Story
I need to share a little story with you all and a bit of advice! First of all be careful what you pray for and how you say it. Second if your man brings an Egyptian Cotton Clearance Sale Shirt home, throw that sucker in the trash before he even has time to rip the tags off.
Twas the night before Thanksgiving and all through the house I gathered the laundry as quite as a mouse.
I sorted and separated and put them in piles, then into the baskets with a smug little smile.
When what to my wandering eyes should appear but an errant new shirt that missed it's load, Oh dear!
So I sprinted and dashed and fell on my knees, oh darn I missed it, the next load it must be!
The towels, the whites, my new jammies too, all clean as a whistle before I knew it I was through.
Now on to the last load if you please, I mixed in the new shirt with all his old T's.
Finally a break; in my chair fast asleep was I, when an ungodly groan filled the air with a sigh.
I jumped and I ran this time staying upright, my washer was jumping and bouncing, a dreadful sight.
I hit the control and said with a prayer, Lord please help me there's no money to spare.
I grabbed hold of the handle and yanked open the door, only to have all the water spill out on the floor.
So ladies I warn you the next time you pray, make sure you are careful of just what you say!
I should have prayed for a miracle indeed, for God to fix that washer instead of me!

Ladies it must be my week for bad luck. I got the washer put back together only to have a favorite blanket shred to pieces, or perhaps my washer has grown teeth. LOL.... -

We have learned, have we not, to just tell our men DO NOT BUY ANYTHING UNLESS I AM PRESENT, (unless of course you go to the jewerly store for me where a FEMALE can assist you.) This was priceless.


Stumble It!
Thank you for a great chuckle today!! Sorry to hear that your washer grew teeth! What a bummer!
