Hoping all is well
Well, I just want to add my well wishes and I’m certain the outcome of this visit will be a successful as the previous ones.
I had a little run in myself with the medical profession and had all four wisdom teeth pulled on Monday and I now have the humiliation of not having any good war stories. I went in Monday at about 11:30, Sue was kind enough to be my driver, and about a half an hour after the put me under they were waking me up to tell me it was over. I stayed at Brian and Sue’s Monday night but felt I should go home on Tuesday as I was talking too much and I was afraid it was delaying my recovery. The only thing I seem to have as a reminder is a slightly pronounced jaw line which I actually kind of like…what kind of a medical war story is that?
I can only hope your stories will be just as boring as mine…
Take care,
Love, Nancy Ellen
PS Happy Birthday!
Getting a hairdryer through customs...
A distinguished young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside her, 'Father, may I ask a favor?'
'Of course, child. What may I do for you?'
'Well, I bought an expensive woman's electronic hair dryer for my mother's birthday that is unopened and well over the Customs limits, and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Under your robes perhaps?'
'I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: I will not lie.'
'With your honest face, Father, no one will question you. When they got to Customs, she let the priest go ahead of her. The official asked, 'Father, do you have anything to declare?'
'From the top of my head down to my waist, I have nothing to declare.'
The official thought this answer strange, so asked, 'And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?'
'I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date, unused.'
Roaring with laughter, the official said, 'Go ahead, Father’
