A wife was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her husband.
Suddenly, her husband burst into the kitchen. "Careful," he said, "CAREFUL! Put in some more butter!
Oh my GOD! You're cooking too many at once.
TOO MANY! Turn them! TURN THEM NOW We need more butter
. Oh my GOD! WHERE are we going to get MORE BUTTER? They're going to STICK! Careful ... CAREFUL!
I said be CAREFUL! You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking!
Never! Turn them! Hurry up! Are you CRAZY? Have you LOST your mind?
Don't forget to salt them. You know you always forget to salt them. Use the salt. USE THE SALT! THE SALT!" The wife stared at him.
"What in the world is wrong with you? You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?"
The husband calmly replied, "I wanted to show you what it feels like when I m driving."
You have to LOVE this one!!(laughing) does it remind you of some one???
I don't THINK I am that bad!! And I am not going to ask!!

Good evening to every one.... sorry I have not been here lately,, things have not been good with me.
But I guess I should be happy to be here today as yesterday was my 71 st birthday. So I have out lived my Mother and Father, not my Grandmother, who lived to be 98 years old!!!
As an older person and lived all these years , I would like to say to all you gals out there who ,never had any children... do not feel bad, Please,, you are probably the lucky ones.
Motherhood is not always what it is cracked up to be.. trust me on this one!
Do I sound bitter?? Well, I am, out of five I have two that are what I consider the best in the world. The others,,,well,,,,,,the less said the better.
And I am talking about grown good productive adults. Sorry ,you all, right now my heart is about broken, if such a thing can be,, but I'll get through it,, I always have and will this time,,
so, you all take care and call your Mom and tell her you love her, she needs that sometimes..
catch you later Fran

WILL YOU LOOK AT THIS GUY??? I WAS LOOKING AT TV, WHEN MY HUBBY CALLED ME TO THE KITCHEN. SHOWING ME WHAT HAD LANDED ON THE BACK PORCH RAILING. NOW, THIS GUY IS NO STRANGER AROUND HERE, LAST WEEK HE WAS SITTING IN THE PINE TREE I WENT OUT TO SEE HIM , AND HE LOOKED AT ME AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES BEFORE HE FLEW AWAY. HE SURE SCARES THE HECK OUT OF THE BIRDS. THE ONLY THING , I DIDN'T LIKE WAS THE WAY HE WAS LOOKING AT MY FISH POND THAT WAS RIGHT DOWN BELOW HIM. HE BETTER STAY AWAY FROM THEM !!! WELL, THATS THE NEWS FROM DOWN IN THE COUNTRY!!(LAUGHING) FRAN

Good evening every one!! sorry I have not posted lately, but it seems I have been busy. We are having the freezing weather we knew was coming,, only got to about 27 degrees today. But , I guess we should not complain, since some parts of the country is worse off,,
Funny story,, I was in the store Valebtines day, and the men were in there buying the flowers and candy and such... I got to thinking,, and I have told girls I used to work with this ;
"if my husband came home with flowers on Valentines day, I would think he was really up to something""needless to say he has never bought me flowers for that day, one year when I was pregnat he bought me a gallon jar of dill pickles,, hey, that was what I was craving!!
We still remember that one and laugh about it. I guess that means different stokes for different folks, right? Well, I got to go, have a great week and stay warm,,,, Fran
