That’s a good one @HHilary
As a kid, I did all the ironing and mending for the household. Once, when she was angry with my dad, my mom had me starch his undershorts. Another time she had me sew up the front opening. He never noticed either until after he was at work. He learned.
@DeAnn Haha I like the idea of starched underpants, not so much the ironing and mending.
A man was driving along the road and saw a rabbit hopping across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the rabbit, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of the car and was hit. The driver, being a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulled over to the side of the road, and got out to see what had become of the rabbit.
Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead. The driver felt so awful, he began to cry. A woman driving down the road saw the man crying on the side of the road and pulled over. She stepped out of her car and asked the man what was wrong.
“I feel terrible,” he explained, “I accidentally hit this rabbit and killed it.”
The woman told the man not to worry. She knew what to do. She went to her car boot and pulled out a spray can. She walked over to the limp, dead rabbit, and sprayed the contents of the can onto the rabbit.
Miraculously the rabbit came to life, jumped up, waved it’s paw at the two humans and hopped down the road. 50 meters away the rabbit stopped, turned around, waved and hopped down the road, another 50 meters, turned, waved and hopped another 50 meters. The man was astonished. He couldn’t figure out what substance could be in the woman’s spray can!!
He ran over to the woman and demanded, “What is in your spray can? What did you spray on that rabbit?”
The woman turned the can around so that the man could read the label. It said: “Hair spray. Restores life to dead hair. Adds permanent wave.”
I always speak of you with kindness and in envy, but you are now on my list for those last two posts. I don’t know what immersion is, and I cannot read the small print on the one you couldn’t resist. Now I am confused as well as feeling left out of probably the funniest post on the thread! Meanie!!
Everyone is talking about how they do household chores as exercise to get better. My dog beats me to it…she hoovers all the crumbs off the floor (living garbage disposer), washes the dishes, takes the trash out (of the can, anyway). She is also very good at pressing the sheets (beneath her, as she saws logs on the bed). She would clean the toilets as well, if we would leave the doors open for her to get to them. Poor dog works so hard.
I agree @DeAnn It is hard to read but if you left click on the kids in the tub it brings it up bigger.
and this link will tell you all about an immersion heater:
Basically it is an expensive bit of kit to boil your water in a bigger quantity than a kettle and costs an awful lot of money to do.
Never leave home without a kiss,
a hug and an ‘I love you’.
Then remove the dog hair
from your mouth
as you walk to the car.
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I’m not sure.
