Jolly Monday Served With Laughs

Good (?) Monday morn, dear friends, and WELCOME!  It’s always so good to see you on Monday morning … it somehow helps start the week out right, y’know?  I’m in just a bit of a funk this morning, so hopefully spending time with you guys and finding a bit of humour here and there will help.  But first, let’s go see what Joyful has cooked up for us today … I know I smell bacon!!!

I weally hope you guys enjoy what I made for you!!!


Wow, Joyful … that is a LOT of bacon!!!  Larry, Emily, David and the others should be able to get their fill of bacon today!  And now, let’s start with some phunny puns, compliments of Punny Phil!


And how ‘bout a few music memes ‘n puns?


Okay … onto the cartoons, then!


And just a handful of fun memes


And of course if it’s Jolly Monday, there MUST be a cute or funny animal video, yes?


Well, my friends, it seems our time together is always too short, but we have enjoyed it immensely and I love the beautiful smiles I see on your faces!  Please remember to share those smiles as you go about your week, for there are an awful lot of people out there who really, really need one!  Keep safe and have a wonderful week ahead!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly ‘n Joyful!

Jolly 1st Of May Monday!!!

Good Monday morn, my friends!  It’s hard to believe it’s already May!  Where did the first four months of the year go?  It was just Christmas a couple of weeks ago, wasn’t it?  I hope your weekend was everything you hoped it would be and more!  That said, isn’t it great to get back to work, back into the routine and not have to be bothered trying to figure out what to do next?  Yes, I’ve lost my bloody mind!  Anyway, a simple fare on the table today, but never fear … there’s plenty of bacon for those bacon-lovers among you!  Let’s go grab a bite and then find a way to make this Monday morning special!


Every so often we come across some sock humour, and this is one such ‘so often’ …


And, we’ve been collecting an array of funny signs over the past couple of weeks …


Just a few music puns …


And now, for the main course, the ‘TOONS!


And a few memes to round out the humour …


That only leaves one more thing … a cute or funny animal video!  I sent Jolly on a mission to find one yesterday, so let’s see what he came up with …


Well, friends, sadly the time has come for us all to get on with the business of the day.  Jolly, Joyful and I have really enjoyed your visit today, and we hope you’re leaving with a smile on your face!  Be sure to grab a few extra smiles on your way out so that you’ll have plenty to share this week!  Keep safe and have a happy week ahead!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly & Joyful!

Jolly Funday Monday!

Good Monday morning, dear friends!  Looks like it’s gonna be another weird weather week for us here in the U.S. with more heavy snow forecast in the west and more severe storms here on the eastern half of the nation.  yippee.  Since Easter is next Sunday, I think Joyful has cooked up some Easter delicacies for your snacking pleasure this morning!  So, grab a snack and let’s find some fun stuff to bring us a smile in spite of the weather!


Jolly is so proud of the music puns he’s been collecting that he wanted those to go first …


And we’ve got some new funny signs to give you a chuckle …


This guy should be on a major league team!!!


So … are you ready for some ‘toons???


Here are just a few Easter-themed ‘toons from years past …


And let’s finish with a cute animal video.  This one is at the same time heartbreaking and heartwarming to watch as a human saves a dog who had been in a bit of a scuffle with a porcupine and come out on the losing end.  Found in pain the dog is rescued and ultimately finds his forever home!


Well, my friends, we hate to see you go, but we know you have lots to do this week.  We hope you enjoyed your time here and are leaving with a smile on your face.  Keep safe, have a happy week ahead, and remember to share as many smiles as you can this week!

Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly, and Joyful!

Jolly Ice Cream Monday!

Good Monday morning once again, friends!  Did you all have a wonderfully relaxing weekend?  Have you noticed that the weekends seem to be shorter these days?  Maybe because for a while there, during November, December, and January, there were so many holiday extended weekends and we’re not used to just two days.  But alas, it is Monday now, time to start a fresh new week with new challenges to combat!  Apart from a frigid start, with temps well below zero from Christmas thru New Years, it has been unseasonably warm here, even reaching 68° last Wednesday, and predicted to do the same later this week.  So, in honour of a summery winter, Joyful and I thought it would be a good time to have an ice cream party!  So, head over to the table and grab a treat, then we’ll find some fun to start the week off!


Let’s start with just a few puns …


We always have fun with the music puns …


You wanna see all the funny ‘toons I found over at Phil’s Phun?


And now for today’s funny, cute critter video … who knew that birds had such a great sense of rhythm???


Well, friends, we’ve really enjoyed our time together this morning and hope you have, too!  I see some beautiful smiles on your faces and I hope they can last throughout the week.  Be sure to share them … sharing a smile doesn’t cost a thing, and sometimes it means so much!  Keep safe and have a great week ahead!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly ‘n Joyful!

Jolly ‘N Joyful Take Over

Hello fwiends!  Jolly Monday dis week is brought to you by me ‘n Joyful, ’cause Gwammie is in a wabbit hole and Uncle David is workin’ on gettin’ her out, but we couldn’t let you start da week without some laughs, so we did the best we could without her!  Joyful was busy helpin’ me wid da ‘toons ‘n stuff, so we just picked up some donuts for da mornin’ snack … I hope dat’s okay.  So, go get a donut an’ a coffee and come see what fun stuff we found for you!


While Jolly was off finding ‘toons, I went in search of some music puns, and here’s what I found!


And now for some ‘toons to make you laugh!


An’ here’s a few memes, too!


And we found a cute cwitter video wif a bear cub pwayin’ wif some lion cubs … it’s short, but we hope it makes you smile!


Well, fwiends, we hope you enjoyed our limited, gwammie-less Jolly Monday, and we pwomise to get Gwammie out o’ da wabbit hole before next Monday!  Love ‘n hugs from Jolly ‘n Joyful (and Gwammie, aka Filosofa)!

Jolly Ho-Ho-Ho Monday

Good Monday morning dear friends!  Come in out of the c-c-cold and warm yourselves by the {imaginary} fireplace!  I suppose you’re all pretty well exhausted from a busy weekend of shopping, baking, partying, etc?  Me?  I stayed home all weekend … what shopping I’ve done has been online, I don’t do parties, and Miss Goose has taken over the baking chores this season, leaving me free to read, snooze, write my blog, and snooze some more.  I’ll be happy, though, when the holidays are over … I just seem to be lacking the joy, the spirit, this year.  Anyway, Joyful has cooked up some treats for you, so grab a snack and let’s go in search of something to put a smile on your faces!



Let’s start with just a few music puns …


And on to the ‘TOONS!!!


And some memes Jolly found …


Well, it feels like it’s about time for a cute/funny critter video to round out the morning.  I love watching penguins … something about just watching them walk and interact always brings a chuckle …


Well, friends, the time has come to say adieu, though we’re sad to see you go.  We hope you found something to lighten your mood on this c-c-cold Monday morn, and that you will share those beautiful smiles with others who cross your path this week!  Keep safe and have a great week ahead!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly and Joyful!


Jolly Turkey Day Monday

Well, well, well … here it is Monday yet again!  Where does the time go?  I hope you all had a peaceful weekend.  Our friends in western New York got up to 77 inches of snow in some places, and I heard from at least one who had been out shoveling and not enjoying it much!  We had frigid temperatures, and a bit of snow earlier in the week, but the weekend was dry … and c-c-cold!  Since Thursday is Thanksgiving here in the U.S. — the wrong one, according to my Canadian friends — Joyful and I decided to cook you up a Thanksgiving feast this morning!  So, go grab a plate and we’ll go digging for some jolly stuff to start the week with a smile.


