More humor

After I re-read that last post, maybe it was only really funny to me but I promise this will make you laugh.

#1)On the Saturday before the flood it was raining pretty hard. Jeremy and I have learned that when it rains a bunch like it was doing that day our septic backs up. We had it pumped in the fall and discovered that there is a hole in the bottom thus when vast amounts of rain fall it fills from both ends and backs up. Jeremy was finally tired of it and decided it needed to be fixed. He called our regular guy and told him what was going on, and then our guy had him call the back hoe guy. Here's a brief description of their conversation
J: we live on _________ in Hvile
Back hoe guy: I know where that is. my mom used to live in this ugly house on that road. I think it's near there. I'll be there in about 30 minutes.

The guy told us as he was driving he was thinking "man they're really close to that house" and then as he pulled in he realized yep WE live in that ugly house his mom used to live in! It really is a small world.

#2)Yesterday was Mother's Day and unfortunately Jeremy had to work another 16 hour day. He got home around 3 and pretty much had to go straight to sleep so he could go back in at 11pm. I tried keeping the kids quiet but you can only imagine how difficult it can be keeping 4 pre-schoolers quiet. It was around dinner time so we decided to go out and then go to the grocery store. We went to dinner at Cracker Barrel and I must say the kids did really well. the girls both needed to go potty while were eating but I told them they would need to hold it until we got done b/c I wasn't about to get everyone up nor allow either of them to go by themselves. So we finished dinner and headed towards the potty. After snaking our way through the gift shop we made it to the back corner and entered the potty area. Without even thinking about it we went to the left opened the door and went into the potty. About that time a MAN came out of the stall. I froze and thought "did I go in the wrong door or did HE?" I had to walk in a little farther to realize that indeed there were urinals and that I had made the mistake. URGH! Yes I should have read the sign but honestly why don't they make each store the same? Needless to say I was quite embarrassed but it will be a most memorable Mother's Day.
