I decided to start a joke discussion because we as caregivers need our load lightened. We need to laugh at our own situations and those of others to take away the sting and pain we go through. If you have a joke that's racy then give a heads up at the beginning of your post for those who might not want to read your post. We need to avoid that kind of humor. Please don't come on this thread and berate anyone for their choices of humor. This is our place to let go of criticism. Thanks for sharing!!!! ;o)
"That sounds like a fair trade".
It's the law.
A quote from Woody Allen: The lion and the lamb shall lie down together. But the lamb won't sleep for long.
A quote from a novelist I’ve never heard of: “There are times when parenthood seems to be feeding the mouth that bites you”.
In a world where there are more women than men, it pays to recycle.
LEAN BEEF.!
”which is closer. New York or the moon?”
blonde 2 said “Duh. You can see the moon”
Thanks for that. He responded....uh huh.
He did say that one could still eat that salad that fell on the floor.
I am going on with my day, enjoying ALL the jokes and quotes, keeping them between my friends and I.
A quote from Benjamin Franklin: “Keep your eyes wide open before marriage and half-shut afterwards”.
A quote from Zsa Zsa Gabor: “A girl should marry for love, and keep on marrying until she finds it”.
A poet I’ve never heard of: “It doesn’t marry who you marry, you soon find out it was someone else”.
I wrote to show how dH takes the fun (funny) out of everything.
I was not criticizing the joke. He was rambling down a common path that goes no where due to his condition.
I like that you are a domestic engineer. So am I....
However, I drive dH to his part-time job.
That makes me a "driver", but I don't know for how long.....lol.
Dh better get his sense of humor back, or I will be sad. I will tell it to my BIL myself, he will "get it".
"I was an hour late for my train today, but luckily when I reached the station, it was still there...
The people must have been wondering, "Where the heck is the engineer/driver?"
Expanation of joke.
They did not realize I was the engineer/driver
Sorry could not resist as it was only a bit of fun. I said WAS only a bit of fun It obviously is not any longer.
Quote: "I was an hour late for my train today, but luckily when I reached the station, it was still there...

He said the one about the train was too simple.
A discussion ensued.
I said "I cannot believe we are having this discussion," as he starts taking apart the words, intellectualizing them.
He said "I don't think intelligent adults like my brother and I appreciate the simplicity of the joke, it is stupid".
"The simplicity is what makes it funny", I said.
True to his nature, dH wanted to correct the wording, saying: "My brother would not like the joke because he is an engineer, not a "driver".
"I deal with simplicity and stupid everyday and it makes me laugh", I said sarcastically.
He went on to discuss the joke some more....same joke.....he is still mulling it over.
GENTLEMAN: "Compliments? You look very nice today!”
Sorry a bit of a silly one today - not that my others are much better. lol

Then He made the earth round...and laughed and laughed and laughed...."
A quote from Mae West: “Keep a diary and one day it’ll keep you”.
