Thursday already?!

Wow! For some reason this week has really raced by. I suppose I've been fairly busy and that helps. The cold wintery weather is back though, but I'm hoping not for long. I must say, this winter hasn't been too bad overall. It seems as if it has been a lot drier than last year and although it has been freezing cold at times, there have been some corkers in between, which makes a difference to the overall winter feel.

I'm in a much better place today compared to yesterday, mainly because I had a bit of time in the house without STBEH here. He went out last night, which is good. Not only does it give me some time to be chilled in the house with the kids, but also for him to get out, socialise and unwind, which I'm positive he needs too.

Got this joke from The Writer recently and thought I'd share it:

A father puts his three year old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers which she ended by saying "God bless Mommy, God bless daddy, God bless grandma and good-bye grandpa."

The father asked, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"

The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."

The next day grandpa died.

The father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers, which went like this:

"God bless Mommy, God Bless daddy and good-bye grandma."

The next day the grandmother died.

Oh my god, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.

Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say,

"God bless Mommy and good-bye daddy."

He practically went into shock.

He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office.

He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay. He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day
he stayed there, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound.

Finally midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.

When he got home his wife said "I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?"

He said "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life."

She said "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened HERE."

He asked "What"??????

She said "This morning your best friend James suddenly died."

Enjoy your Phuza Thursday peeps!
