It started off okay. I finished the photo challenge with a pic of
me on a pony. Then the Sinus virus
hit. I tried to fight it but, I lost and
missed too much work. Then my wife was
in a car crash. She was a passenger and
their car was hit by the Ralph’s lunch truck. Yes, she got run over by the same barf wagon
that visits my workplace daily. I teased
her that she just wanted everyone I work with to eat healthier. She is bruised but, not really injured and I
told her that she made a brave sacrifice for my work buddies.
It is amazing to me that I can still be funny
when I feel like crap. Carol says about
her bruises “it only hurts when I laugh”.
Oopppss!!! She married the wrong
guy.
Missing work at my new job gave me some
anxiety so I visited my friend Dr. Goldbloops.
Dr. Goldbloops told me an old joke of his that made me feel better. Here it is:
Young polar bear comes home from
school, this is a true story.
He asks his
mom “Mom, Grandma and Grandpa were polar bears weren’t they?
His mother
answers “Of course they were son. Go get
washed up for dinner.
At the
dinner table the young polar bear asks his father “Dad, Nanny and Pappy were
both polar bears weren’t they?
Father
answers “Of course they were. Why do you
ask such a silly question?
Young polar bear
answers “Cuz I’m freezing!”.
That’s the best I can do this week. Next week I promise I’ll do better.

I donate a blanket :-) LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a polartastic week and thanks for splashing week ;-)
Could use the blanket. Thanks a lot. Let's all have a better week next week.
DeleteThanks for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteSo glad your wive is okay.
You have to talk to the pumpkins first or you will get a rotten one every time!
Thank you for that Pumpkin advice. Now, do I get rid of it or will it behave?
DeleteIt's kind of a groaner, but you're playing along when you don't feel well and your wife is all bruised up. The two of you get better.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific Silly Sunday. :)
Thanks. Have a great week.
DeleteHope you and your wife feel better very soon! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI am sorry I am so slow to get over here to read your post. Hope you are both feeling much better by now. I think it is great that you kept your sense of humor when you feel cruddy and stressed.
ReplyDeleteStill kinda groggy. Worked today. It was torture. Thanks.
DeleteI am also fighting a sinus cold this week. The weather here in NY is killing me. Glad to hear your wife is ok. That sounds pretty scary.
ReplyDeleteChange of seasons is bothering people all over. Carol is bruised but, not broken. Thanks.
DeleteI love your bear story, that is cute!! have a great week and stop by for Join Us for We Start Mondays Together Blog Hop"

Thank you.
DeleteOh my, what a week, talk about life thundering down. Isn't it always the way? When it comes, it comes. At least now you know the worst is over.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it will even out with a winning lottery ticket this week. Thanks.
DeleteSorry about your sinus infection, and what a sacrifice your wife made for your co-workers. Hope she is feeling better soon. Stick to the polar bear joke and she won't laugh as much :) (Just kidding, I actually laughed.)
ReplyDeleteThat's what is great about Carol. I can tell that joke every week and she never remembers. Thanks.
Deletehey 54. Anyone can have a sense of humor when everything is going well. The real measure of people is there ability to be funny when the chips are down. In my book you are an exepliry human being. Please continue on your pursuit of all things that are awesome.
ReplyDeleteWill do. I can't wait to be able to see straight again. I have so much to write. Thanks for visiting.
ReplyDeleteWell that definitely qualifies for a crappy week. Cold season has officially begun, Hubs has a cold this week. Hope your wife's bruises heal in spite of her laughter.
ReplyDeleteWe're both felling better now. Thank you.
DeleteThat joke sure is cute. I can sympathize with your sinus probems, for I have been battling them for the past few weeks. The change of the seasons really gets me every year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting and sharing your joke at Royalegacy Reviews and More.

ReplyDeleteShe's recovering from a broken foot. It's always something.
DeleteThanks for playing.
laughter is the Best Medicine, hope you and your wife are well soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you, we're much better now.
DeleteThat does sound like you had a really rough time when you wrote that. The polar bear joke was cute, I did get a chuckle out of it. I do think it's ironic that your wife got hit by the roach coach that frequents your workplace. Definitely a bad day.....
ReplyDeleteYes, I happened to recycle that joke as I came down with a fever yesterday.
DeleteThanks for playing.
Proud to say I managed to avoid the roach coach all of my years in the corporate world. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteGood Job!
DeleteThanks for playing.
