Hump Day Humor....

Skinny Dipping

An elderly man in Florida had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back.


It was properly shaped for swimming, so he fixed it up nice with picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and some orange, and lime trees.

One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond, as he hadn't been there for a while, and look it over.

He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.

As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond.

He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.

One of the women shouted to him, 'we're not coming out until you leave!'

The old man frowned, 'I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked or make you get out of the pond naked..'

Holding the bucket up he said, 'I'm here to feed the alligator.'

Some old men can still think fast.


Sorry for the late post. Internet issues hung me up!

Have a great hump day!

Food For Thought...

"Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your mind. Put your whole soul to it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm."

Ralph Waldo Emerson
1803-1882, Essayist, Philosopher and Poet


Have a great, enthusiastic Tuesday!!!!

Peace and love,

What I'm Reading...

Yay!! The 4th book in Larissa Ione's Demonica series came in yesterday and I'm so excited. I'm trying to use it as a reward, only reading a few pages AFTER I've done my editing.

Paula - glad you're loving the series!!

Here's the deets on the 4th book, for those who aren't familiar.



A Demon Enslaved…

Lore is a Seminus half-breed demon who has been forced to act as his dark master’s assassin. Now to earn his freedom and save his sister’s life, he must complete one last kill. Powerful and ruthless, he’ll stop at nothing to carry out this deadly mission.

An Angel Tempted…

Idess is an earthbound angel with a wild side sworn to protect the human Lore is targeting. She’s determined to thwart her wickedly handsome adversary by any means necessary—even if that means risking her vow of eternal chastity. But what begins as a simple seduction soon turns into a passion that leaves both angel and demon craving complete surrender.

Torn between duty and desire, Lore and Idess must join forces as they battle their attraction for each other. Because an enemy from the past is rising again—hellbent on vengeance and unthinkable destruction.


I hope it's a fantastic weekend for everyone!!

Woo-hooo!!!!

I have great news. A milestone, of sorts.

The doctor said (with heavy French accent), "Your brain looks fantastic. No growth, no change, no brain deterioration. Everything looks great. And we can back your appts up to every 3 months, instead of every 2. We'll do that twice, and then we'll go to every 4 months."

We are sooooo excited! It's a great psychological boost, for sure!

Hope ya'll have had a great day!!
Hugs to all,
Alannah

Hump Day Humor....

A couple were celebrating 50 years together. Their three kids, all very successful, agreed to a Sunday dinner in their honor.

"Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad," gushed son number one .... "Sorry I'm running late. I had an emergency at the hospital with a patient, you know how it is, and I didn't have time to get you a gift."

"Not to worry," said the father. "The important thing is that we're all together today."

Son number two arrived and announced, "You and Mom look great, Dad. I just flew in from Los Angeles between depositions and didn't have time to shop for you."

"It's nothing," said the father. "We're glad you were able to come."

Just then the daughter arrived. "Hello and happy anniversary! I'm sorry, but my boss is sending me out of town and I was really busy packing so I didn't have time to get you anything."

After they had finished dessert, the father said, "There's something your mother and I have wanted to tell you for a long time. You see, we were very poor. Despite this, we were able to send each of you to college. Throughout the years your mother and I knew that we loved each other very much, but we just never found the time to get married."

The three children gasped and all said, "You mean we're bastards?"

"Yep," said the father. "And cheap ones too."

Happy Hump Day!
Peace and love,

What's Everyone Reading?

I've finished with the first 3 books in Larissa Ione's Demonica series, and I'm so relieved!! LOL I loved those books and had a really tough time putting them down.

That caused me problems, because I was having a tough time getting my own writing done. And I'm on a really tight deadline, if I want to get this story ready in time to enter it in Brava's Writing With the Stars Contest.

So what's everyone else reading?

We're off to the river for the weekend. Today is kidlet's 15th birthday and we're going to celebrate. For the past year, he's planned on driving us to the river. However, the driving school didn't call until tonight to schedule his three days of driving, so it's going to be another week before he gets his permit. :( He's not happy, but there's nothing that can be done until he does his driving time.

I hope it's a great weekend for everyone!!

Peace and love,
