..another one from Dee Yellin:

I WENT TO A BOOKSTORE AND ASKED THE SALESWOMAN, "WHERE'S THE SELF- HELP SECTION?" SHE SAID IF SHE TOLD ME, IT WOULD DEFEAT THE PURPOSE.

 

Yesterday Dude and I took a ride over to Brian's.

 

Jen was off to Fort Vannoy Farm with her Practically Perfect Children's Parties booth..    http://www.practicallyperfectchildrensparties.com/ , Brian was helping his neighbor, Ken, build some shelves in his garage, and Tucker and Sami were cleaning their golf clubs. Dude sniffed his way around the backyard....

and the kids practiced their golf swings...

We didn't stay long, as they were heading to the golf course to play for a bit...

Babbling Day

When : Always October 21st Blatherskites, mark this day on your calendar. For today is Babbling Day. This isn't a day to remain silent. Tell everyone you know about this special day. What's all the chatter about over this special day? Well, on Babbling Day, we celebrate those of us with a glib tongue. You know them when you hear them. They're talking gibberish. They never stop talking. They babble on and on. They can turn a simple one sentence statement into an endless dissertation. Spend this day babbling like a baby, if you must. As for me, I will spend it by a babbling brook. BTW: In case you didn't know, a "Blatherskite " is a person who babbles.
