This and that.

Good news ~~ Peter is safely home, he rang me earlier tonight.

I always like to know that my loved ones get home safely.after they visit.

me. I would have rung Peter if he had not rung me.

Now things will get back to normal for both him and me.

One good thing about blogging, we can see how things are going

with relatives and friends. Had to include a joke!!

CURTAINS A blonde enters a store that sells curtains. She tells the salesman, "I would like to buy a pair of pink curtains." The salesman assures her that they have a large selection of pink curtains. He shows her several patterns, but the blonde seems to be having a hard time choosing. Finally she selects a lovely pink floral print. The salesman then asks what size curtains she needs. The blonde promptly replies, "Fifteen inches." "Fifteen inches???" asked the salesman. "That sounds very small - what room are they for?" The blonde tells him that they aren't for a room, they are for her computer monitor. The surprised salesman replies, "But Miss, computers do not need curtains!" The blonde says, "Hellllooooooooo. I've got Windoooooows!"

Some Irish Sayings...............

Your house is your castle

Beware of the anger of a patient man.

A light heart lives the longest.

A true friend’s eye is a good mirror.

Many a time a man’s mouth broke his nose.

Laziness is a heavy burden.

It isn’t a trick until it is done three times.

You don’t know a person until you live with them.

Health’s doctor is sleep.

He who is not strong must needs be cunning,

A debt is still unpaid, even if forgotten.

An awkward colt often becomes a beautiful horse.

The north wind’s heat or the cold of the south wind,

means rain.

There are two versions or two sides to every story and

at least twelve versions of every song.

Have a nice weekend coming up folks. Cheers.

I know you were glad to get the news of Peter's safe return home. Liked the sayings, especially the one about a man's mouth breaking his nose. Reminds me of an old warning I heard that's along the same lines - "Don't let your alligator mouth overload your canary rear end". It is good to have a bit of time to get back to blogging and commenting. ec
