This I’ve Learned


Blog March 27, 2023

I WAS THINKING…
about all the unwanted mail I get. Most of it is either advertisement or coming after my money. Gone are the days when I never knew when I’d get a surprise letter. We all know that e-mails and texts have overshadowed personal notes. But it’s not going to stop me from sending cards (birthday, Christmas, sympathy, thank -you). It’s a feel-good thing.

JUST KIDDING
I heard the post office is replacing the “Forever” stamp with the “As Long as We’re Here” stamp.

YOU KNOW YOU’RE GETTING OLD WHEN…
People begin to recognize you from the rear, too.
Your clothes no longer fit and it’s not the clothes that need the alternations.
You think in a week or two you’ll feel better.
Your idea of a roaring good time is to enjoy it from a sitting position.

CAN YOU GUESS WHAT YEAR?

In the news: Commercial color television
New: Sports Illustrated Magazine-Snug-fitting, unbelted sheath dresses
Music: Three Coins in the Fountain – Bill Haley’s Shake, Rattle and Roll

LIFE HACKS FROM U-TUBE
(Deem reliable at your own risk)
For a streak free mirror, clean with a wet tea bag.
To make a stainless steel faucet shine, clean with baking soda on a cut lime.
To take wrinkles out of a shirt, throw in the dryer with an ice cube for one minute.
To bring out the white on tennis shoes, clean with nail polish on a cotton pad.
To remove odor from shoes, set tea bags inside overnight.

PUNCH LINES
