  • Just stole this from the families board - I thought it was hilarious!


    A man was leaving a convenience store with his morning coffee when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery.

    A long black hearse was followed by a second long black hearse about 50 feet behind the first one.

    Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a dog on a leash.

    Behind him, a short distance back, were about 200 men walking single file.

    The man couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached the man walking the dog and said, 'I am so sorry for your loss, and this may be a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this.
    Whose funeral is it?'

    'My wife's.

    ''What happened to her?'

    The man replied, 'My dog attacked and killed her'

    He inquired further, 'But who is in the second hearse?'

    The man answered, 'My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her.'

    A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two men.

    'Can I borrow the dog?'

    The man replied, 'Get in line.'

    Just a little rounding down PaD for me today, have been catching up on the last few days housework, reading flylady stuff to give myself a boost.

    So a little PaD of £1.20 please SN

    Someone mentioned SAD a few days ago, and I think there may be something in it, but just to get a bit philosophical for a mo' have been in contact on FB with an ex colleague and she is so positive in adversity it makes me feel ashamed about getting stressed about a bit of debt.

    This is what she has put on her profile today..

    Finding out hopefully today if I can go out of here for a week or two on tiesday or wednesday before the surgery to amputate my leg:eek:
