Saying goodbye to mother

Maybe you've seen this before. Someone sent it to me this morning and I thought you'd get a laugh out of it, too.

SAYING GOODBYE TO MOTHER......

You Don't Have To Own A Cat To Appreciate This One! You don't even have to like 'em!

We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Years Eve Party. We turned on a nightlight, turned the answering machine on, covered our pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.


We phoned the local cab company and requested a taxi. The taxi arrived and we opened the front door to leave the house. The cat we put out in the yard, scoots back into the house. We didn't want the cat shut in the house because she always tries to eat the bird.
My wife goes out to the taxi, while I went inside to get the cat.


The cat runs upstairs, with me in hot pursuit. Waiting in the cab, my wife doesn't want the driver to know that the house will be empty for the night. So, she explains to the taxi driver that I will be out soon, 'He's just going upstairs to say Goodbye to my mother.'

A few minutes later, I get into the cab.



'Sorry I took so long,' I said, as we drove away. 'That stupid ***** was hiding
under the bed. I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried to take off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had to wrap her in a blanket to keep her from scratching me. But it worked! I hauled her fat ass downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!”

The cab driver hit a parked car.

DJ and Shelby have been mourning the loss of a good friend and fellow aviator this week.

I printed that off and gave it to them.

Thanks for giving them both something to actually smile about.

Glad I could help. Laughter really IS the best medicine.
