Muffin’s Fun! #81
Hi, hi and meow everyone!😺 I back again with another fun funny funnies time to start your week with fun funnies to make you laugh! Me hope. That if my human pick good funnies today. Sometimes I let him pick funnies. Sometimes that terrible mistake. He not always good at picking the funniest funnies even though he sort of kind of funny kind of sort of human. I tell him if it make him laugh then we know that joke is no good. He have weird sort of sense of humor. Strange things make him laugh. And when he start to laugh he laugh long time. It amazing. Some of his friends hate it when he laugh so much, so I tell him he should stop laughing and walk around dragging chin on floor and that would make other people laugh so then he could laugh too.😹 He not like my idea.🙀 Oh well. But sometimes he pick good funnies, so we find out today…

Pregnant with my third child, I was stricken with a bout of morning sickness and lay down on the living-room couch to rest. Just then one of the workmen who was doing repairs in my house walked by and gave me a curious look.
“Taking a little break,” I explained. “I’m in my first trimester.”
“Really?” he said. “What’s your major?”
======
When people say, “Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too.” What good is a cake you can’t eat it? What, should I eat someone else’s cake instead??
======
Years ago I had just delivered twins. They were a boy and a girl. The head nurse brought them out for my husband to see. He could hardly believe his good fortune. The girl baby had a pink blanket wrapped around her and the boy baby was enclosed in a blue blanket.
He took one step forward just so he could touch the babies and believe they had finally arrived. As he started to touch them, the nurse took a step backwards and said, “You can’t touch those babies. You aren’t sterile!!”
With out missing a beat, my husband retorted “Obviously, I’m not sterile!”

TELEMARKETER HANG-UP STRATEGY
A telemarketer calls, “I would like to speak with Max, please.”
The homeowner reluctantly replies, “I suppose that would be possible, but it seems rather strange.”
The telemarketer responds, “Why would that be?”
The homeowner answers, “This is the first time we’ve ever had a call for the dog.”

The easiest way to figure the cost of living is to take your income and add twenty percent.

That all for today! Have nice Monday!

I am soooo…. happy to hear you were able to find a doctor! Just in the nick of time ⏲️ 😬
What kind of changes to your diet?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yep, went right down to the last day of my pills!
Have to be more diligent at staying with my diet I had, plus cut out more food that I had been eating but now shouldn’t, like chicken. Might have to cut out cereal too, though there are still 2 brands I can eat but I have to order them from Amazon and they are more expensive. Speaking of expensive, my rent is going up 25% Sept 1. I was expecting 10%, so that was a bit shocking.

Yikes!!😬😬 That’s quite a jump!! Do you get a cola from the gvmnt?

It is a big jump, but market rent for something like this has gone up considerably so I have to pay more. That takes care of my increase in my pension, plus a bit more. And I will be paying more for hydro as well.

I just get it from across the hall instead! I call that guy the weed whacker and does he get smoking at times and it comes in here giving me a headache. At least now I can have windows open all the time which helps. I’m going to get an air purifier to use the other 10 months. By the way, good morning!

Good Morning! They have now legalized it here in MN also now. The neighboor next door lights up at about 7:30 to 8 am and it’s constant all day long. I can’t hardly stand to be in my garage anymore🤮

My neighbor usually starts about 6pm and goes to around 1am. He used to have a friend that joined him too, but his friend died a few days ago. There is a lot of empty apartments in here right now, odd. But they are spending a lot of time fixing them up before renting them again.🤔

😂😂 Oh good! I thought it was one out west! Whew!! One good thing about the rain is the lake here is just about back to what it was a few years ago. Which is nice because now I can float over the weeds instead of grinding through them with the prop.

Our lake and river are both above normal this year, by quite a bit. We don’t get many days when it doesn’t rain. But the high water covers rocks that normally show above water, so boaters have to be extra careful.

Well, she is kinda alright, but she isn’t expected to live much longer. After losing my two brothers last year, this has hit me kind of hard. She is my last remaining sibling.
Well, must head off to bed and try for some normal sleep. Talk again tomorrow!
