I vote for a Do-Over

Of the weekend! We were so busy this weekend that I just simply didn't get around to my usual chores - so I need a Do-Over! Not to mention the weather here is acting like it's actually WINTER! The temps are only going to be in the 30's and they are predicting rain/wintry mix - UGH!!! Why oh why couldn't I have been a Stay-At-Home (in bed) Mom? Oh that's right, now I remember .... my kids want to wear shoes and EAT on a regular basis!

To make it through the usual Monday Blahs... I'll pass on a little funny I found in my email this morning....

Yesterday I had a flat tire on the interstate. So I ease my car over to the shoulder of the road, carefully, get out of the car and open the trunk. I took out 2 cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my car facing oncoming traffic. They look so life like you wouldn't believe it! They are in trench coats exposing their nude bodies and private parts to the approaching drivers.

To my surprise, cars start slowing down looking at my life like men. And of course, traffic starts backing up. Everybody is tooting their horns and waving like crazy. It wasn't long before a state trooper pulls up behind me. He gets out of his car and starts walking toward me. I could tell he was not a happy camper! 'What's going on here?' 'My car has a flat tire', I said calmly. 'Well, what the hell are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?' I couldn't believe that he didn't know. So I told him, 'Hellooooo, those are my emergency flashers!

Have a great Monday!

Oh, where can I get a couple of those flashers.

Hope you stay warm. We're expecting the same weather as you here in NE Arkansas.

the university will probably be closed tomorrow(hope, hope) and I'll get to stay home. Just hoping the electric stays on.
