Things I have learned from ants

1. Ants go crazy when you blow in the ant farm.
2. Ants have no lungs. They breathe through their "skin". Don't ask, I don't know how.
3. Ants move their dead to a pile and then bury them.
4. If an ant dies in a tunnel they close the tunnel to entrap the dead ant.
5. Ants sleep standing up.
6. Female ants who are fertile grow wings and fertile male ants grow wings too. They mate in the air and then they pull their wings off and lay their eggs in the ground.
7. Female ants don't come in the pack when you buy an ant farm.
8. Ants die quickly when they live with other ants who have died.
9. Ants that die after two weeks they get this white foam on them.
10. Growing butterflies is much more fun than ants!!!

No they are not all dead yet. But they have stopped tunneling because all the tunnels have dead ants in them.

The People Who Make me Laugh


Today is.... National She's Funny That Way Day, a day to pay tribute to funny women by listing ways the women in our lives make us laugh (sponsored by Brenda Meridith of Winchendon, Massachusetts, 978-297-1820).

In honor of She's Funny That Way Day I will now list those who make me laugh...

But before I do that there are some that I laugh at and others that make me laugh because they are funny, girlfriend (said in a nice southern drawl). Please note the difference.

1. my sister, I totally laugh at her sometimes but most times she is just downright funny. Her blog cracks me up and the predicaments she gets herself into .... oh I just can't go on... somehow though she always comes out smelling like roses. I kid you not.
2. my youngest child, she doesn't need words to crack me up. It is her expressions that get me. All she has to do is flash those expressive eyes and it is all I can do not to laugh, particularly when I am trying to scold her. The night before Easter my husband was trying to get her to put her pajamas on and she wouldn't go and wouldn't go. So he threatened to call the Easter bunny and tell him not to come. Well, she took off like a bullet up the stairs. She gets halfway up and then comes back down and pops her head in the kitchen again and says, "you can't call him. You don't know his number!" And then runs back up the stairs.
3. Nicole. She is just so funny and well you just have to read her blog!
4. My old college roommate, Zebrafeet. She and I disagree on most things political and well, I just have to laugh. She is a great friend and I love her.
5. The "Yarn Harlet". There are times where I read her blog and laugh so hard I am crying and can't breathe. Even if you are not a knitter I think you will find her blog very entertaining.
6. Hilary Clinton. Yes, this one I laugh at! I just don't understand her sometimes, no, at all. There is just so much here, I don't know where to start. Why did she stay with Bill after the Lewinsky thing? (yes I am sure it was "political", but come one women, we would have kicked his you know what to the curb a long time ago) What was that crying thing in the pastry shop interview/speech a couple months ago? No one really believed it. Why ..... oh I just can't go on.
7. Rosie O'Donnell. I used to think she was funny and I laughed for entertainment, but in the last couple years she has just gotten weird.
8. my neighbor, she cracks me up. She is super anal about everything. Wants to be perfect and ends up being controlling in the process. We all laugh at her in our women's group. And she takes it in jest. She just can't stop and we love her for it.
9. I would be remiss if I didn't include myself in this list. ME! I make me laugh. I crack myself up in the most inopertune times. Usually it is a thought, other times it is because of something I have done or said. And...



Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be
amused.

A giggle for a Friday

I was just reading a favorite blog and thought that I might remind my readers that there are others out there besides my wonderful blog.

Check this one out if you haven't already ventured over there...

I love this guy. I think he must be my same age because I can relate to most every entry he writes. He just makes me laugh out loud.

And we all know that laughing is like exercise for your insides.
