 You are warm and friendly. You are a social creature and a true extrovert. You are welcoming, and you love to have people over to your place. You make everyone feel at home. You are sweet, but you aren’t overwhelming. You know how to be subtle with people. You have tact. You love life, and people love to be around you. You are very popular without trying to be. |
The efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution. “You don’t want to try these techniques at home.”
“Why not?” asked someone from the back of the audience.
“I watched my wife’s routine at breakfast for years,” the expert explained. “She made lots of trips to the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying just a single item at a time. ‘Hon,’ I suggested, ‘Why don’t you try carrying several things at once?'”
The voice from the back asked, “Did it save time?”
The expert replied, “Actually, yes. It used to take her twenty minutes to get breakfast ready. Now I do it in seven.”

Yep, that sounds about right! 
Have a wonderful weekend!

A mother went to wake her son for church one Sunday morning. When she knocked on his door, he said, “I’m not going!”
“Why not?” asked his mother.
“I’ll give you two good reasons,” he said. “One, they don’t like me. Two, I don’t like them.”
His mother replied, “I’ll give you two good reasons why YOU WILL go to church. One, you’re 47 years old. Two, you’re the pastor!”

Sometimes you just have to give your kids some tough love. 
Have a great weekend!

An elderly man was having hearing problems and went to see a specialist. The doctor fitted him with some hearing aids that brought his hearing back to full strength.
After a few weeks the man came back to make sure the new equipment was working properly, which it was.
The hearing specialist said, “It all seems perfect. Your family should be delighted you can hear everything now.”
“Oh no,” the man responded. “I haven’t told any of them. I just sit quietly, listening carefully. I’ve changed my will four times.”
*****
Sounds like a pretty wise man, to me!
Have a lovely weekend!

| “You Are Mulled Wine” |
 You are a good friend. You love to gather with those who are dear to you, to catch up and drink lots of wine. For you, fall means more dinners with friends and long nights by the fire. You love coming inside after the summer. You enjoy making your home as comfortable as possible during the fall. You never know who might stop by for a warm drink or a piece of pie. Your ultimate holiday, Thanksgiving, also arrives in the fall. Whether you’re hosting or just bringing a dish, you love how everyone gets together during this time. |
Simon’s mower motor had finally given up the ghost. His wife, Maria, kept dropping hints about getting it fixed before the grass grew too tall, but the message wasn’t getting through, and Simon kept procrastinating and putting off doing the repairs.
Frustrated, Maria decided on what she thought was a clever way to make her point. When Simon arrived home from work, he found Maria sitting in the grass, clipping it by hand with a tiny pair of scissors.
Simon, totally amazed, watched silently for a few minutes, then went into the house only to appear again a few minutes later where he handed her a toothbrush. ‘When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the sidewalks,’ said Simon ungraciously.
*****
You know where the surgeon eventually found those scissors and toothbrush, right?
Have an epic weekend!
