*** Anything Broken *** 

Don was tasked with bringing the Christmas decorations up from the
basement, and start decorating the house and tree.  During one trek
up the stairs, heavily laden with boxes, he slipped and luckily only
fell about two steps before landing square on his behind.
 
His wife heard the noise, and yelled, "What was that thump?"
 
"I just fell down the stairs," he explained.
 
She rushed into the room, "Anything broken?!"
 
"No, no, I'm fine."
 
There was just a slight pause before his loving wife said, "No, I
meant my decorations.  Are any of them broken?"

 
*** To Get On In Life ***
 
 
Tell me how to get on in life,
said the kettle.
Take panes,
said the window.
Never be led,
said the pencil.
Do a driving business,
said the hammer.
Aspire to great things,
said the nutmeg graiter.
Make light of everything,
said the fire.
Make much of small things,
said the microscope.
Never do anything offhand,
said the glove.
Just reflect,
said the mirror.
Be sharp,
said the knife.
Find a good thing and stick to it,
said the glue.

And that's why the kettle sings as she works,
and works as she sings.

 
 
Have a Blessed Day
Dave and Barbara
