artenisia update

This from Lindsey:

 

hey

how are you?

Well I just wanted to let you know that Artinesha had another surgery on Tuesday, and is doing fine.  When she had her first surgery the doctor did it two different ways, and one was not  healing right, so he went in and fixed it.  We are hoping she will be home in about 10 days.

Please tell all the kids I said hey and that I love them.

love ya

Jail Time!


This from Marc:

 

An 80 year old woman was arrested for shop lifting.  When she went before the judge he asked her, "What did you steal?"  

She replied: a can of peaches.

  

The judge asked her why she had stolen them and she replied that she was  hungry.  

 

The judge then asked her how many peaches were in the can.  She replied 6.
  

The judge then said, "I will give you 6 days in jail."
 
Before the judge could actually pronounce the punishment the woman's  husband spoke up and asked the judge if he could say something.  

He said, " What is it? "
 
The husband said  "She also stole a can of peas."

Thanks Marc!

 

 

God Bless You All!!!

No one believes seniors . . . everyone thinks they are senile.

No one believes seniors . . . everyone thinks they are senile.

 

An Elderly couple were celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighborhood after they retired.

 

Holding hands they walked back to their old school. It was not locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they'd shared, where Andy had carved "I love you, Sally."

 

On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of an armored car, practically landing at their feet. Sally quickly picked it up, but not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted the money--fifty-thousand dollars.

 

Andy said, "We've got to give it back."

 

Sally said, "Finders keepers." She put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic.

 

The next day, two FBI men were canvassing the neighborhood looking for the money, and knock on the door. "Pardon me, but did either of you find a money bag that fell out of an armored car yesterday?"

 

Sally said, "No."

 

Andy said, "She's lying. She hid it up in the attic."

 

Sally said, "Don't believe him, he's getting senile."

 

The agents turn to Andy and began to question him. One says: "Tell us the story from the beginning."

 

Andy said, "Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday . . "

 

The first FBI guy turns to his partner and says, "We're outta here.

 

God Bless You All!!!

How’s this for a hamburger to go! This morning my wife and I were lounging in the bed at about 7:00 AM, (Church doesn’t start ‘til 10:00), when there arose quite the cacophony outside our bedroom window.

“Pull it! Pull harder! Grab it! Careful!”

So, of course, I got up and grabbed my camera.

Well, it seems my neighbor had just purchased a new young bull and was preparing to transfer him to the farm. I’m no beef farmer, but this just doesn’t seem like a very efficient way to transfer a cow. ‘Maybe he’s not just transferring a cow.’ I thought, as I snapped some pictures.

He’s my neighbor and He doesn’t seem like the type that would traffic drugs. But then, what do I know?

I’ve got no beef with him. (‘No pun intended’ would not be an accurate statement. Now, would it? J) So I’ll just enjoy the humor of seeing a cow in a boat. (And share that humor with you!)
