527 - 15 Days till Hawaii!

Yep, amidst all the turmoil that is the cleanup from our enormous storm in late October, Thanksgiving is coming next week, then the week after, Hawaii.

My daughter called and asked if we’d “puppy-sit” our Grand-Puppy for 2 nights so she and her boyfriend could go see his family up in Maine. Of course my wife JUMPED right on that! *chuckling* It’ll be fun having a little one in the house, even if it is a 4 legged one! *S*

Other than that, we’re still cleaning up our backyard, as the amount of debris is overwhelming. Luckily, my son has been giving us a hand cleaning it up and I bought a new chain-saw as my old one died after about 40 years of use.

This weekend, I’m going to put all our paperwork together for the trip, make sure I have everything, and double check all the information.

On to something funny:

And this is a true story!

While on a luxury cruise, the receptionist received a call from a distressed passenger. "I wish to inform you that there is a faulty electrical appliance in my suite. Could you please send someone over to have it repaired immediately?? asked a lady passenger, clearly upset.

"Certainly, I shall arrange for someone to look into the matter immediately. Which electrical appliance would that be?? asked the concierge.

"It?s the microwave. I?ve been trying to warm up some supper for myself but the microwave wouldn’t start,? replied the passenger.

"The microwave, Madam?? repeated the bewildered receptionist. "Yes, the microwave. You know, the heating device that is installed in the wardrobe,? replied the passenger sarcastically. "I?ve been trying for the past hour but my supper is still cold.?

Upon arriving at the suite, the receptionist found the lady passenger standing in front of the wardrobe, pressing vigorously at the control panel of the safe deposit box installed in the wardrobe. "Let me show you how what I have been trying. I key in the number of minutes here, but I don?t really know which one is the start button...?

Have a great day all!

Call me old-fashioned, but there's nothing more manly than using a chainsaw.
