    A wealthy man decided to go on a safari in Africa. He took his faithful pet dachshund along for company. One day, the dachshund starts chasing butterflies and before long the dachshund discovers that he is lost.

    So, wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the obvious intention of having him for lunch.

    The dachshund thinks, "OK, I'm in deep trouble now!" Then he noticed some bones on the ground close by, and immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap, the dachshund exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there are any more around here."

    Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid-stride, as a look of terror comes over him, and slinks away into the trees.

    "Whew," says the leopard. "That was close. That dachshund nearly had me."

    Meanwhile, a monkey, who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So, off he goes.

    But the dachshund saw him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figured that something must be up.

    The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine."

    Now the dachshund sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back, and thinks, "What am I going to do now?" But instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet ... and, just when they get close enough to hear, the dachshund says...

    "Where's that darn monkey? I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me another leopard."

    Lori-September and no that's not my sisters dog but hers looks a lot like that one. CYN-As soon as you type in hypo dogs a list pops up and not all looked like expensive breeds. I always make my sister feel ashamed for paying a fortune for a dog instead of adopting. That dog is more valuable than jewelry she owns! ORANGE-I wasn't told to wear a bra or not to wear one so I don't. I'm not too big yet,only had 2 fills since July. I've been having some complications so just waiting until the 13th now. Driving me crazy too,I can't wear a regular shirt until then. In a t-shirt I look like I haven't hit puberty yet. Still flat enough that you can't tell the difference between my back and my front,uggghhh.

    Good morning, Loungettes!  Sign of the season--it was DARK when the alarm went off at 5:30 ayem!  Talk about hard to get out of bed, I hit the snooze button so many times Sadie stopped even looking at me when it went off.  Finally dragged my a$$ out of the bed at 6:45.  So glad I laid everything for today out last night.  So even starting late I've got my coffee and breakfast, the pie for work is beside the door, lunch is packed and hanging on the doorknob, tonight's dinner is in the slow cooker.  AND I still have a few minutes to sit down and check out the boards.  There may be something to this being organized business after all!

    Hope everyone had a good Labor day, weather (sp?) working or off.  

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the Back to Work
    4 oz Champagne
    1/4 oz Gin
    1/2 oz Tangerine Schnapps

    Directions
    Pour into a champagne flute, garnish with a twist of orange, and serve.

    Lara, are you looking forward to the work travel?

    Shannon, I'll be gone mid September. Heading out to MI to see family and friends. But I think I saw you mention the end of the month?

    DorK, thanks for sending the help, I really really need it. Besides, partying with you is a much better choice. I hope you were able to go to bed early last night. Did Stella come back alone?

    LOL NM, you hit the snooze for an hour and 15 minutes? Indeed back to work, although that is pretty much what I did all weekend!

    Cyn, are you off today?

    We need a 2 DOTD's, 2 for 2'sday. This just looked yummy. Blackberry Sage Cooler, but it didn't have any likker in it. So I say, put some wodka in it.

    15 medium sage leaves

    4 tablespoons sugar

    1 cup water

    8 ounces of blackberries

    blackberry sage cooler

    Cami, if you leave your post there, I might be able to pull it up for you. Not always, but sometimes! Sometimes they have copy rights, and won't show up. Like my funny one below. But I saved it and was able to re-produce.

    Julie, I just chalk up the vision with age! I got enough stuff to blame on the Rat Basturd.

    Here is The HTL video, for anyone that has not seen it.

    Cyn, there is no such thing as a Debbie Downer here, remember we are here to support one another and lend a shoulder to cry on. I always try to remind myself that things could be worse. I know that doesn't help the problem, but sometimes helps my mind. So I'll share some Natty's with you and give you my shoulder for this evening. But fair warning, t'is a little bony!

    AND MAYBE ONE TO MAKE YA SMILE~

    goldie ,i'm with you,i used to chalk a lot ofthings up to age but thanks to frb i'm forced to deal with.  next on the list is the gyne visit,again something else i used to ignore!       plus we're back in flu shot season now. i promised my family i would do everything to treat and prevent frb.( i was the 3rd one,they already had mysister and aunt diagnosed).   and on a lighter note,i found a british fish and chip shop in town, so had cod and chips with 2 bottles of summer cider for lunch

    You are in the middle of some kind of project around the house -- mowing the
    lawn, putting in a new fence, painting the living room or whatever. You are
    hot and sweaty, covered in dust, lawn clippings, dirt or paint. You have
    your old work clothes on. You know the outfit -- shorts with the hole in the
    crotch, old T-shirt with a stain from who-knows-what and an old pair of
    tennis shoes.

    Right in the middle of this great home improvement project you realize you
    need to run to Home Depot to get something to help complete the job.


    Depending on your age you might do the following:

    In your 20's:
    Stop what you are doing. Shave, take a shower, blow dry your hair, brush
    your teeth, floss and put on clean clothes.
    Check yourself in the mirror and flex. Add a dab of your favorite cologne
    because you never know, you just might meet some hot chick while standing in
    the checkout lane. And you went to school with the pretty girl running the
    register.

    In your 30's:
    Stop what you are doing, put on clean shorts and shirt. Change shoes. You
    married the hot chick so no need for much else. Wash your hands and comb
    your hair. Check yourself in the mirror. Still got it. Add a shot of your
    favorite cologne to cover the smell. The cute girl running the register is
    the kid sister to someone you went to school with.

    In your 40's:
    Stop what you are doing. Put on a sweatshirt that is long enough to cover
    the hole in the crotch of your shorts.
    Put on different shoes and a hat. Wash your hands. Your bottle of Brute
    Cologne is almost empty so you don't want to waste any of it on a trip to
    Home Depot. Check yourself in the mirror and do more sucking in then
    flexing. The hot young thing running the register is your daughter's age and
    you feel weird thinking she is hot.

    In your 50's:
    Stop what you are doing. Put on a hat; wipe the dirt off your hands onto
    your shirt. Change shoes because you don't want to get dog crap in your new
    sports car. Check yourself in the mirror and you swear not to wear that
    shirt anymore because it makes you look fat. The cutie running the register
    smiles when she sees you coming and you think you've still got it. Then you
    remember the hat you have on is from Bubba's Bait & Beer Bar and it says, 'I
    Got Worms .'

    In your 60's:
    Stop what you are doing. No need for a hat anymore. Hose the dog crap off
    your shoes. The mirror was shattered when you were in your 50's. You hope
    you have underwear on so nothing hangs out the hole in your pants. The girl
    running the register may be cute, but you don't have your glasses on so
    you're not sure.

    In your 70's:
    Stop what you are doing. Wait to go to Home Depot until the drug store has
    your prescriptions ready, too. Don't even notice the dog crap on your shoes.
    The young thing at the register stares at you and you realize your balls are
    hanging out the hole in your crotch.

    In your 80's:
    Stop what you are doing. Start again. Then stop again. Now you remember you
    need to go to Home Depot. Go to Wal-Mart instead and wander around trying to
    think what it is you are looking for. Fart out loud and you think someone
    called out your name. You went to school with the old lady who greeted you
    at the front door.

    In your 90's & beyond :
    What's a home deep hoe? Something for my garden? Where am I? Who am I? Why
    am I reading this? Did I send it? Did you? Who farted?

    Oh Bernie you just don't know how much I needed that laugh today......thank you.



    One of our precious stage IV girls passed yesterday. Marybe was one of the ladies I met here and then in person on my trip last year. She was the sweetest woman that God ever put breath into. May she be welcomed home into his loving arms for eternity.
