I got home last night and had 2 packages waiting for me. Both from boardies!

Today I have at least one package coming for sure and maybe 2 more.

Unfortunately I must take a break from buying here next month as all the birthdays and holidays in my family are coming up.

 

Good morning ya'll

Is the house and family okay?

 

Yeah, thanks for asking. We were lucky. Although we're very close to the Connecticut river, we are much higher than it so flooding isnt a concern. I did get some water in the basement but that happens when we gets lots of rain in a short period of time and the ground can't handle it. No trees in my yard, which most of the time I hate, but when it storms, I'm grateful I don't have any

In parochial school students are taught that lying is a sin. However,

instructions also advised that using a bit of imagination was OK to express

the truth differently without lying. Below is a perfect example of those

teachings:

Getting a Hairdryer Through Customs.

An attractive young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside

her, 'Father, may I ask a favor?' '

'Of course child. What may I do for you?'

'Well, I bought my mother an expensive hair dryer for her birthday. It is

unopened but well over the Customs limits and I'm afraid they'll confiscate

it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Hide it

under your robes perhaps?'

'I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you, I will not lie.'

'With your honest face, Father, no one will question you.'

When they got to Customs, she let the priest go first. The official asked,

'Father, do you have anything to declare?'

'From the top of my head down to my waist I have nothing to declare.'

The official thought this answer strange, so asked, 'And what do you have to

declare from your waist to the floor?'

'I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is,

to date, unused.'

Roaring with laughter, the official said, 'Go ahead, Father. Next!'

I was saying that because I am catholic it is okay for me to poke fun at a priest, but I am sure that comment will still offend someone.

 

 

Good Morning
