Live Action Pickles
My children often find the antics of the Grandma and Grandpa in the comic strip Pickles amusing. Because the kids and I lived with my parents during the year Dale was in Korea and my parents have visited frequently, the kids have noticed a few similarities to what happens in the comics. Last week, Pickles had a whole series of comics based on the Grandpa looking for his glasses, which were on the top of his head. Yesterday, my Dad told the kids the following story… He had been sitting in the bathroom trying to read the Bible, but was having trouble seeing clearly. (My sister insists I put in the explanation of why my Dad was sitting in the bathroom reading the Bible. My Mom had gone to bed early and my Dad did not want to turn the light on and wake her up. So, he went into the bathroom to read.) He thought the reason that he could not see clearly was because of the lighting. After a long while, he finished reading and went to put away the glasses in his case in his shirt pocket. He could not put them away , however, because his case already contained his glasses. It was at this point that he realized he had mistakenly put on my Mom’s glasses and had been trying to read with them.
Yes nothing like an Organizational...
ok ok i admit…i’m guilty of such things….
only, when i take my contacts off and forget to reach for my glasses first…it becomes a search mission cause i can’t see to find them…
then i have to call for dwayne to come to my rescue
tee hee
i see…i have so much to look forward to.
I’m glad you have moments like these with your dad
I never insisted…. I’m guessing mom told you that. I’ll have to admit, the Bible reading on the toilet did bother me a bit.
