Why There Will Always be Lawyers…
At work we’ve been working on our quarterly newsletter and this is a clip that was included. I personally thought it was funny, some I’ve shared it with say they’ve heard it before but I hadn’t. I liked it so I thought I’d share with you guys.

Can we say, “Here’s your sign.”
So this week has been an interesting one and we are just at Wednesday…
My Monday morning started off I was running fairly on time for work, ran downstairs, wrote out my car payment (I still mail it b/c if I pay it on-line they won’t let me pay extra), grabbed my car keys, put a stamp on the envelope, ran over to the kitchen, grabbed a couple cookies (breakfast of champions), put my car keys on my finger (the ring around my finger), grabbed my purse, grabbed my house key, grabbed my cell phone and checkbook I left laying on the kitchen table, ran out the door, threw all that into the car and thought, now where are my car keys. Looked around, didn’t find them so I grabbed my house key ran back up stairs couldn’t find them in the kitchen or dining room so I grabbed the spare thinking I threw my keys back in my purse but didn’t want to take the chance, ran back to my car and wondered what was on my finger. Yeah I’m sure you already saw this happening as I was blabbering. Found my car keys on my index finger where I put them originally… So I proceeded to pull out the driveway and called PC to tell him he’d left his door badge at my house but that I had it so when I jumped out to put my car payment in the mail I was preoccupied so I got back in the car, partial way down the road and couldn’t remember if I put the flag up. Called my grandma who lives down the road and asked her too on her way to town. She told me later that night I hadn’t put the flag up. Whew, glad I thought about that! This was all before 8am and I’m not a Morning person to the 10th degree :). My co-workers joke and say I don’t fully wake up until around 10am. I think I somewhat agree with them!!
Monday I was given an award from Kathryn on my blog! Yey! But then when I came in first thing Tuesday, I’d lost a follower. Oh well… I’m still not sure who it was. There is another blog I follow Just call me Jo… that had the same issue. She lost a blog follower. I’m thinking it might have been a conspiracy :)… or not.
Today I got my first hate comments on my blog. Who knows… I guess you can’t please them all. I’ve never tried. I just write b/c it’s what I’m feeling or seeing or thinking or whatever.
So people do Wordless Wednesdays but as you can see, I’m not one of them so let’s see, I think I’ll still share a photo or 2… now which photo do I want to share…. I think I’ll share the latest shots of our MIL Room. We aren’t quite finished, when we get completely finished I’ll show before and after shots 🙂 Oh and we call it the MIL (Mother-in-Law) room because when my parents were building their house my dad always called the spare room his mother-in-laws room so to me that’s what they’re called :). I started it and PC picked up on it 🙂
Peace, Love & randomness,
Hah! The MIL room. That's funny! We're dying for a place with more room. Ideally a house where we could finish the basement and create “Man Land” – ie: he can get all his dude junk outta my pretty living room! 🙂
Thanks for your comment on my blog. You have a new follower too!
Can I be your MIL. I like that room.
Don't worry you'll never please every one but you make me happy. Isn't that all that counts (the nice people who like you).
yeah…that's tough losing a follower…I've had that happen, too, a few times. I took it especially hard the one time, since it was someone that often commented…and when I all of a sudden couldn't access her blog anymore, I thought I'd done something to insult her. Turned out she was in the middle of changing her blog domain, and ended up 'coming back to me' after a month or so 🙂
As long as you write for yourself, don't worry about the world at large. Everyone has their own reasons for following, and you certainly can't please everyone!
LOVE the room!
So sorry you lost a follower…but apparently today I do not follow ANY blogs…not sure what happened, but I lost ALL my reading list on blogger…WTH?!?
Keep it up, don't worry what others think, I have loved getting to know you and watch your blog grow.
Dancy – Man room, aren't those also known as garages 🙂
CCC – You're right, it is about the nice people who like me! Thank you! And we are calling the MIL room Cowboy Chic 🙂
Tezzie – Thanks! Yeah it does suck to lose a follower… but the sad thing is I can't figure out who it was…
belle5 – I lose my reading list from time to time… I run with Firefox and if I go into Internet Explorer it's back… I think sometimes it's the internet 🙂
Happy Thursday dear! Don't worry you can't please them all 🙂
Thank you Teenage Bride!!
I haven't commented in awhile…I honestly haven't had time to read blogs =( boo me. BUT, I just wanted to let you know I'm still here and reading away =)
PS. I just noticed on your profile that you're 26, a Leo and a Boar….ME TOO!! My b-day is Aug. 2nd =) when is yours?
Wow I love that room!! I'm sorry about your first hate comment! I haven't gotten one yet. I've gotten a few people who don't necessarily agree with me, but they haven't seemed hateful. I'm not looking forward to my first one. I know it's gotta be coming. You can't please everybody.
Also – I looked for your email to reply to your comment on my page! But the girl in my header is from http://www.istockphoto.com so you can go there & check out what they have if you're interested! My blog was professionally designed because I am just not that talented or creative, but I bought the photo from the website & she changed some stuff on it & made it what it is now & then incorporated it into my design! But that's where everybody gets those pictures! istockphoto!
Mrs. Mullen – My birthday is July 30… it's getting close. One year closer to 30… ack! Our birthday's are very close!
Cameron – Yeah my email isn't there b/c I haven't played around with it enough to put it there 🙂 As I find time I figure these things out… trial and error! And I love the header girl (for lack of better word :))
Hey Nicole! You were wondering about how we all get our pics onto the Communal Global site, even though we're from all around the world and we don't know each other… I figured I'd stop by here to answer your question on behalf of our group 🙂
There's no huge trick involved…each week…or day…or whenever we get a chance, we upload our shots into a site called Photobucket, a photo sharing place. We upload to the same account, but into our own folders…and label the pictures with the date it's to be published. Then the super awesome Lola goes in each day, picks out the photos to be published, and links them to the Communal Global site!
Hope that answered your question, and didn't just end up confusing the heck out of you ;D
Take care…and thanks for all the visits and kind comments over at 'my place'! <3
