NOW I'm heading to bed....sorta.
Nite, BG.
Hope to see you tomorrow. Have a Terrific Tuesday.
A man is in bed with his wife when there is a rat-a-tat-tat on the door. He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it's half past three in the morning. "I'm not getting out of bed at this time," he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows.
"Aren't you going to answer that?" says his wife.
So he drags himself out of bed and goes downstairs. He opens the door and there is man standing at the door. It didn't take the homeowner long to realize the man was drunk.
"Hi there," slurs the stranger. "Can you give me a push?"
"No, get lost. It's half past three. I was in bed," says the man and slams the door. He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she says,
"Dave, that wasn't very nice of you. Remember that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby sitter and you had to knock on that man's house to get us started again? What would have happened if he'd told us to get lost?"
"But the guy was drunk," says the husband.
"It doesn't matter," says the wife. "He needs our help and it would be the Christian thing to help him."
So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs. He opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he shouts, "Hey, do you still want a push?"
And he hears a voice cry out, "Yeah, please."
So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts, "Where are you?"
And the stranger replies, "I'm over here, on your swing."
Thank you, MB.
I have the two greatest graphic artists on call. :)
Thank you so much for the sweet pledge graphic; And thank you for adding PrissyMissy. :)
I love those quotes. Thank you for posting them.
Yes ... the picture was taken at the Fondue place. I've forgotten the name but it was a fun place and PrissyMissy had a ball there.
The pledge with all the children is sooo sweet and of course when you added PrissyMissy, you made it my favorite. :)

PS: Took a trip back in time with your pictures of the "Cruise to Nowwhere". Are you going on the upcoming cruise?
Aloha Amy. Sorry I haven't been around for awhile. I just got back from Taiwan and those people there truly love Americans and really treat us nice. I have been busy but still look in on you and the gang to see what is going on. Hope all is well with the friends here. Good to be home. Now I have to dig up some carpentry to get back in the black again. LOL.
Sigh, no, maybe next year. I have so many projects in the fire right now. Can't wait to hear what Leni has to say about the trip and Doughty One and gosh everyone.
Why haven't I gone to bed yet? It's 4:15 am. Oh well, it's Tuesday and no plans, guess I'll just sleep in - that is if the dog will let me!!!!!
What are you planning for your big day? Party, Party?
