Well I have finally gone and done it...........

I have joined Facebook.  No idea why I did, as I have no clue what so ever with what I am doing.  I figured I could maybe see photos of the nieces and nephews in Britain and keep up with what they are up too.

Honestly though I don't see the point of it all?  I would rather send an email, but I guess people would prefer using Facebook?  I am assuming there is a Facebook for Dummies page where it explains what to do?  I hope so, as I can see me spending a bit of time on that page.

There seems to be all sorts of pages and all sorts of other stuff going on.  A friend sent me an email and he said, " Facebook used to be “good” now they have to much garbage on it and your page gets filled up with people sending games/gag gifts/junk and more junk."

So I guess one thing I am asking you today, are any of you Facebook users?  What are the do's and don'ts.  What is the best thing about Facebook, and what is the worst thing about Facebook?

Dd is away on vacation at the moment, lucky duck, soaking up the sun on the beach in the Dominican, otherwise I would have bombarded her with all these questions.  Ds never goes on his Facebook page and is super busy with work, so that's why you've all been nominated to answer my questions....LOL

Tracey sent me this joke, and I had tears rolling down my face as its so funny.  This would really be me:

(there is the odd word that may not be appropriate for young eyes!! So be warned)

WOMAN'S WEEK AT THE GYM

If you read this without laughing out loud, there is

something wrong with you. This is dedicated to everyone who

ever attempted to get into a regular workout routine



Dear Diary,

For my birthday this year, I purchased a week of personal

training at the local health club.

Although I am still in great shape since being a high

school football cheerleader 43 years ago, I decided it would

be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try.

I called the club and made my reservations with a personal

trainer named Christo, who identified himself as a

26-year-old aerobics instructor and model for athletic

clothing and swim wear.

Friends seemed pleased with my enthusiasm to get started!

The club encouraged me to keep a diary to chart my

progress.

________________________________

MONDAY:

Started my day at 6:00 a.m. Tough to get out of bed, but

found it was well worth it when I arrived at the health club

to find Christo waiting for me. He is something of a Greek

god-- with blond hair, dancing eyes, and a dazzling white

smile. Woo Hoo!!

Christo gave me a tour and showed me the machines.. I

enjoyed watching the skillful way in which he conducted his

aerobics class after my workout today. Very inspiring!

Christo was encouraging as I did my sit-ups, although my

gut was already aching from holding it in the whole time he

was around... This is going to be a FANTASTIC week!!

________________________________

TUESDAY:

I drank a whole pot of coffee, but I finally made it out

the door. Christo made me lie on my back and push a heavy

iron bar into the air then he put weights on it! My legs

were a little wobbly on the treadmill, but I made the full

mile. His rewarding smile made it all worthwhile. I feel

GREAT! It's a whole new life for me.

_______________________________

WEDNESDAY:

The only way I can brush my teeth is by laying the

toothbrush on the counter and moving my mouth back and forth

over it. I believe I have a hernia in both pectorals.

Driving was OK as long as I didn't try to steer or stop. I

parked on top of a GEO in the club parking lot.

Christo was impatient with me, insisting that my screams

bothered other club members. His voice is a little too perky

for that early in the morning and when he scolds, he gets

this nasally whine that is VERY annoying.

My chest hurt when I got on the treadmill, so Christo put

me on the stair monster. Why the hell would anyone invent a

machine to simulate an activity rendered obsolete by

elevators? Christo told me it would help me get in shape and

enjoy life. He said some other shit too.

_______________________________

THURSDAY:

Asshole was waiting for me with his vampire-like teeth

exposed as his thin, cruel lips were pulled back in a full

snarl. I couldn't help being a half an hour late-- it took

me that long to tie my shoes.

He took me to work out with dumbbells. When he was not

looking, I ran and hid in the restroom. He sent some skinny

bitch to find me.

Then, as punishment, he put me on the rowing machine--

which I sank.

_________________________________

FRIDAY:

I hate that bastard Christo more than any human being has

ever hated any other human being in the history of the

world. Stupid, skinny, anemic, anorexic, little aerobic

instructor. If there was a part of my body I could move

without unbearable pain, I would beat him with it.

Christo wanted me to work on my triceps... I don't have any

triceps! And if you don't want dents in the floor, don't

hand me the damn barbells or anything that weighs more than

a sandwich..

The treadmill flung me off and I landed on a health and

nutrition teacher. Why couldn't it have been someone softer,

like the drama coach or the choir director?

________________________________

SATURDAY:

Satan left a message on my answering machine in his

grating, shrilly voice wondering why I did not show up

today. Just hearing his voice made me want to smash the

machine with my planner; however, I lacked the strength to

even use the TV remote and ended up catching eleven straight

hours of the Weather Channel..

________________________________

SUNDAY:

I'm having the Church van pick me up for services today so

I can go and thank GOD that this week is over. I will also

pray that next year my husband will choose a gift for me

that is fun-- like a root canal or a hysterectomy. I still

say if God had wanted me to bend over, he would have

sprinkled the floor with diamonds!!!
