CheddarMan, a fresh water mariner from the upper midwest, sent this one.
According to him, it was voted Women's Favorite E-mail of the Year!
A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home.
He wanted her to see what he went through, so he prayed:
Dear Lord:
I go to work every day and put in 8 hours
while my wife merely stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through. So,
please allow her body to switch with mine
for a day. Amen
God, in His infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.
The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman... He arose, cooked
breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids,set out their school clothes, fed them
breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up
the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a deposit.
Then went grocery shopping, then drove home to put away the groceries, paid the
bills and balanced the check book.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog... Then, it was already 1 PM and
he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, And sweep and mop the
kitchen floor. Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with t
hem on the way home. Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do
their homework. Then, set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the
ironing. At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the
kids, and put them to bed.
At 9 P.M. He was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to
bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without
complaint.
The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said: -
Lord, I don't know what I was thinking.
I was so wrong to envy my wife's being
able to stay home all day.
Please, Oh! Please, let us trade back.
Amen
God, in His infinite wisdom, replied:
My son, I feel you have learned your lesson
and I will be happy to change things back to
the way they were. You'll just have to wait
nine months, though.
You got pregnant last night.
