the laugh and lift more and more.
Thanks.
Too many funnies to pick just one or two! Happy Chuckles To You this Friday!
Thank you for another very honorable mention!
What fun!
I can't pick a favorite - I enjoyed it all. However, the secretly evil part of me liked Erica's *payback* - people are indeed so very rude with their phones, aren't they??
Have a great weekend! XO
As always, you've made me laugh again. There wasn't a bad one in the bunch. Loved the mini video!!
Fridays make me laugh! Love the cell phone joke!
hugs,
Linda
Thanks for the smile! Happy Friday to you!!!
I can relate to that hand over the mouth thing!
Hi Sandy ~~ Nice Friday post today. You were doing a lot of thinking, blog said that. I hope it didn't hurt your head!!!! XD
The Aunties were good too. I can identify big time with her rolling out of bed. Broken knee-caps and replacement knee joints really don't help getting up off the floor. Best slide to a door and pull up with help of the door knob.
..
Hi Sandy .. would love to see the Pumping Rust video! Now the guy with the mobile phone prompt - that's great .. oh they are so irritating aren't they ...
Have a great weekend with the family .. cheers Hilary
Very nice today. Did you write those two top segments? If so, snaps to you girlfriend! I didn't see any credits to someone else, so I do think those were your own jokes/puns/cleaver thinkings. yes?
I loved the Lift AGAIN, thank you!!!
Auntie Acid is too funny!
What a great way to start the weekend! Off with a smile is always the best :) I can so relate to many of these. If they weren't so funny, they'd just be sad lol.
Oh how I love your Friday posts, Sandie... I laughed at the 'chest falling into the drawers' one... That is me... My boobs (since I lost weight) are horribly saggy.... Not a pretty sight!!!! ha
And --I laughed at the one that said, You know you are old when everything either dries up or leaks... FUNNY!!!
The train cellphone story is hilarious....
Thanks, Sandie.
Hugs,
Betsy
Hello Sandie!! Fabulous Friday Funnies and words of wisdom!!
Wowed!!! You crammed in a lot of good stuff today!! Like the cell phone story.
One day as I was driving home, all the birds on the left side of the road decided to fly over my car and poop en masse. Sounded like rain, and my car was left "in mess!!"
Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth . . . . . . . . AMEN. And AMEN, again! I've actually been praying something VERY SIMILAR.
Always enjoy your posts. This one was especially good, had such great stuff in it. Can you imagine how much sweeter, how much better this world would be if people would think..before opening their mouths? Hugs and love too.
I'm glad Friday is finally here. Have a happy weekend!
xo Catherine
Always full of smiles and chuckles! Love the mini coopers! I'm going to swipe a couple of those cartoons! :)
Tons of laughs today. I read all those cute little one-liners out loud to the family so we all had some great laughs.
I've been wanting a Mini, now I have a better reason for getting it, I would finally be able to make music.
Fun statements and so true about aging too.
I like the four food groups. They may not be good for us, but sure seem easy.
It is nice to watch the moon and the stars, instead of trying to reach for them. In India on Saturday nights, we used to put cots in our backyard and lay on them and look at the stars and the moon until almost midnight when our parents would calls us in as Bats would start coming out for our fruits on the trees.
Thanks for the chuckles Sandie! Have a great weekend:@)
Love the car orchestra! I hope you have a great weekend, Sandie!
Love the bad day quote.
Lots of funny today! I also love Aunty Acid, she is so funny.
I love the one about asking God to keep his hand over your mouth!!!! Sometimes, things just come out and I wish they wouldn't!...:)JP
I love getting older and have never lied about my age........I am 50 and love being 50.......that said this post really brightened my morning thank you for that
You have given me something to look forward to my old age, some of what you say is very true .
My grandmother moved in with us when I was about 5 she was 70 and lived till 95, she was my favourite person and I enjoyed her company very much but she did get a kick out of people dying she always said well I outlasted that one.
Merle......
And you know you're old when your birth certificate is on a scroll
So many good things in this group, can not pick one I like best.
love them all today ! thanks for another fun friday !
Happy Friday and wishing you a wonderful weekend

Like you and Aunty Acid. You two tell it like it is.
Loved the Mini car's symphony! Lots of great jokes today especially the cell phone one!
My gosh, I laughed so hard at that first one about wearing the garage door opener that I almost could not see to read the rest.
But I did! :)
Happy weekend to you, too!
Happy Weekend to you too Sandie! Thanks for the smiles and the concert....and coming by to visit me. =)
Thanks again for a great wind up...I love that last quote...if I had a nickle for everyone that assumes one bad day equals a bad life...we could go on vacation somewhere really good!
Oh, I love that last quote! Perfect.
Lord, Keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth . . .. . . . . AMEN
