Funny stuff: Adopting Dogs to Lost in a Maze to the Lennon Sisters

 Some funny photos. Some clever. Some cute puppies.


 I adopted Bounce from a shelter. He was so cute right from day one. He is a teenager now, age 13.


 
Above is a photo of the tile stairs of a restaurant I like. In fact I was there with two friends who treated me to a birthday lunch recently.


 Above is a photo I took before I threw these items out. Who is old enough to know what these are? I am 80 so yes I know.


 I've not been a big fan of the Lennon Sisters but I saw this photo of them and the third one from the left could be my twin! At about age 10. I think the resemblance is amazing. Have a great week!

Happy belated birthday! Those stairs are beautiful.

All our cats came not from a shelter, but from outside... some ferals, some just showed up. The tile on those stairs would give me a migraine... (ha!)
And as for those floppy disks, etc. I will be 80 in July... and yes, I know what those things are... have quite a few of them that I don't want to throw out until I find out what's on them. Recently my son gave me something that will read them.

I know what those things are!
Now you have to share a photo of yourself at 10 so we can compare,

Hi, Terra! Yes, I knew what those items were. I enjoyed your memes, too. Blessings!

I remember hearing them on Lawrence Welk and they were so cute! I love that people find homes for dogs that need one, too!

Boud said...

Yes, another old party checking in to recognize those floppies which weren't floppy, and the CD rom!

staircase with the tiles, so pretty and unique. Have a good week ahead.
Blessings, Nellie

I recently saw a joke where a teenager was shown one of the floppy disks and she said, "How cool. Someone 3-D printed the "Save" icon!" Boy I feel old.
Love the corn maze meme.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy

I'm getting rid of CDs and all sorts of dated things that will never be used again! Taking a good sized bag to the Goodwill every Tuesday! Of course, I usually go in and purchase another bag full!

Does teenage Bounce still bounce?

Barwitzki said...

...and then you also know the good old records. We still have some and a record player – it's wonderful to play them :-)))
This staircase is a real eye-catcher – I wish you many wonderful opportunities to use it.
Best wishes, Viola

Hi Terra - love the maze one ... at least there'd be corn to eat - drink ... nothing forthcoming I suspect. The stairs are fun ... so pleased you had that wonderful lunch with friends - cheers Hilary

Ann said...

That corn maze sign is too funny. Yep, I remember cd's and floppy discs.

Back2OurSmallCorner said...

Those tiles would send my head into a spin and I would probably end up in a heap at the bottom of the stairs.
We have a few of those discs but not many left now. Thank you for sharing the memories x

Retired Knitter said...

I loved the Corn Maze sign. Made me laugh right out loud. (I thank you for that because I needed a laugh.). And yes I knew the other stuff as well. The Lennon Sisters, gosh - those memories. How times have changed.

Jo-Anne's Ramblings said...

CD's and floppy disks oh yeah I remember them well

DawnTreader said...

Oh yes I recognise floppy discs... I don't think still have any, though. I've still got old photos and audio books and music and whatnot saved on CDs, though.

Cloudia said...

What a fun post! Can you sing like The Lennon sisters?

diamondc said...

Hi Terra: Love the photos, yes the CDs are still living in our home and being used, not the floppy discs though.

Hi Terra, Happy Belated Birthday. I am 68 and I do recognize these items! Thanks so much for sharing. :)

I love the corn maze notice. I wonder what today's generation will throw out when they're 80?
