"May the best day of your past Be the worst day of your future." My Dad always wished me this Irish Blessing and I want it to matter today and every other day in my life.

Sarah !~!
Travel has become a part of our existence; I never would
have imagined my life would turn out this way.
As I lay back on the couch of pillows I can see Abraham sitting in the
entrance of our great tent. I can’t
blame him the heat is stifling today. As
I just lay there I see Abraham jump up and run out to meet someone. My curiosity got the best of me once again. Hmm, three men talking to Abraham and if I
know my husband he will be here in an instant arranging something to eat and
drink.
As I reach my couch of comfortable cushions Abraham enters
the tent. “Sarah!” Abraham runs into to
the tent. “Yes my Lord” I answer as he reaches my couch of pillows. “Quickly make bread and use our finest flour.” He said as he takes my hands and lifts me
from my laying position. No argument from me, as I rise. He shoves me on my way to the back of the
tent. “Bring me three ounces of our best
flour.” As I knead the bread and get it
ready to bake I can hear Abraham running around the camp.
“Bring me one of our choice calves; I also want curds and
milk.” Abraham calls out to the servants.
All the food is ready and Abraham comes back into the tent “Sarah!” he calls out to me. “Yes my Lord.” I answer as I walk towards him and hand the
bread to him. Taking the bread from me
Abraham leaves the tent and walks over to the three travellers. My curiosity always gets the best of me. I walk over to the tents entrance but I don’t
want Abraham or the travellers to see me.
I don’t want to miss a thing today.
Abraham sits down with them as they eat and drink. “Where is your wife Sarah?” they ask him.
“She is in the tent.”
he said.
Then the LORD said, “I will surely return to you about this
time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son.”
Tee-hee how funny now that I am old and worn out will I
actually bear a child? Really?
Then the LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say,
‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’ Is anything too hard for the LORD? I will return to you at the appointed time
next year and Sarah will have a son.”
When I heard the reply and realised that the LORD heard me
it felt as though my heart would fail me, I have to protect myself. Abraham called me to them. “Sarah!”
Walking out of the tent I stood before them. Abraham asks, “Did you laugh on hearing the
LORDs words?”
“I did not laugh.” I stated as I stood before them.
The LORD said, “Yes, you did laugh.”
I didn’t say anything after that I excused myself and
returned to the tent. It’s so embarrassing
to be caught out.

Joke of the day .... sent to me by one of my friends tee hee so funny
The Pastor's Ass
The Pastor entered his donkey in a race and
it won.
The Pastor was so pleased with the donkey
that he entered it in the
race
again and it won again.
The local paper read:
PASTOR'S
ASS OUT FRONT.
The Bishop was so upset with this kind of
publicity that he ordered
the
Pastor not to enter the donkey in another race.
The next day the local paper headline
read:
BISHOP
SCRATCHES
PASTOR'S
ASS.
This was too much for the Bishop so he
ordered the Pastor to get
rid
of the donkey.
The Pastor decided to give it to a Nun in a
nearby convent.
The local paper, hearing of the news, posted
the following headline
the
next day:
NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The Bishop fainted.
He informed the Nun that she would have to
get rid of the donkey so
she
sold it to a farmer for $10.
The next day the paper read:
NUN
SELLS ASS FOR $10.
This was too much for the Bishop so he
ordered the Nun to buy back
the
donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run
wild.
The next day the headlines read:
NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.
The Bishop was buried the next day.
The moral of the story is . . . being
concerned about public opinion
can
bring you much grief and misery . . even shorten your
life.
So be yourself and enjoy life.
Stop worrying about everyone else's ass and
you'll be a lot happier
and
live longer!
Have a nice’day!
