I though it would be very interesting to talk about what we learn each day.





I learned today how to put concrete crack sealer on my driveway to cover in holes and cracks so I don't have to get the driveway re-concreted.

It looked easy enough.

As I did each crack or hole, I realized I had to go back and keep refilling them, over and over and over again. They were full when I started, but as a short time went by, the sealant then sunk right down to the bottom.

huh!

Not today, but this weekend I learned some new tricks and how to 2 ball juggle.

I learned not to toss bad tomatos into the air and shoot them if the wind is blowing TOWARDS you.:-5

Hey Bruv......now I really really understand how you feel.:rolleyes:

I learned that it's all too easy to miss what someone is trying to tell you!

I really need to listen carefully.

I should know better :-5

I could teach you something more about crack sealing so the sealer doesn't keep running away.

Next time if possible partially fill the void with fibre board or even old newspaper to stop the valuable sealer seeping away.

I learned not to trust a cashier who has no idea what she is doing.:rolleyes:

Took back an item for refund...



I asked her for my refund slip to my instant card....she said she had to keep it?

she never asked me to sign the paper to say why I was bringing it back?

she never did refund my money.

just found that out now as I went to my on-line banking!:-5:-5

she charged me for it!:-5

phoned the store, head cashier said she was brought over from another store and she doesn't know what's she doing. I said, then maybe she shouldn't be on cash!:mad:

now I have to go back there get the refund she just charged me for and the original refund.:rolleyes:

I learned that the great big five pound bag of coffee that I bought and thought was ground coffee turned out to be coffee beans. Ah well, fresh ground beans are better anyway.

How to make a documentary.

I learned today that just because the sky is cloudy, doesn't mean it's going to rain.

really? good for you babe!

To always see the shades of gray, NOTHING is black and white.

I learned that wheelchairs hurt when they run into you. I learned that when I was evacuating from a fire alarm.

I learnt that when you pick up your dogs poop in the field, it's not always theirs.

Note to self:.... Do not take take eyes off dog when she is having a poop.

I reaffirmed as fact that my body no longer bends.

At all.

I learned to check behind the lounge door for cat poop before opening the door.

For a long time I thought I was the crazy one but I dont think so anymore. I think its you.

I learned today that you don't have to click on File and New Tab to open up a new tab. All you have to do is double click on the top tab tool bar and it automatically opens up a new tab for you. (My daughter taught me that).

I also learned that when the dentist looks sheepish and says "You shouldn't get an infection" what he REALLY means is OF COURSE it will get infected! Expect LOTS of pain!

I ALSO learned that the doctors receptionist will REFUSE to give you an appointment to see the doctor if it's related to dental treatment. She will INSIST you return to the dentist, even when you're crying out in agony for painkillers! Miserable b*tch! She'd rather maul your ankles like a rabid dog than give you the dratted appointment! :-5

I learned when toddlers reach a certain age and you pick 'em up, their damn little feet are right in line with your "boys".:yh_cry

I learned Ibuprofen is not made from paracetamol.

When you're eating painkillers by the boxful, it's good to know you're allowed more ibuprofen on top of your paracetamol allowance. I'm still taking too many but I'm not as over the limit as I thought I was!

ask your doctor for a prescription for anti-inflammatories.

ibuprofen does nothing.

Not too much. In fact Im certain I lost info I once knew.

Nothing I learn seems new, so I must know everything.:yh_glasse

I learned on Wednesday that you never take things for granted.:-5

I learned today that there really are some kind people in this world

That all 4 of my essays are due in January.

That even things that seem a certainty are not.

Yes, and I was required to have my old professor write a note to my principal, that I was doing research for the Native Americans and not myself! A note!

But, it will be cool if I find what they need tomorrow, then when what the stuff is for is over, I will post on it. It will be more than cool.

I learned never to trust a man with horns.:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

After my friend died, I learned not to take life for granted , that every moment is special, even the bad ones because our lives here on earth are only for a limited period of time, and when we have free time, we should try to spend it with loved ones, because you never know if you or them will have another tommorrow.

So, when we're thinking about doing something, like make a call, visit a friend, send a letter, wish someone Happy Birthday, we've got to do it now.

Chess is a wonderful game. The only way to get better at it is to play often and have a worthy opponent.

never take your car for granted.
