Karen,

You are a very witty person. I don't know where you come up with these list all the time. Is it something that comes natural or do you have to think hard about.

Well done my witty friend

Cecilia

Hi Karen, my appologies for not wishing you in time a happy valentine, I had some lazy me time:) "9 Nothing makes you appreciate something as much as when you had difficulty achieving it.


#10 Once I read a book about glue. I couldn't put it down.


#11 Without failures, you can have no successes." the above were my favorite:)

    #10 is a silly thing, just the thought of it cracks me up. Maybe I'll write about all the uses of duct tape!
    All my muse wants to do is humor these days. Thanks for the read. Karen

Number 7 is so very true. You can make anybody smile, even me feeling like the flu will kill me yet. Did you ever do stand up? You may have missed your calling it you didn't.

    Thanks for the read, after the sixth one I had to quit for a while. I burn out. My mom and her Dad were a high benchmark for funny. Two of my sisters also know funny. My oldest sister is a bit of a twit. Karen

Hello Karen,
I truly enjoyed these. There is lots of wisdom here gal. I understand perfectly about not being able to get back up when you're down. I was on my knees today at the cafe' and almost needed help getting back up. Hopefully this knee surgery will help with that. Well done gal. These were funny.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

You should stop throwing up those pills. 3-5-6-7 are my favorites. 5 is extremely easy. For you lolololol. These are fun to read. I bet they were fun to write. I'm writing a story about a man who loses his wife and baby and goes crazy. Do you think anyone will read this one? I don't get a lot of traffic. I read for free. Not so much for others.

    A straight drama probably not.But if you throw revenge in it, or suspense. Then yes it would.Say your beloved wife and child was hit by a drunk driver, who skated by because in that small town they were passing through his family ran it, well, you could weasel your way into his set of friends and slowly torture him by feeding him paranoia drugs. Or. if it was a mistaken hit by a gang. Go to work for the other side. Many choices out there.Thanks for the read.

My favorite of all of these is the one about reading a book about glue and you couldn't put it down. That is cute. I wish you a very good day. Also, wish you a very terrific weekend. Patricia.

    Thanks for the read. I will do one more and then rest from this stuff for a while. I don't want to burn out.
    You have a good weekend too. Karen

    I write some myself, borrow some from old stories, yes and even the bible. And some were serious quotes that I turned upside down. There is really nothing that hasn't been said some way at sometime somewhere. Karen

Some more of your little gems...

Some are funny and some are very wise! (Time is not something we can count on -- if you'll excuse the pun)

I'm on board with cooking with wine THAT way!

#12 is so bizarre I HAD to laugh!

Keep 'em coming, Karen.

If I watch five-minutes of cable news I need to know I can come here and cleanse my brain!

    I think Groucho Marx is the first time I heard #12. It cracks me up it is so silly. And, even if he said it, that doesn't mean he wrote it. I looked it up and it has never been attributed to him. Thanks for the read.
