I got this in my email today and had a good laugh. For any of you with kids, you’ll know exactly what I mean. This is kindergarten child’s drawing of a pair of scissors. Would you post this on your refrigerator for very long?

Ever notice that

Sometimes…

when you cry…

no one sees your tears.

Sometimes…

when you are in pain…

no one sees your hurt.

Sometimes…

when you are worried..

no one sees your stress.

Sometimes…

when you are happy..

no one sees your smile.

But…

Let just ONE tiny little fart in the grocery store and EVERYone notices!

Life’s funny that way.

I was strolling around the net as many people do and tripped over a site that has the funniest cards. If you have a sarcastic nature (as I sometimes do) then this site is for you. I have NO interest in this site and it’s NOT a paid advertisement. I just thought it was funny.

Ok, it’s silly — all the cards are but they cracked me up. Maybe I should have been sleeping instead of surfing?

A friend of mine sent this to me today. It cracked me up! Tell me you all didn’t wonder about these when you were little!!

THE GOOD NAPKINS… ahhhhh… the joys of having Girls…

My mother taught me to read when I was four years old (her first mistake). One day, I was in the bathroom and noticed one of the cabinet doors was ajar.

I read the box in the cabinet. I then asked my mother why she was keeping ‘napkins’ in the bathroom. Didn’t they belong in the kitchen?

Not wanting to burden me with unnecessary facts, she told me that those were for ’special occasions’ (her second mistake).

Now fast forward a few months…. It’s Thanksgiving Day, and my folks are leaving to pick up my uncle and his wife for dinner. Mom had assignments for all of us while they were gone.

Mine was to set the table.

When they returned, my uncle came in first and immediately burst into laughter. Next came his wife who gasped, then began giggling. Next came my father, who roared with laughter.

Then came Mom, who almost died of embarrassment when she saw each place setting on the table with a ’special occasion’ Kotex napkin at each plate, with the fork carefully arranged on top. I had even tucked the little tail in so they didn’t hang off the edge!!

My mother asked me why I used these and, of course, my response sent the other adults into further fits of laughter.

‘But, Mom, you said they were for special occasions!!!’

Isn’t it easier to just tell the truth?! ????????

Pass this on to your girlfriends who need a good laugh. !
