Stress? Who......Me?

A recent conversation here in kenjuland:

I am upstairs and I hear mr. kenju say:



"Judy, I need my phone; will you bring me my phone, please?"

Judy: "Where did you leave it?"

Mr. kenju: "I don't know - it must be in the den." (he is downstairs in the foyer)

So I go downstairs and look for it.

Judy: "It isn't here."

Mr. kenju: "It isn't over by the bar?"

Judy: "No."

Mr. kenju: "Well, go upstairs and press the page button on the base, and the phone will beep."

(Remember, I had just come downstairs at his request....so.... I go back upstairs and press the page button and I hear it beeping - downstairs.)

Judy: "Do you hear it?"

Mr. kenju: "Yes."

Judy: "Where is it?"

Mr. kenju: "In my pocket."



Judy: @#%$&^(*+$%!?"(*)!!

Mr. kenju (quietly): "I shoulda' lied."

P.S. It's okay to laugh - I did.

I'm really sorry for laughing, but that kind of thing happens to me constantly. I'll ask someone if they've seen my cell phone, and then it will ring in my hand and scare me to death. Or I'll spend an hour looking for the sunglasses that are on my head.

Judy,

Several friends got together for lunch.

One if the women had to leave because she lived far away, so she said her goodbyes and left.

Then, it was noticed that she had left her purse on the chair. "That's okay, said one of the friends,"I have her cell phone number. I'll call her."

So, everybody relaxed. It was okay .They could call her and she would come back .

They dialed her cell phone number and the PHONE IN HER PURSE ON THE CHAIR BEGAN TO RING.

LOL, LOL, LOL...I did laugh, out loud, before I got your permission....It was just irrepressable....! Oh Lordy, Judy...Do you feel like the Maid these days?

I hope Mr. Kenju is doing better and better all the time, my dear...Though a story like this is a great blog post! (lol)

Gotta love him. We recently had some friends over for dinner and when they arrived home they called. The Mr. said thanks for everything, the dinner, the freezer (we gave them a freezer...long story), the cake and the phone. I said you're welcome and he said...you haven't heard a word I said. I realized then that he said thanks for the phone at which point he said when he got home one of our cordless phones was in his pocket. Before he called I had started to look for it since they are never where they are supposed to be. Now how the heck did it wind up in his pocket? and how could you not notice it as you sat through dinner, got in the car and drove home? Gotta love him too.

I hate to laugh but that is hilarious. I can see it as a comedy episode on "I Love Lucy"

Alice said...

LOL! Judy, it's even better because I can picture you two having this conversation.

If Mr. Kenju is well enough for you to want to kill him, it sounds like his recovery and your nursing care have been successful!

Tabor said...

Yes, I have been there. I had a mother-in-law with short-term memory loss. Fortunately she was a dear.

Pat said...

Do you find your expletives have become a trifle more racy of late?
