For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Time For Laughs.
Hi again everyone and welcome to some more laughs from jokes collected over the years. Hope you can get a smile or even a chuckle or two. So grab a cup of coffee or tea and have some fun!
My Job History
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned…couldn’t concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn’t hack it, so they gave me the ax.
After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn’t suited for it…mainly because it was a so-so job.
Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was too exhausting.
I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn’t cut it.
Then I tried to be a chef — figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn’t have the thyme.
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn’t cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn’t noteworthy.
I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn’t have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory – I tried but I just didn’t fit in.
I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn’t live on my net income.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
I got a job at a zoo feeding giraffes, but I was fired because I wasn’t up to it.
So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn’t fit for the job.
After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it.
My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
So, then I retired…and found out I was perfect for the job!
Well, I hope you found a chuckle or two in there, enjoy the remainder of your day and God bless!

Nature’s Art, #28.
Hi everyone on this beautiful spring like Saturday! It does feel like spring, I’m just hesitant to actually call it spring this early in the month. But who knows? Muffin did forecast an early spring for us.😸😀Though I’m not so sure about her forecasting ability. She is a good detective though, as you already know. And another exciting (I hope) story is on the way beginning Monday. We are all packed and ready to get on the plane and fly to our new destination! Where is that you ask? Sorry, you have to wait until Monday, no clues ahead of time! Muffin and I are better equipped this time around too, we are ready for anything…hopefully. It’s mainly cloudy and mild today, but I don’t think it will get as warm as what they forecast for us. Still very nice though and the snow is melting, so that is even nicer. Soon to be out there walking and taking pics again.
Until then, let’s look at these mushroom pics from last year…
Here is another of the tiny mushrooms we have here, the top is about 1cm, less than half an inch. I haven’t been able to identify it yet, but I think it’s in the Mycena family which includes a lot of varieties. Probably not good to eat.
This is a beautiful big mushroom to look at and photograph. This is Amanita Multisquamosa and is not good to eat. It may not kill you but could land you in the nearest hospital for a while. Best to stay with ones that are edible.
Well, there we have a couple more of the many dozens of mushrooms I have found just in the small area where I went walking down to the river last year. And I hope to get back there this spring and perhaps get some pics of earlier species of mushrooms. I hope you all have a most wonderful, relaxing weekend and God bless!
