Life Through the Eyes of my Scattered Brian

Ran across this shot at the building expo last month.....

I once worked with a man several years ago in the Printing Division for the State of Tennessee. He told me once that people would not know the silly things I did if I did not come in and tell them on myself. In which I replied, that I got a good laugh from them and I love sharing a laugh, so I tell on myself. This next comment I shared just for my blogging friends since it just happened last Friday and I have yet to share it! Do you ever just get up dragging in the morning and making yourself go to get ready to head out the door to work…. and maybe you are not really all the way awake until later when you are at work? I am pleading this next confession to that…I was not awake. I had been here at work for several hours on Friday before I noticed on one of my trips to the bathroom, that my undies were inside out! Go figure... the worst part of that was that this was late in the afternoon and I had been down the hall to that room at least twice before! I was glad no one was in the room at...

True Story Tuesday – Swimming with the Fishes I have taken two cruises in the past, the first being in 2003 and the last being in 2006. The first was with my sister in law, niece and nephew and the last was my sister in law, her parents and a boat load of her relatives. I enjoyed both cruises but I have to say that the first one was the best as far as the people who worked on the ship. The second was the best for the things that we did. I am actually going to reflect this post to the second trip which was to Cozumel, Mexico and from there to Panama and from there to Oche Rio, Jamaica. This cruise was a longer then the first one so when we finally made it to Jamaica we were so ready to be going home that we did not do anything in this port but walk around Oche Rio. The things we did before then took place in Cozumel and Panama. Cozumel being where I swam with the fishes! Big fishes! Dolphins to be exact, which actually they are mammals and not fish at all. But my title would not have b...

This weeks photo challenge for I Heart Faces is photo's taken at unusual angles. This photo of my grandson, Caleb was taken at the park a couple of weeks ago. He was up on one of the play wooden boats, going down the hatch to the bottom, which made him a bit higher then me. I snapped this just before he lowered himself into the bow fo the ship. Love that smile he always gives Nana when he is the center of my attention. Jump on over to http://iheartfaces.blogspot.com/ and take a look at all the interesting photo's. Thanks for stopping by for a visit with Caleb and I at play.

Thank you very much Thursday! Yippee …..I made it another week through the upsets, the stress and the things that tick me off and I am here to tell you about them. Thanks to Kmama’s for hosting this free therapy day for all of us to vent, scream, and be ugly…in a nice way! I am here to say thanks to ~~~~~~~~ The built up of stress in having to take a stress test last Friday. Just knowing you have to have it is stressful in itself, is that way it is called a stress test? By the way, got to call yesterday that said it was just fine! Thank You Very Much….. For the time change that I am trying to get my body to adjust to, Thank You Very Much. To a busy, somewhat stressful week at work. That is not the norm so it takes getting use to. Thank You Very Much. To the really low tire I found on Friday and to the fact that now I have to make a mental note to watch it. Thank You Very Much. To Dakota, my dog, for deciding that is pee schedule has changed and he feels the NEED to go out around midni...

I just realized that I am not a shoe person or shall I say I am not fancy, stylish or heel shoe type of person. This is for couple of reasons~ 1. At my age comfort is more the type. Yes, you younger ladies who wear the heels and tight fitting shoes will learn this one day. I too use to wear the narrow high heeled shoes, the wooden style of 70's platform shoes, jellies, and tight fitting stylish shoes....those days are LONG gone. 2. Back issues, heels are just not for someone with back issues. Flats are my basic wear these days. With all that said let me tell you how I rather my feet be....bare! But since I decided to play in the shoe party I will show you some of my favorite ones.... Starting with summer and some well worn ones (love these)..... these shots of course were taken at different times... The top last summer and the bottom was just done a few minutes ago for this post. I love flip flops for my basic summer wear. These just happen to be a new pair that my Mom got me at...
