Just a reminder about the contest because a couple of folks have not claimed their prize yet. The contest closes on July 14th and all winners must send me their snail mail address by July 16. After that, the contest is completely closed.
I want to thank everyone who has joined my list of followers and who've commented. I love your comments and reading them is the highlight of my evening. Most of the time I'm glued to the computer working on a deadline these days but I do want you to know how much I appreciate you taking time to read my blogs and leave a comment. A Little Sweet Tea and Sass has a new face lift this week...would love to hear what you think of it so when you stop laughing let me know!!!
And now for a little story that was shared with me this week that sure made me laugh...
On their wedding night, the young bride approached her new husband and asked for $20.00 for their first lovemaking encounter.
Her husband readily agreed.
This scenario was repeated each time they made love, for more than 40 years, with him thinking that it was a cute way for her to afford new clothes and other incidentals that she needed.
Arriving home around
During the next few minutes, he explained that his employer was going through a process of corporate downsizing, and he had been let go. It was unlikely that, at the age of 59, he'd be able to find another position that paid anywhere near what he’d been earning, and therefore, they were financially ruined.
Calmly, his wife handed him a bank book which showed more than forty years of steady deposits and interest totaling nearly $1 million. Then she showed him certificates of deposits issued by the Bank which were worth over $2 million, and informed him that they were one of the largest depositors in the bank.
Faced with evidence of cash and investments, Worth over $3 million, her husband was so astounded he could barely speak, but finally he found his voice and blurted out, "If I'd had any idea what you were doing,I would have given you all my business!"
That’s when she shot him!
You
know, sometimes, men just don't know when to keep their mouths shut!
Love the new face lift of the blog :)
