Excellent

This poem, The Rules of Life 133-144, reminds the readers that the world revolves, and rotates around both bull shit and bags of the cotton candy soaked in syrup.

Thanks for the read. You surely put words together well. Life is a balance, part crap and part animal balloons. Love to you and yours. Karen

I hope this means your wifi is working again. We were fortunate to get underground service a few years ago. We had to get 75% of the 109 houses in our rural subdivision signed up. Took us 6 months but we did it. Enjoyed this group of rules a lot. The one about pissing people off was my family's favorite.

Boy, you have been busy writing. I love all these sayings you keep coming up with. At the end you wrote Deja Poo; was that intentional or did you mean Deja Vu? Deja Vu is the feeling that something has happened before. I never heard the saying: Deja Poo.

Deja Vue is when you think you have been here before, Deja Poo ( A made up thing) Is when you have heard this CRAP before. Karen:-)

You've got me to the point where I wake anxious to see what you'll come up with next. All the time thinking that surely you've run out of things to say, but you always come up with someone new. :-) Thanks for sharing.

I thought "Deja Poo" was hysterical. I laughed right out loud when I read it. I only changed one word. Karen

"It might have been" usually the lament of the regret one feels when they should have done something and did not.

The second part so true on both counts.

"Heard this crap before" - yep, from lots of people.

Always live by them? Naw. Where is the excitement in that? Typically ends in "it might have been."
