[)Hi everyone/Solution for being family joke??

[Guest guest]

Hello to everyone! Hope everyone is doing OK and JC got over her headache!

 

 

 

I “think” I am going to do something pretty profound for my carnivore “fun

loving” family once I a.) assure myself its not going to hurt anyone’s feelings

as that’s the last thing I want to, and b.) Be worth the trouble!

 

 

 

A co-worker, who lives out in the country, has several neighbors who farm. One

of which has turkeys. Thanksgiving is at my house this year so I think it would

be hilarious to let everyone know I am “providing the turkey”, and then bring a

baby turkey to my house and keep outside in the back courtyard. When people

come over I can ask “who wants to go get the turkey?”

 

 

 

I think that it would be funny and would only be doing it in jest, but I am

afraid some members of my family would think that I was trying to make a

statement instead. (Which, by the way, happens to be true. How else do they

think the bird got to the store anyway! Its pretty profound the more I think

about it! Most people don’t want to look at the reality…that the thing they are

eating was once actually living!)

 

Knowing what the bird is being raised for I also don’t think that I could take

the poor bird back once my little joke was over. Can you imagine my neighbors

surprise when they hear gobbling sounds!

 

 

 

(Plus my family would REALLY be steamed when they realized I really was not

providing a turkey!)

 

 

 

With kindness,

 

Beth

to Beth first. I wanted to tell something funny. And

that is, one time my brother in-law asked me how I

like being married to a mouse. I said well it's better

then being married to a rat. He thought that was SO

funny. Anyrate back to your problem, I do feel for you

cause it would get rather old saying the same old

jokes everytime they come and see you. You could

mention that they must be getting old cause they can't

seem to come up with any new jokes in their heads.

Just a thought. Good luck to you and I hope they will

be a little nicer to you. Take care and I'm out of

here. My headache is starting to come back and really

I must get to bed. I'm so tired out and had this dumb

headache all day. Sure does suck. Night everyone and

take care. JC

This isn't a man's job.

Oh yes it is, his wife retorted, quoting 2 Kings

I will wipe, Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping

it and turning it upside down
