'Assisted living!'
Ha ha, I loved that!
I've always had a quirky sense
of humor that my family is
quite shocked by, ha ha.
The telephone solicitors...
I let them listen to my music...
they hang up.
Not everyone appreciates 70's rock.
Loved this,
blessings...

no wonder we're friends. quirky is good -anyone can be strictly factual. :)
I may have to let solicitors listen to my music - classical. HA!
-
I love classical too...especially 'Claire De Lune' by Debussey...so pretty!!
-
then I might throw in a little Jimmy Durante. remember him?
-
Yes!!! I remember the nose, ha ha. I've got him on a Christmas song, 'Frosty the Snowman', ha ha...

So funny. I'll have to try a few of these. The pharmacy one would be fun. I suspect the druggist would even laugh too. If not, time to find a new one!

Yes, the tongue is stronger than the sails of a the sea going clipper, or like a brewing storm in the gulf, my mother was the best, but there have been a few others in my past too, you've given some great examples of these instances in your great post Katherine. Well done, great read, blessings Roy

Comment from GARY MACLEAN
True to form. You are taking everyday living and making an entertaining presentation of it.
Just a couple of observations:
Para 1, last sentence: CONSIDER paragraph space after (funny.)
Para 3, 5th sentence: Add comma between (rabies) and (and)
Para 5, 2nd sentence: MAYBE (knowing) should be (Knowing) Capitalization
Para 6, 2nd sentence: (5) should be (five) typically numbers less than 10 are spelled out rather than presented in numeric form.
You have given me ammunition for each of the situations you just talked about. I can hardly wait.

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Haha, thanks for the laugh, Pome Lover. I enjoyed each one
of your possibilities of what to say--esp the one with the
rabid rat. If you have caller ID, I would answer some of the
unknowns with "Pizza Hut, how may I help you?"
Thanks for the ideas, Jan

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
You have a little of Phyllis Diller in your soul, don't you? Did you know humor is one of the most sought-after forms of writing by publishers? Funny children's books are most needed. This is very amusing. Thanks for the smile.

Thanks, Carol. Might give it a try!!
But I would never have the courage to come back with any of the stuff I wrote. We can write things, then blithely move on to another subject. ha!
Thank YOU for the idea for a submission!
Comment from judiverse
This is funny. I believe all of us think of things we'd like to say in those situations. I especially like the one about questions for the pharmacist. One I'd ask would be "Why do I have to pay $300 for a lousy eye drops prescription?" You certainly don't want to give the relatives any cause to believe you need to go to an assisted living facility is another great one. Great humor post. By the way, my congratulations to you for winning those prompt contests recently. When they're blind, I often miss reading them. judi

thanks, Judi. heavens! I'll have to look back to see what I won. :)
By the way who was the pharmaceutical company who made they eye drops for $300???
-
You're welcome. I don't know the manufacturer, but the medication is use is called Cequa. The other names in prescription eye medications are Ziidra and Restasus. They're both about the same price, that on top of what the insurance company pays. judi
