Joke of the Week:

A motorist, driving in the countryside, hit and killed a calf that was crossing the road.

The driver went to the owner of the calf and explained what had happened. He then asked what the animal was worth.

“Oh, about $150 today,” said the owner. “But in four years it would have been worth $750. So seven hundred and fifty dollars is what I have lost.”

The motorist sat down and wrote out a check and handed it to the farmer.

“Here,” he said, “is the check for $750.00 it’s postdated four years from now.”

I took a pic of myself in the ladies restroom at the mall. Super old school style using a digital camera instead of a phone. Take care my friend.

A woman went into a bank to get a check cashed, but she didn’t have an account with them.

Joke of the Week:

A man and his wife were sitting around the breakfast table one lazy Sunday morning.

He said to her, “If I were to die suddenly, I want you to immediately sell all my stuff.”

“Now why would you want me to do something like that?” she asked.

“I figure that you would eventually remarry and I don’t want some other jerk using my stuff.”

The wife looked at her husband and said, “What makes you think I’d marry another jerk?”

Quote of the Week:

“I will greet this day with love in my heart. And how will I do this?
Henceforth will I look on all things with love and be born again.
I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit.
I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars.
I will welcome happiness as it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul.
I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.” – Og Mandino


{May 6, 2013}   11th Birthday Care Package
Carolina (my sponsor child) will be turning eleven this coming July (2013) so I sent her care package early to make sure she’ll get it prior to her special day. Chalk, dolls, hand puppet, crayons, coloring books, magic paint books, colored pencils, purple high heel pencil sharpener, flower shaped erasers, pens, pencils, markers, recorder, purple paper, bday card, stickers, pink ruler, bubble wands, and a windmill toy were inside this time.

My sister pointed out that all 3 Barbie dolls have the exact same face & body.
What sets them apart are eyeshadow makeup, hair color, outfit, and skin tones.

Would you believe that it cost more to mail the actual package than what all the gifts cost combined?
