I hope you find this Ted Talk entertaining. I am doing my best to focus most of my posts on Women this month, to celebrate Women’s History Month. Enjoy!
I hope all of you are having a great Friday! Friday, in my religious path, is a day of fasting. We don’t do food fasting. We do what is called a Mental Fast. On each Friday, we are to avoid any negative thoughts. So, the videos I post here each week are some of the things I watch to remain focused on positive, uplifting, funny things. I also listen to uplifting music, read uplifting articles and books, and do all I can to focus on the good in my life. It’s a terrific practice.
Well, that’s it for today, folks. Have a great weekend, and take some time for yourself, why don’t ya!
Until next time…

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…

We look before and after, And pine for what is not; Our sincerest laughter With some pain is fraught; Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.
There is a harmony in autumn, and a luster in its sky, which through the summer is not heard or seen, as if it could not be, as if it had not been!
Familiar acts are beautiful through love.
Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.
Fear not for the future, weep not for the past.
If you could not tell, Percy is a poet. Here’s a Wikipedia link for more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Bysshe_Shelley
Have a great Wednesday, folks!
Until next time…

I’m back, after a great week with my brother and his girlfriend, We all had a great time, and we all got to celebrate my Mother’s 78th birthday. My sister came down, so all of the siblings were here, along with the gal.
How do you get back on track, after a long vacation? For me, it’s my to-do app, set up with recurring tasks. All my daily to-dos are recurring, so my to-do list literally tells me what I need to do. It’s great!
While my brother was here, I was surprised with an early birthday gift (My birthday is in October). The birthday gift was a 2TB storage drive for my Xbox. After installing it, which took about a minute, I now have 1.7TB of storage remaining. What a treat! I’ve also started playing Call of Duty, Mobile. It is Call of Duty’s way of allowing folks to play their game, who cannot afford an XBOX. I have to say it is quite a good game. I play it on my iPad, and use an Apple-specific controller. It’s great fun. I’ve also decided, since I enjoy so many games, that I’ll stick with Call of Duty Mon-Friday, and then play some new games on the weekend.
Today, I’m knocking out the cobwebs and getting back on track. I recently received an inner prompting to take stock of my life, look at what I am doing every day, and make some adjustments. I get this prompting from time-to-time, and it is a great way to evaluate, consolidate, and reorganize. A friend of mine recently retired and asked for some advice. I told her, find a hobby, list out the things she has always wanted to do, but never had time, and put together a list of daily things she could do to start getting all these things moving. She asked, “Why?” I replied, “Because, binge watching Netflix will get old real quick.”
The point I’m making here is that when you have a lot of time, it is easy to waste it. Retirement does not mean you quit life. It means you enjoy it more fully. If you have recently retired, take a look at your life. What works? What doesn’t work? Then, make a list of all the things you want to focus on for the rest of your life. It could be writing a book, going back to school, learning a musical instrument, taking up drawing, creating a reading list, or even join a book club. The possibilities are endless, and you’ll have fun deciding what you want to do with yourself.
For me, my focus is on learning, reading, writing, spirituality, staying in shape, and gaming. Gaming is my hobby, so I don’t do any gaming, until I’ve knocked out my daily tasks. Life is not without some form of self-discipline. My exercise habits waned during the pandemic, so this is something I will be revisiting for sure. The older I get, the more quickly I get out of shape. Whew!
I’m also doing something different this year. My religious path, follows a different calendar than a traditional one. Our New Year starts on the 23rd of October each year. So, November will now be my January. So, plan on my yearly goals, aspirations, and plans in October instead of December. I’ll get this out to all of you, after I’ve done some thinking, planning, and scheduling.
Well, that’s it for now. We had a great time with family over the last week. It was so much fun, having family meals, playing board games, talking about our memories, and just laughing and laughing. Here’s to family.
Until next time…

A husband calls for his wife on his deathbed. He tells his wife that after he passes away he doesn’t want her to be alone. “Six months after I pass, I think it would be ok for you to marry Joe.”
“Joe?” his wife asks. “But I thought you hated Joe.”
“I do,” the man answers.

I haven’t done this in a while, and figured you might enjoy these as much as I do. I don’t watch a lot of YouTube, other than Call of Duty walkthroughs and streams, but these are always a crackup when I have some downtime and want to laugh. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do. If you’ve had a tough week, take a few moments to watch these. They will brighten up your Friday and put you in a good mood for the weekend!
Enjoy!
Until next time…

The president was awakened in the middle of the night by a call from the Pentagon.
“Mr. President,” the four-star general began, “I’ve got good news and bad news.”
“What’s the bad news?” the president asked.
“The country is being taken over by aliens from another planet.”
“My God,” the president said. “What’s the good news?”
“The good news is,” said the general, “they pee oil and they’ve eaten Rush Limbaugh.”
Have a great Friday, folks!
Until next time…

I wanted to bring back Funny Friday, because some of you gave me some comments last year that you liked the jokes and other funny things I have found on the web. So here we are. Spread your wings Sunday will not be continued, however. I’ve reverted back to Sunday being my “do nothing day”, and plan on sticking with that.
I look forward to providing you some funny videos, funny jokes, and anything else I find hilarious on Fridays going forward. Happy 2021, folks!
Until next time…
