Another Fabulous Friday Funday, September 23

Another Fabulous Friday Funday, September 23

Ah, Fridays. What would most of us do without them? For so many, they're the end of the workweek, a chance to relax and kick off our work shoes, sit on the couch, and have a glass of wine or other spirits. We look forward to not being so structured for a couple of days. We look forward to playing, coaching, or watching sports. We spend quality time with our spouse, kids, and/or friends.聽

Fridays are great!聽

And for more than a year now I have used Fridays to remind myself and others of the gifts that laughter gives us.聽

Unwind. Relax. Enjoy.聽

Love these! Especially the very first one, that face just made me smile. Remind me not to go to DQ for a blizzard, ewww... Perfect Friday funnies, RooksSusan Rooks
Thanks for that, Franci Eugenia Hoffman! My favorites are the phone numbers (which are real, by the way), and those silly cartoons.

Yes, me too, Deb Helfrich! It looks as though someone just put the number upside down . . . but we've all had weeks that did feel that long!
I always appreciate your enjoyment and support, John Rylance!

Oh my, Paul \! Harmful if swallowed indeed! Thanks for spreading the joy today!

鈽猴笍 for them all. I agree re the comma. Perhaps it would of been better to have written "Made by" rather then "Made with Girl Scouts" My favourite is the Top Gear one, it epitomises the programme.
#2
Yes and yes, Donna-Luisa Eversley! Scary how some things get written sometimes, isn't it?
