Fall Back

Update on my ankle: it was a mild sprain. The side of my foot turned purple but the swelling was minimal. with an Ace ankle support and my Nike's I can walk around comfortably. This is fortunate since I'm on my feet all day at work!

Well, it's definitely not summer anymore. We got down to 41 degrees last night which is record-setting for down here. High today was only 65, which is unheard of at this time of year. And Daylight Savings Time ends this weekend. I hate it when it's dark when I get home from work.

During one of her daily classes, a teacher, trying to teach good manners, asked her students the following question: 'If you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady,how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom? Yes, Michael?'

Michael said, 'Just a minute I have to go pee.'

The teacher responded by saying, 'That would be rude and impolite.What about you Sherman, how would you say it?'

Sherman said,'I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back.'

'That's better, but it's still not very nice to say the word "bathroom" at the dinner table. And you, little Johnny, how would you say you explain it?'

Little Johnny answered, 'I would say: "Darling , may I please be excusedfor a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, to whom I hope to introduce you after dinner."'

The teacher fainted...

Dear Christina ~~ Glad your ankle injury isn't too serious and you are comfortable.
Loved little Johnny's answer. Thanks for your comments. Trevor should really enjoy Christmas this year, now he is older. I do most of my shopping from mail order catalogues, not on-line. I am not quite game enough to do that.
Take care, Love, Merle.

I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself any worse than what it is. Ankle sprain's suck so much!

I hate to say it, but your Florida weather, sounds very,very close to my MI weather. I didn't think that was possible. Only difference, we're hittin very low 30's at night. I totally agree with you. I can't stand how early it gets dark out now.

Little Johnny is too funny. Where do you get all these jokes from?

I would faint, too.

Glad you're felling better.

Yeah, it was pretty cold here. at school, it was 39 this morning, and I have morning duty outside. I had on two jackets.
