Muffin’s Daily Fun! #110
Hi, hi to all of you out there in blogging land! I back finally. My human and me have been so busy today that I forgot all about my funny post! But I here now and I have two funnies for you to end the week. Here we go…
“I think the lady at the airline counter just threatened me.
She looked me dead in the eye and said, “Window or aisle?”
I laughed and replied, “Window or you’ll what?”
=========
I made a huge to-do list for today. Just not sure who’s gonna do it.
=========
On a wintry day, my 90-year-old father was in the supermarket trying to pay for his groceries. Bundled up against the cold, his gloved hands were having trouble retrieving and counting the exact change.
The transaction evidently took too long for the man behind him in line, who muttered a curse.
Dad stopped counting, turned around, and warned, “Be quiet or I’ll write a check.”
=========
Oops, that three of them, you get bonus today! I hope you have nice weekend and I have more fun funnies on Monday!
Muffin.

From The Heights. #14
Good morning everyone on this cool, rainy Thursday! This is certainly a real, typical fall day here in the north. There is even the possibility of snow flurries coming our way over the next couple of days. But I doubt that will actually happen. It would not be unheard of though.
On October 9, 2018 we had a foot of snow arrive and it stayed with us until the end of April, 2019. We had a lot of snow that winter, and a lot of cold weather too. That was nearly 7 months with snow on the ground. That is too much, even for a northerner like me. I am not exactly complaining, just telling a fact. It is not fun having such a long winter.
Looking at islands on the lake, Monday morning, Oct 2.
Further north it can be much worse. I know one of my readers lives further north. But, we do put up with it because that is where we live. And winter is coming fast. Here I am talking about winter, I must be crazy. Back to fall and the beauty of the season. It has been a remarkable fall so far, certainly nothing to complain about. And it is good to get the rain as well.
More moisture in the ground can be good for spring, especially if it happens to be a dry spring. But, we get what we get and we should be happy with it. Complaining does not do any good, except to make us more miserable. Sometimes I think that complaining is our national pastime though. Everywhere a person goes it is possible to hear someone complain about something.
Moving a little further to the left of the above photo.
Usually the weather tops the list. Although lately high prices might actually top the list. Every time I go shopping, which is once a week, something has gone up in price. Usually by quite a bit. Oh well. Like the weather, we cannot really do much about it. My feet are bothering me a lot today for some reason. Not sure why.
And again a little further to the left, more islands in the distance.
They seem to be a bit swollen too, not seriously though. Not getting enough exercise lately I guess. And I do not like walking in the rain when it is cold. And windy. Very windy. Oh well. Perhaps tomorrow. Hmm, time for more coffee. I hope you all have a wonderful day and God bless!
