Friday Funnies

You Know You’re Really A Mom When…

You count the sprinkles on each kid's cupcake to make sure they're equal.

You have time to shave only one leg at a time.

You hide in the bathroom to be alone.

Your child throws up and you catch it.

You hope ketchup is a vegetable because it's the only one your child eats.

You read that the average five-year-old asks 437 questions a day and feel proud that your kid is "above average."

You say at least once a day, "I'm not cut out for this job," but you know you wouldn't trade it for anything.

Friday Funnies and a Reminder

my oldest son – 1981

Tips From Cowboys

~ Never squat with your spurs on!

~ Never kick a fresh cow chip on a hot day.

~ Don't worry about bitin' off more than you can chew. Your mouth is probably a whole lot bigger than you think.

~ After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

~ Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

~ Always drink upstream from the herd.

~ Always take a good look at what you're about to eat.
It's not so important to know what it is, but it's critical to know what it was.

~ The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back in your pocket.

~ Never miss a good chance to shut up.

Friday Funnies - Georgia Snow

Now all you Northerners may want to skip this post, but we Southern bred gals will understand this completely...

Our state had some snow yesterday and last night. With colder than normal temperatures, it will stick around for a few days instead of melting right away.

Last night my grandkids enjoyed a roaring fire, hot chocolate, and good family time...although they couldn’t “marsh” any marshmallows since the fire came from a fire log...

Anyway, when my 7 year old granddaughter looked out the window this morning, she proclaimed,

“Oh my goodness, Antarctica is here!”

LOL

Enjoy your Friday!

UPDATE

I heard this story second hand. My DIL just gave me the scoop in a comment.

"Actually, (I hope this doesn't spoil it), she said "Manarctica is here!" Which is a name she made up for a Barbie that can throw out popsicles everywhere! I guess like a super hero!? Ha ha! She has her daddy's imagination!"

This just makes it even funnier to me!

Friday Funnies and a News Flash!

Foot Snuggle

On a chilly winter evening, my husband and I were snuggled together on the floor watching television. During a commercial break, he reached over and gave my foot a gentle squeeze.

"Mmmmm," I said. "That's so sweet."

"Actually," he admitted sheepishly, "I thought that was the remote."

Kitchen Help

The wife was busy frying eggs, when her husband came home. He walked into the kitchen and immediately started yelling.

"CAREFUL!!! CAREFUL! MORE OIL! TURN THEM! TURN THEM NOW! WE NEED MORE OIL! THEY ARE GOING TO STICK! CAREFUL! CAREFUL! TURN THEM! TURN THEM!!! HURRY UP! ARE YOU CRAZY! THE OIL IS GOING TO SPILL! USE MORE SALT! THE SALT!!"

The wife was very upset, "What is wrong with you? Why are you yelling like this? Do you think I don't know how to fry an egg?"

The husband calmly replied, "I just wanted you to know what it's like for me when I am driving the car and you're sitting next to me."

Friday Funnies

A woman went to a walk-in clinic, where she was seen by a young, new doctor. After about three minutes in the examination room, the doctor told her she was pregnant.

She burst out, screaming as she ran down the hall.
An older doctor stopped her and asked what the problem was, and she told him what had happened.
After listening, he had her sit down and relax in another exam room.

The doctor marched down the hallway back to where the first doctor was and demanded, "What's the matter with you? Mrs. Terry is 59 years old, has four grown children and seven grandchildren, and you told her she was PREGNANT?!"

The young doctor continued to write on his clipboard, and without looking up, asked, "Does she still have the hiccups?"

Friday Funnies – 2 Bros and a Fillet

Aren’t family memories wonderful? Treasures stored in our hearts to share with future generations...pictures imprinted in our minds to remember of days long ago...

My sons are all grown now, but once upon a time they were little...and as brothers are prone to do, they liked to terrorize bother each other constantly occasionally.

One such incident took place outside a popular fish restaurant. The youngest brother ordered fish like his big brothers, but to his dismay, did not enjoy it as much as his usual chicken nuggets.

Having tender feelings towards the unwanted fillet, and also not wanting a reprimand by his dad, my youngest quietly placed the rejected fish in his pants pocket.

While leaving the restaurant, he made the unfortunate decision to share this secret with his older brother who promptly proceeded to practice his newest boxing moves on the pocket of his younger brothers pants...

Needless to say, flakes of fish and crumbs of breading are NOT easy things to clean out of a pocket...

The moral of this story is...

Feelings of remorse for dead seafood are best not shared...
