DAME CLEO LAINE - "I GOT IT BAD & THAT AIN'T GOOD". .

This one is for the true Jazz Lovers.

eaa - I did mean to post it on here but didn't get around to it.

It had to Be shared. Sorry I stole your thunder

I have been diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D. - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.

This is how it manifests:

I decide to water my garden.

As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide my car needs washing.

As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier.

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.

I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table, and notice that the can is full.

So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage first.

But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first. I take my
checkbook off the table, and see that there is only 1 check left.

My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Pepsi that I had been drinking.

I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to move the Pepsi so that I don't accidentally knock it over. I see that the Pepsi is getting
warm and decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.

As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye--they need to be watered. I set the Pepsi down
on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses that I've been searching for all morning.

I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers.

I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly I spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight when I go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but won't remember it's on the kitchen table, so I decide to
put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I'll water the flowers.

I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor. So, I set the remote back down on the table, get some towels and wipe
up the spill.

Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do. At the end of the day:

* The car isn't washed,
* The bills aren't paid,
* There is a warm can of Pepsi sitting on the coun ter,
* The flowers don't have enough water,
* There is still only 1 check in my checkbook,
* I can't find the remote,
* I can't find my glasses,
* And I don't remember what I did with the car keys.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I'm really tired.

I realize this is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check my e-mail.

Do me a favor, will you? Forward this message to everyone you know, because I don't remember to whom it has been sent.

Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!!

GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL. LAUGHING AT YOURSELF IS THERAPEUTIC.

Not at all, you being from Tassie and all!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE KIDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE





1930's, 40's 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's !!


First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us and lived in houses made of asbestos.








They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes or cervical cancer.











Then after that trauma, our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paints.











We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets or shoes, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.











As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.











Riding in the back of a Ute on a warm day was always a special treat.











We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.



Take away food was a special treat.




Even though all the shops closed at 6.00pm and didn't always open on the weekends, somehow we didn't starve to death!



We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.





We could collect old drink bottles and cash them in at the corner store and buy fruit tingles and some crackers to blow up frogs with.





We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soft drinks with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because......











WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!











We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.











No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.











We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. We built tree houses and cubby houses and played in creek beds with matchbox cars.











We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no surround sound, no mobile phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms..........WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!











We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no
Lawsuits from these accidents.



Only girls had pierced ears!



We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.



You could only buy Easter Eggs and Hot Cross buns at Easter time.......no really!



We were given BB guns and sling shots for our 10th birthdays,





We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just yelled for them!

Mum didn't have to go to work to help dad make ends meet!



Footy had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with

Anne, And I wouldn't gave it any other way.

Gave = have.

eaa - thank you for a bright and funny start to my day. My screen saver today is a selection of my Tassie photos. I love your island.
But - the sun is shining here, if cold, today so I.m off outside.

funny but a repeat... love the old age one tho.

Angela/Texas, been thinking of you.
How are you going?

Just heading home. Hopefully will catch you over the weekend.

eaa - I too have A.A.A.D.D. You have just described my day today.

hope all is well with you all.

good evening everybodys
hope friday has been kind to you all and for those just getting there .. it is a good day ahead. well it was here anyway.

G'day Rose, and how is ya this very fine evening?

bit chilly up this way for summer Angie .... only got a fan on instead of air conditioner .....

Yep agree Rose, chilly here for summer. We have had showers on and off all day. Air con has been off for a couple of days.

the next 4 days are suppose to stay under 30C .... vewy unewsual for mid summer

our overnight temperatures are headed for single digits for the next few nights, might have to put a blanket on!!

Yes so I've heard Rose, should be good, hopefully I will be able to get out into the garden and do some weeding. And perhaps prune some roses.

oh no cant prune the roses now Angie ... have to wait for the really chilly weather not just the cool summer weather.

a gentle prune may help them flower again though ... as long as it doesnt get too cold I spose and give them frost burn ......

yep gotta wait till autumn angie! and you know where your blankies are rose??

think that was a bit double dutch ...... but roses are not the flowers from the dutch homeland ... tulips are! so guess it might make sense ... maybe it was Irish! do they have roses? and when do they prune them?

Gee thanks girls, wonder if that is the reason they didn't bloom so well this year.
Mind you I could do with some help thou, have had heaps of Lemons this year, and not quite sure what to do with them. Any suggestions?

oh have no idea where my shepshial blanky is Em .. tis a few years since I had that!
but I do have a blanket on my bed for those chilly nights ... well it spends most of its time on the floor in summer time though as only have sheet on.
sorry if that is TMI for you!

oh Angie
Fi from NT has great recipe for home made lemonade. did she send you her recipe for christmas time?

Angie
are they lemons that have been watered the australian way?
to give them that speshial tarty taste!

OH DOH!
Thanks Rose, I had completely forgotten about that
Hey Fi, why not post your speshial receipe in the forum pages!

tarty lemons!! I can see them now strolling down the street in their fishnet tights and super high heels!

OH my goodness, Rose, could be, wonder if that would work on the roses!

Angie
you can also use lemons as a natural bleach ..... for your clothes or your hair .... the pips are a worry though ... they get stuck in the comb!

Em
they are lemon tarts ...... not tarty lemons ..... sorry to be pedantic but it is slightly different

Em, was it you that told me a while ago, about using Lemons to clean your oven?

but tarty lemons sounds so much more fun, not as delicious but a lot more fun!

Dont think I have changed my youtube for a while but it is Robbie Williams singing ....
umm not sure cant remember, but he is really good!

Btw..Have I mentioned my today. Its a great song.
Dan Hill with Sometimes When We Touch
Em..this could be another lesson for you.

oh tarty lemons ... leave a bit of after taste though Em
