My DH worked for a plasitics company on the loading docks and his job was to make small hash marks on a scrap paper to keep count of how many skids were ready to load. One day his peers were questioning his count and he pointed to the paper and said yes look here are my skid marks. :oops: :oops:

The first time I took my boyfriend (now my husband of 60 years)to my home we were visiting with my Mom, Alberta, who was sort of on the quiet side, as was my boyfriend. We had done the usual little chit chat and all of a sudden it was quiet and I think we were all trying to think of something to visit about. I glanced at the newspaper which was lying beside me on the couch and noticed my Mom's name in a headline. So I read the headline out loud and it said "Alberta to release her natural gas." (This was news from Alberta, Canada, but we were all a little embarrassed.

I used to go to the bread store & buy my bread. On my lunch hour I happen to go to K Mart. There I saw my husband & neighbor. We talked & when I left I said I would see him (husband) after I got bread!!!!!! Didn't sound right!! Didn't realize what I had said till I got home. I guess everyone around that heard me got a good laugh!

Me to 26yr old DGD: "Your mom figured out my vibrator doesn't work."
Her face told me I had misspoken and I quickly added "My cell phone" as I turned turned beet red. Entire family enjoyed a good laugh.

In my vocabulary, a dickie was a fake collar and facing you could wear when it's too warm to wear a shirt under a sweater or another top. I had NO IDEA there was another definition. It amused the whole bunch for a couple of weeks.