Jolly found us a few new Thanksgiving-related cartoons while I dug back through the archives and dug up a few ‘oldies but goodies’ …


We’ve been collecting just a few music puns …


And to wrap up Jolly Monday, naturally we must have a cute animal video, right?  I love watching the squirrels and the birds in our back yard in the mornings … we feed the squirrels mostly peanuts in the shell, and a mix of bird seed for the birds.  The squirrels are ingrates, because no matter how much we feed them out back, they still eat our flower seeds when we plant them in the spring!  They dig ’em right up out of the ground!  Anyway, I do enjoy watching the squirrels, and they enjoy taunting the kitties, knowing that the kitties cannot get out through the window!  So, here’s a really cute squirrel that found what appears to be his forever home!


And now, my friends, it’s that time again where we must all get this week started.  I hope you’ve found some smiles here this morning, and to my U.S. friends, I wish you the happiest Thanksgiving on Thursday!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly and Joyful!

Jolly “Fat Bear” Monday!

Good Monday morning, friends!  I hope you all had a relaxing and peaceful weekend and that you’re ready to face another week!  Mine was good … nothing exciting, but then these days I prefer ‘normal’ to ‘exciting’ anyway.  Joyful has been cooking up something in the kitchen this morning, so let’s grab a snack and go in search of some fun to bring smiles to start the week on the right foot … or the left foot … either one is good.


This is the 6th day in Fat Bear Week, which runs from October 5th thru October 11th.  Seems a bit odd to me that the week is from Wednesday thru Tuesday, but I guess perhaps bears have a different calendar than humans do!  If you want to know more about Fat Bear week, check out my post in 2018, or this article about this year’s contest.


Sock gone AWOL …

You know about those socks that sometimes go AWOL in the dryer, right?  They’ve been the brunt of jokes and the frustration of people for ages.  I found the solution long ago … all of my socks are the same colour (white) and the same brand, so there’s never a stray without a mate. Anyway … over at Phil’s Phun last week, there was a feature about those pesky stray socks and we found some humorous bits …


I always enjoy the music puns, though sometimes it takes me a while to figure them out …


And Jolly found us bunches of ‘toons this week …


Just a few memes we found funny or weird


And last, but never least, we cannot say farewell on a Monday without sharing a cute animal video!  I think you’re really gonna love this one!


We really hope that you’ve all enjoyed your visit on this Jolly Monday and that you’re leaving with a smile on your face and one in your heart as well.  Have a great week, and remember to share those beautiful smiles!  Love ‘n hugs from Filosofa, Jolly ‘n Joyful!

Jolly Autumnal Monday

Good Monday morning, friends, Romans, countrymen!  Oh wait … do you sometimes waken in the morning and have to take a few minutes to figure out who you are, where you are, and what you’re doing here?  I think I’m not quite awake yet … happens a lot as I’ve gotten older!  Anyway, I am quite certain of the fact that today is Monday, the first one of autumn, and the last one in September.  See, I haven’t completely lost my mental acuity.  Joyful is off visiting ‘Uncle Woger’ today, and since Jolly isn’t allowed in the kitchen, I sent him out for donuts ‘n coffee for our morning snack.  No bacon today … sorry guys!  So grab a snack and then we’ve got some fun stuff for your Monday morning chuckles!

Dere’s more in da kitchen if you need more … just ask


How ’bout we start off with some music puns from over at Phil’s Phun?


And some funny signs …


And your favourite part of Jolly Monday … ‘TOONS!!!


Perhaps a few memes would be good for some laughs …


Well, my friends … NO GWAMMIE … You’s forgettin’ da animal video!!!

Oops!  You’re right … thanks for reminding me, Jolly!  What would Jolly Monday be without the cute critter video!!!  We thought you might enjoy seeing some baby lions this morning!


And now, friends, it’s time to get into gear and make this a great week!  We hope you found a few smiles and chuckles here this morning and we hope you have a safe and happy week ahead!  Please remember our friends in Florida who are battening down the hatches in preparation for Hurricane Ian that is expected soon.  Take care, Mary, Larry, Horty, Scottie and all our Floridian friends, and let us know you’re okay when you can.  We will be thinking of you.  Love ‘n hugs to all from Filosofa, Jolly and Joyful!
