Totally WOW Wednesday!

So, today was Totally WOW Wednesday!

(That confused you didn't it - I thought I'd break with recent tradition and publish in 'real time'.)

Well no one pissed me off today so..................WOW!


But I broke my favourite shoes and the only pair of brown shoes I own, which is no good if you spend half your time in autumnal coloured clothing so......................... not so WOW.

But have ordered new ones online (don't trust myself to go shopping in town!) so......................the WOW is back (although I'm a little sceptical about ordering shoes online but we'll see!)!

Looking back at my recent posts (and even just today) I am starting to wonder if maybe I'm a little unhinged lately - I seem to be either Angry Woman (hear me roar) or Crazy Lady (hear me giggle manically in the corner), I think I'd like to aim for Away With The Fairies Lady for a while and retreat somewhere nice and fluffy (hear me not at all - a relief for some I'm sure).

Speaking of nice and fluffy, this was a bit of a wow moment from Dawn......................here..........if you don't like fluffy silver kitten things this is not the link for you.

Pops sent me a joke today....................
Yesterday I was at my local CO-OP in Denbigh buying a large bag of Purina dog food for my loyal pet and was in the checkout queue when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

What did she think I had an elephant? So, since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn’t, because I ended up in hospital last time, but that I'd lost 2 stones before I woke up in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again.
(I have to mention here that practically everyone in queue was now enthralled with my story.)
Horrified, she asked me if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me... I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's arse and a car hit us both.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard.
I 'm now banned from the Co-op.
Better watch what you ask retired people
They have all the time in the world to think of daft things to say.

Of course, some of us don't need all the time in the world to think of daft things to say, it just comes naturally!
