Anyone know the head and shoudlers knees and toes song? Yeah well, I have my own...on a bad day I can sing where I hurt :)

 

Hips, and ankles, knees and fingers, KNEES AND FINGERS!

Hips, and ankles, knees and fingers, KNEES AND FINGERS!

Wrists and jaw and shoulders and neck!

HIPS AND ANKLES KNEES AND FINGERS!

 

*takes a bow* thank you...thank you....

 

Or.... how 'bout the Hokey Pokey??? Put your left hand in and shake it all about...  !!!!    THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!!!!    It would have to go "put your left hand in and involuntarily shake it all about" haha At least for me it would!! Oh I like to find humor in all of it :) There is nothing in this world that I CAN'T laugh at......I'm probably going to hell for that...but hey...at least I smiled along the way...lolME TOO!!!!

How fun!! 

 

My personal song to the “head, shoulders” tune is:

 

Hands and wrists, knees and feet

Knees and feet.

 

Hands and wrists, knees and feet

Knees and feet.

 

I would really love to get some sleep.

 

Hands and wrists, knees and feet

KNEES AND FEET!!

LOL!!!!!! I love it. See, we should all ALWAYS find humor it in. Like, I think its amazing how far across a room I can launch something when my hands cramp up. I couldn't do it if I was TRYING, but damnit all if the arthritis doesn't make me a world recorld holder for pickle launching...lol

That is awesome, Katie!  I am the world record holder for coffee pot dropping.  My goal is to get the glass shards to spray farther and farther across the room.  I believe one time I found some outside - and the doors had all been closed!  Now that is amazing! 

My license for coffee pot handling has been taken from me.  I now can only operate a plastic, all in one coffee station.  While the station is fantastic, I miss the excitement of the glass pot. 

LOL I love it. See, there really is humor in EVERYTHING. The other fav of mine is dropping things in wal-mart. The first thing I pick up, I ALWAYS drop. And it's amazing how quickly I forget that fact, and grab something breakable. Hahahaha Poor wal-mart. My b/f thinks it's HYSTERICAL. We always make a good laugh of it :)

A man who smelled like a distillery flopped on a subway seat next to a priest. The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red lipstick, and a half empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began reading. After a few minutes, the disheveled guy turned to the priest and asked, "Say, father, what causes arthritis?"

"Mister, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol and a contempt for your fellow man."

"Well I'll be." the drunk muttered, returning to his paper.

The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and apologized. "I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong. How long did you have arthritis?"

"I don't have it father. I was just reading here that the Pope does."

 

 

I had to share. :) It made me grin.

That's funny, Katie!  Thank you for the laugh!!  :) 

Hey Katie. Loved the joke about the priest, the drunk and the pope. have to remember that one. And yeah, to me, a good sense of humor is the most important. People tend to take themselves to seriously all the time. I truly believe that laughter IS the best medicine.

Keep on smilin',

I got a new one. 'Cept this ones for real.

 

This morning was one of "those" mornings. Instead of getting depressed though, I found the humor in it.

I flung my toothbrush SO far across the bathroom, I got toothpaste and spit on the wall. O.o Yet my brush still ended up in the sink. Haha right on top of the little hairs that my hunny had just shaved off his chin. EW EW!

So I clean up my face, and the wall, and my toothbrush....and attempt make-up. I end up with foundation on my LIPS and I eyebrow brushed my forehead more than my eyebrows. Haha

Putting up my hair was like watching a blind kid try to whittle. I had my hair clip SO crooked...a crack head could have done better. LOL I think it's still crooked...but I had to give up on my 5th try...I was running late!

Getting my belt through my belt loops was fun, because my pants decided to roll down over the loops. what the hell..they've never done THAT before..so after about 15mins, I think I got it..and I'm out the door. I was upset for about 30 seconds...until I replayed it all in my head, and I realized how funny it looked. And I can't really be upset...I got everything done...and I was only 7 minutes late...haha

So...it's not all bad....just simle!

Hi Katie..I'm still smiling about the cutie pie drunk.  LOL

Also seems like YOU had a FUN time!!!  You are so right, we need to smile & find laughter in the crazy things that happen.

My latest crazy thing was last night. My husband had the kitchen door half opened, talking to a neighbor that was leaving. He called me & said something flew into the house. I started looking.........well I found a large bat on the top of our fireplace wall. Of course I let out a few screams, grabbed my dog, closed all the doors to other rooms & stayed in one till my husband got it. It took about 25 minutes. After it was over, I just had to laugh. Wasn't funny while it was going on, though. My sister always tells me that I'm Batty. LOL

Have a great evening

Trisha

Haha. NICE. I can relate. Shortly after an ER visit for my hunny, that ulitmately left both of us in pain (grumble at those docs..) he was trying to relax on the sofa, after taking some heavy duty narcotic pains meds that sounded like they were prescribed by a voodoo master....and he thought he saw something on the bookshelf...and paniced...I came racing in and thought I saw a Palmetto bug (hey floridians, hows that for a 3am wake up?) So I raided the CRAP out of it - after about 20 minuutes of deciding if he was going to do it, or if I was going to do it - Only to see it..well..not move...which didn't make sense, they ALWAYS fly when you disturb them - after waiting another half hour or so, to make sure the raid had gotten it...I went to clean it up..

Only to find that it was really just the tassles on my bookmark...

Hey, it was dark...it was 3am...he was on painkillers...I was half asleep and on painkillers..

LOL

OMG!!!!!!!!! Katie, that is so funny!!! Thank you for a good old fashion belly

Trisha

OMG! Katie, I get such a kick out of you

I live in Florida and when I first moved here six years ago I walked into the family room one day to find my two sons ages 13 and 16 FEEDING a palmetto bug POTATO CHIPS!!! They'd never seen a bug that big. I guess it looked like a small pet

It's just a nice example of THINK before you speak.

We were watching TV, and there was a commercial for that show on MTV "Yo Momma" If you haven't seen it, its where Wilmer Valderama(sp?) from That 70's show has kids up against each other, telling Yo Momma jokes. Like "Yo momma so fat, she sat on a rainbow and made skittles" Very stupid show.

The commercial was one of those "New season of Yo Momma, premires blah blah blah"

To which my WONDERFUL b/f quickly responds:

"ANOTHER season of F***in Yo Momma!?!?"

 

Oh I do love him.....

I apologize for the language. He was just so sickened by the show...and haha I dunno. I laughed so hard...

So here's a new one.

You know those big paper clips? They're black and have silver metal "wings" so to speak? You can bend the "wings" down onto the clip and it opens up, and when you put it around the paper, you flip the "wings" back down over the paper? You get the idea.

I was using one at work. My hands a little crummy right now, and this clip was REALLY a pain.

So I got a bright idea. Real bright. I'll use my teeth! GENIUS!

I bit. It opened. The paper came out. Then it closed. And the back half of it "opened" in my mouth. O.o

IT WAS STUCK. :| It was soooooooooooo embarassing...

I don't know what the heck I was thinking. I need sleep or something. Note to self - Just because your hands don't work, doesn't mean using your teeth with be any better.

Wanna know what's even funnier? I tried it again later... Same results, if you were wondering. Haha
