This Day.....

If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment
If you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him,
If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,


Then you are Probably the Family Dog

The Old Tarf said...

Your welcome Daisy. I guess that is the point not to take things so serious. Especially at first glance.

haha I didn't expect the dog at the end. Great.

I do always wonder though how dogs and cats can bear to eat the same boring old pet food every day.

The Old Tarf said...

RB=they get treats from us. So it makes up for it.

trubes- i reposted my email on your waltz post for you.

I would only get it in squeaks and whistles if I asked the Mermaid for your email or even Penguin.

Hey there Tarf! I love this! It is so not me.

I start the day with caffeine,
Need my pep pills (Bachs herbal remedy)
Moan about my aches and Pains
Bore people
Grumble about my tomato soup habit
Demand time from other people
Resent people blaming me for things that are not my fault
Get frustrated with stupid people
I dont have rich friends, so that one's out
I love my medication
Dont drink, so that's out
Need drugs.

I am definitely NOT the family dog!

I love humour as well. It's important to start the day off with a really good laugh.

BigGirlsBlouse said...

That's it, you guys are on drugs aren't you?

The Old Tarf said...

biggirlsblouse- YES.

I've had 'one of those days' where everything seems to have gone wrong & up until reading this post, I was a quietly angry wench.

Thank you for making me smile :-)
