For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Steve And Muffin’s Monday Smiles. #11
Hi everyone and Happy Monday to you all! It’s time for another morning of smiles and chuckles for you to enjoy. So, let’s get started…
==========
A lady lost her handbag. It was found by an honest little boy who returned it to her.
Looking in her purse, she commented, “That’s funny. When I lost my bag there was a $20 bill in it. Now there are twenty $1 bills.”
The boy quickly replied, “Yes. The last time I found a lady’s purse, she didn’t have any change for a reward.”
==========
Nothing messes up your Friday like realizing it’s only Tuesday.
===========
One day an employee came into work with both of his ears bandaged. His boss asked him what happened to his ears.
“Yesterday I was ironing a shirt when the phone rang and I accidentally answered the iron instead of the phone!”
“Well,” the boss said, “that explains one ear, but what about the other?”
“They called back.”
============
It’s that time of year when I get to pretend the 5-pound bag of candy I’m buying is for trick-or-treaters.
========
Give some people an inch and they think they’re rulers.
==========
Dorothy, the little daughter of a tire salesman, had seen triplets for the first time.
“Oh mother,” she cried out upon returning home, “what do you think I saw today?”
“I can’t imagine, dear, what?”
“A lady had twins, and a spare!”
===========
Remember when we had to smack the TV because the channel wasn’t coming in clearly? I feel that way about far too many people.
============
Have a chuckling Monday and God bless!
Steve and Muffin.

Well, it’s like this, after writing today’s chapter it was so nice out that I got an energy burst and I decided it was a good time to put on the extra “arm” to the feeder pole so I could hang another feeder out there, so I did that. Then I put up a hanger thingy so I could hang another suet feeder out because one is just not enough. By then it was 4:30 and time to stick around to talk with Chester. He came so close today. But, a red-breasted nuthatch landed on my hand anyway which was fantastic! Then I cleaned up all by stuff and brought in the feeders. Then I had to wash dishes because I was too sore last night and there was lots of dishes. And by the time I finished my energy burst was bust and I had no energy for making supper.đłđđ

I think I might have to make a schedule for myself, that usually helps me until I get into a new habit of doing things. I have several exercises and stretches I am supposed to be doing each day and they don’t have to be done all at once, so I can split them up a bit, plus the enjoyables of housecleaning, etc. My doctor said even just standing up for a while watching the birds is good.
