"The Sneeze"

They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-two students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With their rich maroon gowns flowing... and the traditional caps, they looked almost as grown up as they felt. Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.

This class would NOT pray during the commencements----not by choice, but because of a recent court ruling prohibiting it. The principal and several students were careful to stay within the guidelines allowed by the ruling. They gave inspirational and challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no one asked for blessings on the graduates or their families.

The speeches were nice, but they were routine.....until the final speech received a standing ovation. A solitary student walked proudly to the microphone. He stood still and silent for just a moment, and then, it happened. All 92 students, every single one of them, suddenly SNEEZED!!!! The student on stage.. simply looked at the audience and said, 'GOD BLESS YOU , each and every one of you!' And he walked off stage... The audience exploded into applause.

This graduating class had found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or without the court's approval. Isn't this a wonderful story? Pass it on to all your friends.........and GOD BLESS YOU!!!! This is a true story; it happened at the University of Maryland .

"Out for Lunch"

Dad and I did a good one yesterday! We went to our favorite Applebee's for lunch. We were going to be very good and order from the Weight Watches menu. We each ordered a Chicken Grilled Spinach Salad...only 250 calories! Yes, we did real good! When our salads came, we each had a big plate of spinach leaves with four little strips of chicken, red roasted peppers, onion, and some cheese sprinkled in the middle. I asked for more dressing, thinking it would get better. It didn't. We both decided it was OK but we would not order it again. After lunch we went over to Hasting and picked up a couple of movies. As we were leaving, I was thinking "where is the nearest McDonalds??????" I just know Ron is going to think I AM CRAZY, but I am starved!!!
We get in the car and he looks at me and says "some Wendy's chili sure would be good just about now. " I don't know about you but I am starved. I start laughing and said I was looking for McD's but Wendy's is GREAT! So off we went to Wendy's for chili and fries. We were both starved. Twenty bucks for two plates of spinach leaves and we have to go to Wendy's!!!!!! We have laughed about that lunch all day today. Guess the joke was on us!!!! Bet we DON'T order from that side of the menu again.

"Curtains"

Last week-end dad and I spent the afternoon hanging curtains in the living room. We got one (1) window done. I found out two (2) things...I don't like being told what to do and dad likes to tell you how to do everything!!! We decided to quit after the first window and do the next one on Tuesday. Never happen! He said he wasn't about to tell me what to do even if we didn't ever get them hung. Maybe it will get done on Friday when dad is doing the grocery shopping ;-) Bet I can hang them before he gets home. At least we can laugh at ourselves and not get mad at each other....

"Time Change"

Around 11 o'clock I asked hubby, isn't this the week-end for time change? He wasn't sure and told me to look it up on the Internet. I started to when I remembered the notice that was put up on the bulletin board at work. He got up and changed three of the clocks, leaving the radio in our bedroom. He hates to set that clock! As he walked by the computer where I was (and always am) he said "I set three, do you think you can set one? I looked up at him and said "I set my watch". The look on his face (he he he he) was priceless. He kinda laughed, shook his head and then called me a little name that I won't put here. he he he he
