who could use a little comic relief?

So, do you think this stuff really works? I am trying anything!

I think that what we really need is a little comic relief.. my sweet friend Chanel forwarded this to me this morning, and I got a good chuckle:

One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.  
  Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, 'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'

'Reading a book,' she replies, (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?')  

   'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her.  

'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading'  

    'Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up.'      

'For reading a book,' she replies,  

 'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her again,

 'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading'  

  'Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up.'  

   'If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault,' says the woman.  

  'But I haven't even touched you,' says the game warden.  

 'That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.'     

 'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.     

   MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.          Send this to four women who are thinkers.  

LOVE IT!! funny huh!

This made me laugh too!… I have rec’d several emails telling me that I look like Alexis Grace- from American Idol (the one that got the boot last week)… i got this in an email from Rebekah with our photos attached… I thought it was funny! (this photo of me is 5 years old - man, i have really aged since then!)

What do you think? long lost sisters? Maybe I should consider the PINK! I thought she was pretty awesome, so I was sad that she was off the show…I can’t wait for Cathy Zielskie’s facebook commentary of the show. If you aren’t a facebook friend of Cathy, you have to add her, and join in as she hosts the show from Facebook! It is the funniest thing ever… and I LOVE it, cause I read it all before I get to see it 12 hours later! Jump in and add your thoughts and comments! It’s SOOO FUN! the idols this season ROCK, and I am LOVING it. we are all addicted in our house, except Eric who thinks we are total dorks! Today is my kids’ last day at their school… I am taking in treats, and we are having a ‘going away’ party… the ‘going away’ parties are killing me. I just feel my heartbreak every time. I mean, (gulp)… it’s not likely that we will ever see these people, who have been such a blessing and influence in our lives again. UGH. My kids have had amazing teachers, and supports. I can’t even believe the growth, and maturity they have gained in 7 months. (deep breaths).

My sweet friend Jodi is here… we have been friends for years, and she works for US Airways, so she just jaunted here to help pack up. we went to the market last night to buy her a purse (she got a really cute shiny pink one!), and go to my favorite jewelry lady… and man, I am going to miss this place. Because see, you can get fabulous purses like THIS!!! I have a hot pink one, but this yellow is SO fab..

Who wants it!?

yep, in celebration, and because I am HERE, and soon, I won’t be… I am giving this cute thing away! Leave me a comment, and I will pick a winner in 24 hours! GOOD LUCK….

Is this contest over or am I the first? That would be a first! ;)

I need a new purse and my birthday is coming up. I hope that you pick me!

Thanks and all the best.
