Ten Random March Thoughts

 1. My wife sent me to the store to get 18, brown, happy eggs.  Now I understand the 18 and I know there are three kinds of eggs, white, brown, and Easter. But, happy eggs? I couldn't wait to meet them, what could go wrong.  I stood their in Target with the eggs and did not see any happy eggs. Am I going to have to ask, "Do you have any happy eggs?" I don't think I could do it with a straight face. I did and it's the Happy Egg Company.  As you can see the hens are happy and they have "free range."



2.  The big day was coming and I was going to finally at the age of 65 1/2 become a Car Wash Member.  My wife wanted me to buy her a membership too.  Much to my surprise she told me that every car wash has towels you can use in cans at each spot for drying your car.  I've been throwing garbage in the cans for six months on my gift membership? I went to the car wash and below is what I found, but they had just put them in and they were empty. I am now a member of a car wash, it's a big commitment.


3. Is it really fair that it is March and I've had four inches of snow here in Colorado? My sister in New Jersey has been buried in snow and my brother in Washington, DC has had more snow.  I'm sitting in front of my window watching these flurries come down.


4. At what age can you have a child pick up poop from your backyard?  Our eighteen month old granddaughter is very advanced, I think she's close to helping us with that.  She's been doing a few things around the house and we are already discussing what she can do when she's two in August.

5. Have you ever tried to put a winter hat on a round balloon.  I was trying to show my granddaughter how to do it and you really can't do it.  I think she enjoyed watching me try, let me know if you can do it.

6. My wife was dog sitting this week and I got to put my car in the garage for a whole week and I thought, this is a pretty nice thing.  I don't recall ever having my car in the garage for a week.

7. Rotisserie chicken is becoming a big thing in Montreal, Canada.  The New York Times reported that one chef said, "You know how they have the Netflix fireplace channel.  I want a rotisserie chicken channel, I would watch it for hours." Wouldn't it be fun eating one at the same time? 



8. I planned on giving my granddaughter a small piece of  St. Patrick's Day cupcake.  There was a lot of icing and she ate it all and didn't eat the actual cupcake.  You should have seen how much icing was on her face and hands! You would think I would have known that would happen, but I didn't.

9. A friend of mine in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has been teasing me about how cold it will be in Colorado and how much snow will be here now that I moved.  It's almost a year since I moved and now I'm teasing him that the temperature is in the 80's and we've had only a few inches of snow all winter.   

10. Some people are very concerned because they have a big nose or big ears or something that is very different about their physical appearance.  I just read that when Mount Rushmore was built the sculptor added an extra foot to George Washington's nose to protect against erosion.  I don't think it would bother George Washington at all, do you?
