Well can;t say I've been laying down and saying "Can't do anything, I've had a T.I.A. (Transient Ischemic Attack).
Front entrance gate was in need of a bit of repairs, etc, plus a re-paint and the garden pond was in urgent need of a clean out and refilling so I can transfer the fish and water snails from my aquarium back in to it.
Stared on the gate over-haul on last Friday, finished it completely yesterday ( Monday) and re-hung it after giving it a new paint job, re-painted and re-wrote my fun sign late yesterday and this morning and then added it to the gate.
Kind of sorely tempted to hand-paint a copy of the " I chews Jesus" pic below and add it to the fence somewhere in the next week or so.
Most likely will cop some comments, adverse ones from Evangelidiot, but will more than likely get a few ones of encouragement and congrats from the rest of the neighbours, especially the Lesbian couple who have moved in to a house 3 doors up from mine.
They told me that Evangelidiot has been "dumping" hand-written copies of bible passages on their front porch ever since he discovered they were Lesbians.
How fucking sick in the head can he get, they are NOT harming anyone at all, they are kind and friendly towards everyone and because of religious bullshit he has to treat them like they have a communicable disease or something.
A TIA is a warning, take it easy for a bit partner. I love your sign and the dinosaur meme, but stay healthy, we need all the committed atheists we can get, we can't afford to lose any!
Hey, you are PREACHING to the Choir here in case you did NOT know.
Fyi, they DID teach us a whole lot more than merely making beds, taking temperatures, emptying bed-pans and those kinds of things when I was a NURSE way back from 1972 until 1976 and then changed direction and became a Mid-wife, YES, your eyes are NOT deceiving you, a MALE Mid-wife with a a tally of assisting 167 babies into this world as well.
So, please, ask questions regarding Health, Anatomy, etc, etc.
@zeuser Simple, you either buy the cheapest kind and they do you very little good OR you buy the good and recommended kind that might well cost you quite a bit more but are well worth it in the long run.
As the saying goes, " Your wallet, your money and your Health and comfort, the choice IS all YOURS."
I chews Jesus sounds like a good idea. On the other hand you can always kneel down at a wooden thing they call an alter and pretend to eat Jesus flesh and drink his blood every week or every month. Nice association, huh. Now go back in history to a time that if you vanquished an enemy you might do the same. Wow! God really had a good plan didn't he.
A mini stroke! Have you seen a doctor? How are you now? Are you being treated?
Of course he has, he's written several times about his progress.
@Lilac-JadeCanada Not about today.
@Betty He was talking about the work he's done today despite having the TIA before.
It's quite okay @Betty, I am up and about reasonably well these days. T.I.A. ( Transient Ischemic Attack) was diagnosed by the Specialist at our local hospital on Feb. 14th. have all the movement back in my right side which was affected, residual weakness in right leg, knee and ankle especially both from the T.I.A. and the Fractured Right Femur, Right Ankle and Knee from an M.V.A. in December 1973.
@Lilac-JadeCanada I get it now.
@Lilac-JadeCanada, @Triphid You scared me. You put it in the first sentence and I thought the worst.
I like your pictures. You've done a lot of work and it looks lovely. The signs are hilarious. The dinosaur, oh the dinosaur. I love it. Do you get a lot of comments about them?
@Triphid So glad to hear this positive news about your health.
@Betty Haven't started the " Dinosaur and Jeebus one as yet but it is definitely in the pipeline for another adornment for my front fence.
Had the 2 ladies, the same sex couple btw, approach me late yesterday and we discussed the grief that Evangelidiot was giving them, then they OFFERED to pay me what ever price I asked to paint for them a sign like the one on my gate.
They darn near caused a flood in my loungeroom when I told them that if they supply the piece of cement sheeting cut to the size they would require then I'd do their sign for them FREE of charge and even help them to hang it securely and solidly on their front fence as well.
Dang, never ever been hugged and kissed by Lesbians before but it was an experience well worth having.
@Betty I guess you may also like my mural around my front door, I'll add a photo later but it is my rendition of a shark with it its mouth wide open and you walk through it to enter the house.
Originally I had painted it on the front fence but it actually managed to cause 2 car accidents in the space of 1 week where both drivers, separate occasions of course, became distracted, swerved the wheel and collided with a power pole.
No-one was injured thankfully but the Police asked, very nicely and apologetically, IF I would paint over it, which I did.
@Redheadedgammy Thank you, much appreciated as well.
