    The Reverend John Fluff was the pastor in a small town in Ireland . One day he was walking down on Main Street when he noticed a young lady of his congregation sitting in a pub drinking beer. The Reverend wasn’t happy!  

    He walked through the open door of the pub and sat down next to the woman. “Miss FitzGerald,” he said sternly, "This is no place for a member of my congregation." “ Why don't you let me take you home?" 

     

    “Sure,” she said with a slur, obviously very drunk. When Miss FitzGerald stood up from the bar, she began to weave back and forth..

     

    The Reverend realized that she had much to drink and grabbed her arms to steady her. When he did, they both lost their balance and tumbled to the floor. 

     

    After a few moments, the Reverend wound up on top of Miss FitzGerald, her skirt hiked up to her waist.

     

    The pub barkeep looked over and said, “Oy mate, we won’t have any o’ that carrying on in this pub!"  the Reverend looked up at the bartender and said,

     

    “But you don’t understand, I’m Pastor Fluff." The bartender said, “Ah well, if you're that far in, ye might as well finish."

    Hi everyone. Sorry I have been away. My Dad passed away on Friday. I will be busy with funeral and family this week, but will try to stop by from time to time. He was a WWII Veteran, and was 90 yrs old. He passed quickly and did not suffer. I am so grateful for that. I have many good memories in my heart. He was a good person. I love you Dad. photo 134455--600_zpsdsc8dstu.jpg

    One of my Queen palms has gone to seed. It has done this before, but I have never seen one this big anywhere, ever. Usually these get to be 2 or maybe 2 1/2 ft. long. but this one is just a couple inches shy of 5 ft. long.

    My Fishtail palm was getting a little too big, so I did some light pruning. First pic is after the pruning, second pic is what I took off. Now I need somebody to come help me chop all this crap up!!!!

    You just can't sit still, can you?  Good for you.  And good luck with getting someone to come help you chop it up.  I would but it's a bit too far.  Every time the grass shoots up, I think, "What I need is a nice, sharp scythe."

    A nice, respectable lady went into the pharmacy, right up to the pharmacist, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "I would like to buy some cyanide." The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?" The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."
    The pharmacists eyes got big and he exclaimed, "Lord have mercy! I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. Absolutely not! You CANNOT have any cyanide!" The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife. The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well now. That's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."

    Nope, can't sit still too long. If I do I'm afraid I'll never get back up. I don't go to the gym, I work out in the yard. I'm currently reseeding the front yard that was about 50% grass, and 50% weeds.

    Newly repotted spider plant. How old, not sure, but possibly 80 or 90 years. We've had it for 37 years, Dee's mom had it for at least 30 years, and she got it from her mother who had it for "many years". I also potted 5 pots of spider babies.

    Newly planted cacti, some transplanted out of the front yard, and some were in pots. (this one was tricky because the spines are an inch to an inch and a half long)

    One on the right was potted about a week ago, the one on the right was potted two days ago.

    Song of India plant that wasn't doing well in the yard, got potted 3 days ago.

    Last is an avacado tree grown from seed that had to be repotted 3 days ago because it had outgrown the pot it was in.

    About a week or so ago, I was watering a staghorn fern that I have hanging in a Bismark palm in the back yard. As I hit the staghorn with water, a bird took off out of the hanging basket. Took off like a bat...err, I mean a bird outta hell. Anyway, I looked in the basket and found two tiny eggs, smaller than the end of my thumb. Since then every time I go out there, I make little "tsk" tsk" sounds to let her know I am coming. She got used to me to the point that I could walk up to within about a foot of the nest. I told Dee about it this afternoon, and she wanted a pic. I went out, and momma was fine, but got scared and flew off when I took the pic. I checked the nest, and took another pic of our two new neighbors. Don't worry, she came back to the nest in less than ten minutes. The pic of the chicks isn't the best, (kinda hidden behind a piece of bark just about the same color as the chicks) but I didn't want to hang around too long so that she could come back and sit on her babies.

    I was doing some pruning in the back yard. Momma bird didn't like the sound of my saw, so when she took flight, I used the opportunity to check on the babies. They are getting bigger everyday.

  • TeeBubbaDee

    I was GOING to weed whack and mow the back yard. But I looked around and figured I should do a little pruning before I mowed. 

    After I get this mess cleaned up, I'm not sure I gonna have enough steam left to weed whack and mow.

    They grow up so fast!!!! I was in the back yard yesterday, and not really that close to the nest, but the momma took off, and to my surprise, the babies both took off too. I'm not talking about just flapping wings wildly. They both flew to the neighbor's roof which has to be 30 or 35 feet from the nest. Checked this morning and the nest is empty.

  • TeeBubbaDee

    Good morning!!!

    Getting old is like a haunted house. There are strange noises and smells that can't be explained.

  • officerripley

    Yep, and I *hate* living in a haunted house; old age truly sux.

  • TeeBubbaDee

    My mom has told me for years that "Old age ain't for sissies".

  • officerripley

    Totally true.

    My pineapple plantation. Weird fact... Other than the small one in the back, all of these plants survived for over a year just laying on a table in the back yard. They were all planted in large clay pots that I got tired of moving around every time I needed to weed whack and mow. I pulled them all out of the pots with plans on putting them in light weight plastic pots, but then the chemo kicked in and they were left on their own for nearly a year and a half. I finally got around to repotting them and all survived, and two of them are producing pineapples.
