Family is Funny!

I am working way too much. But David and I are a team. Speaking of Dave---funny story number one. We had our taxes done and we owe a bit more than expected. As we left the tax guy Dave tells me, "We'll just have to file for divorce." I said "What!!" He said, "that's the only way I can get my Plan B money." I was baffled. He let me know that nothing would change except we would have the money for taxes. I didn't even consider it. He said that he knows guys that have done it. (I think he bluffing--he's probably read about guys doing it on the Internet) At any rate, I said absolutely not. He questioned again and said he wasn't sure how we would get the money. I gently told him it would be fine, we would find a way. He just couldn't see how and mentioned the divorce again. I set him straight and let him know that when we were married I made a promise that I would not have marital relations with anyone I am not legally and lawfully married to. He paused---and said, "I guess we could find another way."

Funny story number two. My mother is sometimes like an innocent child. She is the Young Women's president in her ward and made each of the girls a special treat for Valentine's Day. She was picking out treats and saw a display for M & M's stating that the new color of love is green. She thought she'd be hip and get some green M & M's. Yes, that's correct, each girl got foil hearts and green M & M's. Only after she gave out the treats did she discover that folk lore says that green M & M's make you horny. Good thing virtue is part of personal progress. I don't think the Beehives got it, but I'm sure the older girls giggled all the way home.

Catch up with you all when I'm not working soooo much!!
