Friday Funnies

Friday, April 27, 2012

A mother crocodile was extremely busy and didn’t have time to plan out dinner for her family that evening.

No big deal. She just grabbed a few things out of the fridge and threw them in the croc-pot.

A zoo was on the brink of going out of business and needed a big attraction. So they hired a man to dress up in a gorilla costume and pretend to be the great ape. The trick worked well for most of the summer. The man played the part enthusiastically, but one day he got a little too excited and accidentally fell into the lion cage next door. “Help! Help!” cried the fake gorilla.

The lion let out a terrifying roar, then rushed at the gorilla, put his paw on his chest, and growled, “Shut up, or we’ll both lose our jobs!”

Clearing clutter is as good for the soul as it is for the living room.

I know you are right and I feel so good when I do it, and it looks nice, but I still don't want to do it :) Report Inappropriate Comment

Appreciate tradition

Wednesday, April 25, 2012

Cultivate family traditions. They make occasions feel special and exciting, mark the passage of time in a happy way, and provide a sense of anticipation, security, and continuity. There’s no need to wait for traditions to emerge spontaneously. A “new tradition” may be an oxymoron, but that shouldn’t prevent you from inventing a tradition that you wish you had.

Couldn't agree more. Family traditions are a rock - if everything else goes haywire, they keep you grounded and comfortable :) Report Inappropriate Comment

Aim High

“In the long run men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high.”

3 more ways to stick to your exercise routine

Monday, April 23, 2012

1. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Don’t decide it’s worth exercising only if you can run five miles or bike for an hour. Even going for a ten-minute walk is worthwhile. Do what you can.

2. Suit up. Even if you’re not sure you’re going to exercise, put on your exercise clothes. Pack your bag. Put the dog’s leash by the door. Get prepared. If you’re ready, you might find it easier to go ahead and exercise. Sometimes a very trivial thing—like not knowing where your shoes are—gets in the way.

3. Don’t kid yourself. Paying for a gym membership doesn’t mean you go to the gym. Having been in shape in high school or college doesn’t mean you’re in shape now. Saying that you don’t have time to exercise doesn’t make it true.
