I went for a walkie with my dog to the beach, already check it as it's so sunny and warm today already yes as i was a bit up-set about what happened yesterday and the men around me :
I know it's Sunday but i wake up early as yesterday i went to bed early too after have been here blogging happily .
Yes, men in the house went all to see the football, yesterday's evening arriving all around 11.30pm, Benfica playing with Mourinho's favourite team (from his city) Setubal, at Benfica's stadiumn.
I am a Benfica fan and i never have been at Benfica stadium They know it!
But as during the afternoon i wasn't at home no one told me,when i arrived home i got the surprise:
- dad and his friends only blought tickets for them then when i asked F. he only bought his ticket too as his friends, so no one remembered me OR my best conclusion is that men don't like women by them or around them watching football at home and seems especially in stadiumns!
It's said and now i wrote it i'm feeling much better thank you very much
Yes, so as i didn't plan nothing for last night i spent all evening and night alone, till they arrive...
...but HAHAHAHA weldone they went to see it and got a DRAW HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, well i know i should be happy if Benfica won but didn't and bcz so they all arrived home with an up-set face/look and mood
HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA That's my sweety reveange...sssshhh don't tell them but i laughed lots when dad arrived 1st. very quite, 30 minutes later arrived F. with the same up-set look so inside myself i was bursting in laughing i knew it for their faces that they got a draw or loose ...but well, was a 1-1 with Benfica scoring only in the end as usual HAHAHAHAHAAAAAA Oh i'm sorry but that's true we women love football too, so you men please remember us when you go to see a game ok?
Have a nice Sunday
Kiki

Hope you liked these ones

"The Orchid mantis (Hymenopus coronatus) is a variety of flower mantis usually found in Malaysia and Indonesia. Doesn’t the mantis pictured look just like an orchid? They hide in the flowers they resemble, waiting for other delicious insects to alight:

"FARMINGVILLE, N.Y. (UPI) -- A New York family's dog ducked below smoke and found fresh air in a bathtub drain, actions that probably saved him in a house fire, firefighters said.
Jackson, who belongs to Debbie Credidio in Farmingville, enjoys hanging in the bathroom to escape the heat -- a pleasure that may have helped the 3-year-old Newfoundland survive a fire that destroyed Credidio's house Monday, Newsday reported Tuesday.
Firefighters Vince Egbert and Edgar Trejo drew back the shower curtain and found the dog "actually sucking air out of the drainpipe, which is an old-school thing that a fireman would do," Egbert said.
-"That's what really saved him, was getting his snout as low as he could and finding the drainpipe," he told the New York newspaper.
Jackson and the Credidio family were unharmed, officials said. The cause was not known."

" POTATOES " :
An old man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his potato garden but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son Fred, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament:
- " Dear Fred,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over I know you would dig the plot for me.
Love,
Dad."

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

- " Dear Dad,
For heaven's sake, don't dig up that garden! That's where I buried the BODIES!
Love,
Fred."

At 4am the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

- " Dear Dad,
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances.
Love,
Fred."

What a SMART one eh?
He did it for his dad...with the Police help
HAHAHAHA
Have Fun and a very nice day
Ciao, KK

Here i go, with the second chapter about the Divinely Designed Churches BTW, Jesus Christ didn’t need fancy churches, but thank goodness that some people didn’t listen too well and built magnificent buildings to glorify God. Today, there are thousands of churches: some small and simple, whereas others are humongous and ornately decorated.
The churches around the world, i choosed to post, are both classic and modern in style..as on yesterday's post :

1). HAGIA SOPHIA: "Technically, Hagia Sophia (Greek for the Church of the Holy Wisdom of God) is no longer a church, it is now a museum in Istanbul, Turkey. It began its life as an early Christian church, then rebuilt as the seat of the Eastern Orthodox Church in Constantinople, then a mosque when the city fell to the Turks in 1453 before it finally became a museum.
Hagia Sophia as we know it today was completed by Byzantine Emperor Justinian I in 537. When completed, the temple was so large and richly decorated that Justinian proclaimed "Solomon, I have surpassed thee!". It remained the largest church for one thousand years after it was completed.
Hagia Sophia is one of the greatest surviving examples of Byzantine architecture, with a large central dome and interior intricately decorated with mosaics, marbles, and stone inlays. The dome, often referred to as the vault of heaven, was a new architectural feature at the time, necessitating the invention of a new pillar support system.
Today, the restoration of Hagia Sophia is a delicate balance of restoring Christian iconographic mosaics under historic Islamic art, which would have to be destroyed to reveal the work underneath.

2).St. Peter’s Basilica:" The largest religious building in the world, not to mention the center of Christianity, I suppose, belongs in this list. St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City is built over the tomb of St. Peter the Apostle, and is the largest church in the tiny country. It is truly immense: the church covers an area of 5.7 acres (2.3 ha) and has a capacity of over 60,000 people.

Before St. Peter’s Basilica as we know it was built, there was already a church there built in 324 C.E. by Emperor Constantine, the first Christian emperor of Rome. That church lasted for about 1,200 years until the crumbling structure was torn down to build the modern-day basilica. St. Peter’s Basilica was built by the who’s who of the Renaissance era: Michelangelo designed the dome, Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the main square, and Donato Bramante was the first architect of the church."
-( I, Kiki, must say that Bramante at his time was a great Master/Expert about this, and teached other great ones Great Bramante ! )

3).Notre Dame:"Notre Dame de Paris or simply Notre Dame is the quintessential example of Gothic Architecture. Construction of the church started in 1163, when Bishop Maurice de Sully decided to build a cathedral befitting his status as the bishop of Paris. Notre Dame was completed some 200 years later - one of the first European cathedrals to be built on a truly monumental scale.
(I, Kiki,'ve my own amazing photos of Notre Dame,Pars, much more beautiful ones than this one, i'l post them one day, now it's just for this post so we see how it is )
A particularly striking feature of Notre Dame are its Rose Windows - massive (at the time they were the largest windows in the world) circular stained glass windows that depict scenes from the bible.
South Rose Window of Notre Dame

Legend has it that when Notre Dame’s bell "Emmanuel" was recast in the 1600s, women threw their gold jewelry into the molten metal to give the bell its unique ring.
At the end of the 18th century, during the French Revolution, the church was ransacked, its treasures plundered and many of the statues of saints were beheaded. Notre Dame was dedicated to the Cult of Reason and then the Cult of the Supreme Being - for a while, it was even used as a barn!

In 1831, Notre Dame was made famous by Victor Hugo, who wrote "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," about Quasimodo, a hunchback bell ringer who fell in love with the Gypsy Esmeralda. The popularity of the book spurred a gothic revival in France and helped the restoration of the cathedral back to its original splendor."

OK, this needs a 3rd.chapter! Or will seems a too much long post and it isn't, so i'l post the rest on the 3rd.post today yet yes
PROMISED

..and yes it's among the WEIRDEST ones The Borneo walking stick (Phobaeticus kirbyi) can grow to up to 32 centimeters long, with another 14 centimeters if you measure the legs stretched out! But you might not see one, even if you are in Borneo and looking for them, since they closely resemble the slender tree branches they live on. But you can see it here :
