If you’ve never seen Ricky Gervais’ monologue at the Oscars, you’re missing comedy genius. Here’s a quick 10-minute collection of some of Ricky Gervais at his best. Enjoy!
Happy Friday! I hope all of you have some great plans set up for the weekend.
Until next time…

Wow, folks! Can you believe it is Friday already? I am having a hard time keeping up with the passage of time. I know this is a trite thing to say, but the older I get, the faster time moves along. Perhaps it is because I am slower? HA! Who knows.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the funny animal videos I found below. Have a great weekend!

All, my sister introduced this guy to me a few years back. He is quite funny, but his humor is a little different. For some, he might not be funny at all. I wanted to do something different today, and was prompted to share this guy with you, because an email arrived today about another one of this new comics. I think he’s terrific, but I’ll let you be the judge.
Here’s a link to his site: https://theoatmeal.com/
I wanted to change it up a bit this Friday, the first Friday of December. I hope you guys find him as funny as I do.
Until next time…

Thank you, readers!
I just hit the 1200 follower goal for 2021. Man, what a day! Next year we’ll be seeking out 1,500. Thanks so much for the interaction, for those that commented, chatted back and forth, and enjoyed some of my content. I am so happy!!!
I’m still looking for some ways to share my passion of gaming, but will figure that out before the end of the year. Now that I’m back in the gym, I’m also going to bring back my exercise routine for 2021.
Thanks again, all of you who follow Daily Ramblings. I really appreciate it!
Until next time…

Posted in Thankful Thursdays
As each of you know, I write about something each Thursday I am grateful for. This is an easy exercise, because I write down all the things I’m grateful for in my Gratitude Journal each day. It is a terrific exercise, because it focuses me on the good in life, rather than the bad. A quick flip of the switch and I am in a better mood for the whole day. The real trick, however, is capturing what I am grateful for during the day and writing these down before bed.
It is nice waking up and thinking about the things I’m grateful for, and I sleep so much better, when I realize how blessed my life has been. If you have never tried gratitude journaling, give it a whirl. I developed the habit using The 5-Minute Journal. After using it for a bit, I decided to add this to my Onenote app. I use Onenote for all of my journals. It’s nice to have everything in one place, and have access to it everywhere, since Onenote is a cloud-based app.
Give this a whirl. Start small. Maybe you only write down one thing you are grateful for starting out. I stick with three. Sometimes I have more, though. It’s your journal. Make it what you wish.
I hope all of you have a terrific Thursday, and have something to be grateful for when you go to bed. I always do. You just have to look around a little bit.
Until next time…

Well, folks, here we are again. It’s Friday. I hope you have some wonderful plans for the weekend, and get the relaxation and rest you deserve, after a hard week. Below is yet another funny video of fails at work. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do watching and sharing them. I like providing these, particularly to those readers in my readership that had a particularly challenging week. Enjoy!
Have a great weekend, folks!
Until next time…

If you’ve never seen the FailArmy videos on YouTube, you are in for a treat. I watch these when I need a laugh. They never fail (no pun intended) to work.
I hope you have a great weekend, folks! I’ll see you again on Monday!
In the meantime, have a great weekend, and enjoy these funnies.
Until next time…

My sister has been “over-focused” on work for as long as I have known her. There is nothing wrong with that, provided you take time to do other things to balance it out. Balance is key to a happy life, in my opinion, so that you can do your work, have some fun, and not miss anything important. Important things like regular checkups for you and your pets, paying your bills, exercising, learning something new, and enjoying something that you do, because you enjoy doing it.
Hobbies could be coin collecting, antiquing, drawing/sketching, playing an instrument, or playing video games. It doesn’t matter what your hobby is, as long as it gives you a break from the things you have to to do. Another requirement: You have to look forward to it.
I love playing video games of all kinds. Whether these are on my pc, my iPad, or my Xbox. They are challenging, entertaining, and even educational. I look forward to my daily session, and laugh, yell, and have a heck of a good time. It is even more fun when I can link up with my brother and play together.
This is what I’m talking about. The passion for your hobby has to be there. You have to enjoy it, think about it, and relish the time you get to do it.
Think about people who enjoy fishing. These people can’t wait to get back out on their boats and fish again.
Think about those people who enjoy golf. They can’t wait to get out to the course. They even plan their vacations around it. Does that resort have a golf course?
I hope you get my point. The quote, “All work and no play make Jack a dull boy” rings true here. Spice up your life a bit with a hobby. It provides a great retreat from your daily routine of work, chores, bill paying, and errands.
In the meantime, I’m about ready to head down and fire up my Xbox.
Have a great Monday, folks!
Until next time…
Dave
