Yes, Amma. No wonder I just had to color my hair. I get depressed when I see it getting grayer & grayer! Need to buy stock in Miss Clairol.

A few years ago I was walking through the shopping mall with my 2 year old son. As we passed by the Victoria's Secret store, Adam looked up at the windows and said, "Mama, what are those ladies doing?" I glanced at the high-heeled barely-bikini-clad mannequins and quicky answered, "They're wearing shoes!" :lol:

sew cornie...that was a quick one! lol!

I am loving all of these! :lol:

Let's see if i can tell one, without writing a book:

I was on a date. We got in Jimmy's two door car, Jimmy was in drivers seat, David, my bf, in middle,...me by passenger door. We were waiting for Shelley, Jimmy's sister, and her bf to come out and get in back seat.
TWO door car.
So, here comes, Shelley...I am cracking up, already, I always doooo...
She knew we were waiting, so with shoes in hand...she waits for me to open that big door, lean forward while trying to hold seat forward for her, and she proceeds to climb in back...ok, David said, you have to shut it hard...
me: ok!
WHAM! right on Shelley's foot...oops, she wasn't quite in...
I put my head down on his knee, shaking all over...
David: don't cry, dont cry...you didn't mean to...(I was dying, laughing!)...
Ok, here comes Shelley's bf.
I open the door, pull seat forward...wait, wait...
Slam!!! YEEOOOW!!! YUP, RIGHT ON HIS FOOT, TOO!
Once again, I bury my head on David's knee,
and everybody is patting me, and consoling me...
aww, it'll be alright...we know you didn't mean too...
I didn't mean to, at all...but I have always had a problem with getting tickled when I'm not supposed to.
I'm really a very sweet person. HONEST!...
but that was 34 years ago, and I nearly wet myself, every time I tell it...gotta goooo....... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

This one is on me, oh boy I can't believe I'm going to put this in writing. :shock:

Anyhow I must have been Oh 4 or 5 and 3 of us kids were playing, well one had to go in for a nap, and we were climbing trees. Well I GOT STUCK hanging upside down in between (what I call a Y branch) so little Johnny went to the girls house and was trying to tell her mother what was wrong while I'm UP SIDE DOWN, screaming help, help and no one came to help. Well I did get out went home stomping my little feet into the house and I slammed the door. Mom says what is wrong (now mind you I'm about 10 houses down the street) MOM WAS TO HEAR ME SCREAMING HELP you know she did have eyes behind her head. Well, she didn't come and help me. I was so mad.

Sorry it was so long.

My youngest absolutely believed I could read her mind, bc I always seemed to know, when she was up to something. Hey, I saw it on her face :roll: :mrgreen:

thanks for the laughs... with 7 kids we've had some doozies. I'll have to think of some.

Probably the best is one April Fool's Day someone (they never 'fessed up) put a rubber band on the kitchen sprayer faucet so when the water was turned on, the person would get a face full of water. It was meant for me- but my DD got it instead! Was she ticked off!!! We still laugh about it and the kids are NOT allowed to pull tricks on Mom from the threats they got that day. :)

ok, so hubby was always a little squeamish.
When our youngest was eight, she was a tiny, little BLONDE.
The three of us, went to a restauraunt that had good hamburger plates, with fries and slaw and a drink, a good bargain.
Hubby doesn't like dill pickles so he put them on the tin ashtray sitting there.
DD loves dill pickles and was reaching for them...there was old gum, a straw wrapper...yuck...and hubby said, "no! those are dirty, now."
ok, ok, already :lol:
So, we were finishing up, and he went to the men's room.
I leaned across table and gave DD a stick of gum and whispered something to her.
Hubby came back to table, we all got up, he paid tip, and we went to the car... :wink: ....
We got all strapped in, and I turned to make sure DD was all strapped in, and (in a very convincing voice)...
said, "Oh no! Did you get that gum out of that ashtray on the table?"
DD: "well, I wanted some gum..."
Hubby looking shocked and a bit green, whirled around...and before he could speak, we busted out laughing...DD and I had agreed at the table to do this to him :lol: :lol: :lol: and it worked! :lol: :lol: :lol:
