Funny Shit

The second part to the great bathroom renovation was our little toilet closet.  Quite the norm by European standards but it freaked me out for the first while I was here.   It literally is a closet just big enough for me and my toilet. The weirdest thing for me in the beginning was the toilet shelf.  If you’ve never been …

I recently finished reading this book, and I loved it.   When I was in the south of France a few months ago my brother-in-law gave it to me to read because he loved it as well.  He had spent some time in South Africa and picked it up while he was there. I’m sure it brings back memories of things …

Have you ever just wished someone would shut the hell up? (I wonder how many of you thought ‘yeah you!’ when I said that haha) Anyhow, today I realized that Bailey is smarter than all of us.   While playing with Pixel on my footstool I guess he got sick of her because this was the result.

My brother in law mailed me this video and told me I absolutely MUST put it on my blog!   I have to agree with him, it’s hilarious and doesn’t really surprise me at all, it’s the Dutch humor. I know the video is all in Dutch but basically it’s at a store called Hema (which is sort of K-Mart or …

I just stumbled upon the video of this bird.  It almost makes me want one! – almost. How friggin cute!!

This morning Xander sent me a link to a funny video on YouTube. I love this for so may reasons… Firstly, it’s got the big dude from Shaun of the Dead, which is such a great movie.

My husband found this drawing on the Internet somewhere and we both laughed our asses off.   I shit you not, we have actually had this exact conversation. Honestly, it’s like a day in the life of the Soldaats right there…
