For Mothers With a Quirky Sense of Humour – Happy Mother’s Day!

My hubby and I just heard this great old joke in the movie, Belfast. Super movie, by the way!

What do *you* think?

Russia’s “special military operation” – aka scorched-earth-murders-and-mayhem genocide underway in Ukraine since February – shows no signs of abating. Aside from the torture and killings as well as the displacement of millions of refugees, how is this allowed to happen?

A memorable quote…

I came across this wonderful post on Quora.com – an interesting Q&A site (where the usual opinionated people can be found, just like on Twitter, only less pithy 😅).

Please, please, please…

…be careful out there!

Gone

The fragility of life.

Bravery

What unbelievable courage and determination!

I’ll give it 10 more minutes

This is my test for new TV shows.

Vaccinaaation 🎶🎵

With apologies to Fermo Dante Marchetti and Maurice de Féraudy, composer and lyricist of the famous song, Fascination – perhaps best known as performed by Nat King Cole:

So: I have taken the liberty of writing a version that is perhaps more current, given these Covid times… My ditty goes like this:

🎶🎵 Vaccinaaation 🎶🎵

It was vaccinaaation, I know,
Time for a shot in my arm, for protection
Just a little jab, just a tiny stab
I was saved by a quickie injection

It was vaccinaaation, I know,
A second shot came along three months later
Just a little poke, it really is no joke –
My arm hurt like a bite from a ‘gator

It was vaccinaaation, I know,
Time to get boostered, just for “insurance”
Just a little pierce, just a little prick
No Covid! For I have resistance! …well, 70% resistance… approximately… they’re not sure…

😬😅

On and Off

Best wishes to you all for a very Happy New Year with MUCH less Covid around… 😅

Ow!

Ordinarily I’m not the type to complain. Much. But this is something new.
