I visit Instagram about as often as I visit Facebook… maybe a little less. Over the past week or so I’ve noticed this dude recording himself telling a joke — every day a new joke video. He’s a little younger than I am (I don’t know how much) and is married to a gal that used to do my hair.
These videos of him are a closeup of his face looking at the camera and telling a short joke. I don’t laugh.
But then, I found his wife sharing videos of herself too!
I know her (him not so much), and she never struck me as one to engage in this manner. Not that there’s anything wrong with anyone doing it — I guess I just thought she’d be one of the people that never went online except to listen to a church service when she couldn’t attend. But there she was! Live and onstage for the masses. And what she shared was a whole lot better than her husband’s jokes!!
Ornaments made from the glasses of dead people!
Yah, yah, it sounds morbid — but I thought it was a pretty cool idea. After losing both parents and wanting to enjoy happy memories of them during the holiday season, she converted their glasses into ornaments. It sounds easy.
- Paint the lenses white
- Add a few snowmen (women) details like carrots noses and coal for eyes, mouth and buttons
- Tie the earpieces back with ribbon to make a bow in front
- Add a skinny ribbon for hanging
I wonder if Mom has a pair of Nanny’s glasses somewhere. The challenge here… as you’ve probably guessed… is that most people who wear glasses all the time are buried with them on their face.
It’s been a rough week…
Even though the past week (or three actually) have been a struggle – I’m finally getting used to the dance party lights on my dining room tree. I love the reflection on the windows from the inside tree as the outside lights filter in their glow.
TIL (Today I Learned): The reason you can see corn in poop is because corn kernels are coated in cellulose, which is strong enough to withstand the rigors of the human digestive system.
