"Medical Assistance Needed in the Restroom!"

"Gladys Friday" has just returned from an event in Myrtle Beach, SC. While dining out one night, she noticed a man walking through the restaurant, making his way to the restroom appearing to have had far too much "juice" to drink.

Within a few minutes, there was an announcement over the speaker, "Medical assistance is needed in the restroom STAT!"

"Gladys" didn't see anyone flocking over to assist so she decided to see if she could help. Getting closer to the men's room, she could hear this awful scream coming from inside. Opening the door, "Gladys" could see that same man as he was explaining, "every time I flush this toilet, SOMETHING reaches up and SQUEEZES ME!" ~ and he showed us once again ~ as another scream followed.

"Gladys Friday" offered her medical advice (disclaimer ~ no charge, no co-pay collected)....."Maybe you should get OFF of the mop bucket and try the toilet!" And maybe cut down on the juice!?!?

I'm "Gladys Friday" today....aren't you?

Senior Sweethearts

"Gladys Friday" and her husband were watching TV and she started thinking about how things were a long, long time ago.

She said, "Archie, you haven't held my hand in a very long time".....and his wrinkled hand held her wrinkled hand.

Then she said, "how long has it been since you just put your arm around me?"......so he put his painful arthritis arm around her.

After sitting there for a few minutes, she said, "Archie, remember when you used to nibble on my neck a little?".....and Archie got up from the couch and Gladys asked....."where are you going?".....and he said "I'M GOING TO GET MY TEETH!"

Attention to deTAILS ~

Gladys asked her husband to pick up their dog at the groomers, she had dropped her off early that morning. That evening, when she arrived home....she asked her husband where "Molly" was. He said, "she is in the backyard and did you know that she doesn't squat? She hikes her leg now!?" Gladys knew right away there was a problem. She looked out in the yard and sure enough, there was A dog, hiking it's leg, marking it's territory.....but it WAS NOT MOLLY! That dog wasn't even the same color!

When questioned, her husband said, "No, it's Molly, she's just cleaned up. I know it's her because she jumped right into the car when I went to pick her up. She BARKED all the way home.....running from side to side in the car, happy to ride. When we got home, she acted as if she had been gone forever, just sniffing everywhere, she was so excited to be home! She seems to have forgotten all of her tricks though, she just sits and stares at me."

Gladys knew what the problem was. He had picked up the WRONG DOG! She quickly called the groomers, just before closing time and they informed her that "Monty" had been picked up by her husband but "Molly" was still there! So Gladys loaded up the dog, took HIM back to the groomers and brought Molly home to stay.

The next day, Gladys husband was to pick up their little grand daughter at school. When Gladys arrived home, she asked, "Where is Sam?" (her nickname for Samantha) and he said, "she's in the restroom and did you know she stands up now to use the restroom?"

NEVER again did anyone in the family ask him to pick anything up with deTAILS!

I'm "Gladys Friday" ~ aren't you? Have a wonderful weekend.

Easter Sunday Dinner


"Gladys Friday" is preparing for Easter Sunday Dinner with her family right after church on Sunday. She reflects on the first holiday meal she prepared as a newlywed. Her husband was excited that her parents and grandparents would all be together for the first time with his entire family.

"Gladys" was busy in the kitchen, preparing to cook the ham. He watched as she cut off a portion of the ham and throw it into the trash & place the ham into the pan and then the oven. Very confused, he asked her, "why did you cut part of the ham off and throw it away?" "Gladys" said......"because that's the way my Mother did it."

So he decided to ask her Mother during dinner and SHE said...."well, that's the way MY Mother did it."

He was really confused and just had to know then, so wanting to solve the mystery he asked the grandmother....."why did YOU cut part of the ham off and throw it away?" and she explained...."well sweetie, WE never had a PAN LARGE ENOUGH to cook a WHOLE HAM!!!"

Enjoy your Easter Holiday with your family, ASK lots of questions, listen a little longer and LOVE each other a little bit stronger.

I often wonder what disease the "cured ham" had anyway, don't you?

Don't forget to LOVE, LIVE and LAUGH OUT LOUD! Just remember the REAL reason for Easter ~ there is NO GREATER LOVE.

I'm "Gladys Friday" today, aren't you?
