Hump Day Humor, Women

There is not a woman alive today who won't crack up over this.....

I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week.
 
Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am.

I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45am. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare.

As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort.

So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.

I ws in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in.

Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away.

I was a little surprised when the doctor said, "My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?" I didn't respond....

After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal. Some shopping, cleaning, cooking.

After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, "Mommy, where's my washcloth?"

I told her to get another one from the cupboard.  She replied, "No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it."

Never going back to that doctor.  Ever

Breast Cancer Month Contribution

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

 
Hello, Pretty Lady! 




THIS IS A TOAST .... TO US ... FOR THE MEN WHO HAVE US, 
THE LOSERS WHO HAD US, 
AND THE LUCKY PEOPLE WHO WILL MEET US!! 


You have been considered one of the 10 prettiest ladies with a kind, warm and loving heart.

SEND THIS TO PRETTY LADIES, TO BRIGHTEN THEIR DAY! REMIND LADIES TO BE INFORMED, AWARE AND BE CHECKED FOR THEIR HEALTH'S SAKE... TELL THEM THAT NO ONE WANTS TO LOSE THEM - AFTER ALL, THEY ARE PRETTY LADIES WITH KIND, WARM LOVING HEARTS......

All you are asked to do is keep this circulating 
(even if to one person). 
In memory or in honor of anyone you
 know who has been struck by cancer.
