BW Ladies here is how to make a point
If your husband nags you about the extras you do, let him read this.
A woman was walking down the street when she was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby looking homeless woman who asked her for a couple of dollars for dinner. The woman took out her wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some wine with it instead of dinner?" "No," I had to stop drinking years ago, the homeless woman replied. "Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" the woman asked. "No," I don't waste time shopping, the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive." "Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?" the woman asked. "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!" "Well," said the woman, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my husband and myself tonight. The homeless Woman was astounded. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting." The woman replied, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments and wine." |

That reminded me of this one. Same idea. One afternoon a man came home from work to find total mayhem in his house. His three children were outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard. The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house. Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug was wadded against one wall. In the front room, the TV was loudly blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door. He ran up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened. He found her lounging in the bedroom, still curled up in the bed, still in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?" She again smiled and answered, "You know every day when you come home from work and ask me what in the world I did today?" "Yes," was his incredulous reply, half shouting. The smile remained, "Well, today I didn't do it." |

When my kids were small, I always wished I had the nerve to NOT do something
for a couple of days just to show my husband. Never did though, he could yell louder than I wanted to listen. "Stormmee" wrote in message ... excellent, Lee "LadyJane" wrote in message ...

i agree with all of that except the complaints about the food on offer,
sometimes Trudi jumps up to look in the bowl and positively growls at it... Chester meanwhile always looks in the bucket while i am getting out the food because he just knows one of these days it will be a different flavor... "hopitus" wrote in message ...

That's about enough. For now. |

Quite pointedly, too. leave whiskers in the bathroom sink. Actually... sometimes they do. And also on the floor, the couch, etc. Granted, I usually enjoy finding a kitty whisker in a random place, and I usually save them. Because, you know, someday I'm going to "make something" with them. flip beer bottle caps all over the kitchen. Well, I don't drink much, so not many beer bottle caps in my kitchen. If there was one, though, you can bet they would be batting it all over the place! change your selected fave songs on the pushbutton thingy on the dash of *your* car. OK, you got me on that one. However, they have managed to reset my bedside clock on a number of occasions. ride motorcycles sans helmet. Sometimes I feel like *I* need a helmet around these guys. ride motorcycles, period. They don't need motorcycles - they have The Zoomies! Who needs kids? I have cats! -- Joyce ^..^ To email me, remove the XXX from my user name. |

Cleaning is one of those chores that is never noticed unless it's *not* done. (I was saying the same thing to the IT guy at my job the other day, because I believe it's also true for them. Nobody notices the network or the people who maintain it, until it stops working. I'm sure Cheryl (jlhshadow) will agree. ) -- Joyce ^..^ To email me, remove the XXX from my user name. |

That's about enough. For now. ROFL. My cats peer into the bucket too. No doubt hoping for a whole turkey in there.....or maybe cheese. They love cheese, prefer imported. All the better if I'm eating it. |
