Monday
Funday!
A man was sick and tired of going to work every
day while his wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went
through so he prayed.
Dear Lord, I go to work every day and put in 8
hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what
I go through, so please allow her body to switch with mine for
a day.
God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's
wish. The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman.
He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened
the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed
their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the
dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank
to make a deposit, went grocery shopping, then drove home to put
away the groceries, paid the bills and balance the check book.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1 P.M. He hurried to make the
beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen
floor. Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument
with them on the way home. Set out cookies and milk and got the
kids organized to do their homework, then set up the ironing board
and watched TV while he did the ironing. At 4:30 he began peeling
potatoes and washing vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops
and snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher,
folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 P.M.
he was exhausted and though his daily chores weren't finished,
he went to bed where he was expected to make love which he managed
to get through without complaint.
The next morning he awoke and immediately knelt
by the bed and said, "Lord, I don't know what I was thinking.
I was so wrong to envy my wife being able to stay home all day.
Please, oh please, let us trade back."
The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied, "My
son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to
change things back to the way they were.
You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You
got pregnant last night".
