Funny Stories!

By Cora

Well as most of you know Mom and Grandma Jo watched a really funny movie last night. "New In Town". I think it just reminded them of funny things they! Well it had to be funny, because I'm sure the neighbors could hear Grandma Jo laughing out loud. Mom told me stories of how she would be on the bench for basketball games and Grandma would start laughing and everyone on the bench would look at Mom. Grandma was on the other side of a really big gym!!!!!

Anyway, they've been telling funny stories and laughing this morning and I thought I'd tell a funny story about Mom.

Mom has the same problem as Grandma Jo, or so she says, with holding on to her car keys when she leaves her car and locks it. So yeah she locks her keys in her car often. She did it when she was here at home and come to find out that her extra house key was in the locked car too, so Mom had to break into the house. That isn't the first time she has had to break into the house either......

While Mom and I were in Texas, before she was married to Dad, Mom flushed her keys down a toilet!!!!! I know, how in the hell do you do that? Anyway, Mom and a couple of friends were driving around looking for rental houses so Mom and Dad could get a house together! They had to stop at a gas station and Mom had to go pee! Well it was a new gas sation with the new toilelts that suck like a airplane toilet! Mom was going to flush and had her keys in her had. While she was flushing the keys fell into the toilet and she tried.... "NOOOOOO"....to grab them. It was her car key, romote unlock, and house key that went down the into the sewer. As mom left the bathroom, I'm sure as embarased and red as could be, she waited for everyone to leave the store, but had her friend Stacey stay back. Once everyone was gone, she asked the cashier if they had a plunger, cause she had flushed her keys down the toilet. Well they had one, but it was ripped! Those darn toilets did a number on the plunger!!!! Needless to say, Mom, Stacey and Rami were stuck at the gas station!

Mom called our neighbor, who happened to be home. He came a got Mom and brought her to the house. Now remember, the house keys were on the key ring in the sewer too! Mom broke into the garage door and into the house and got her last set of car keys! The Neighbor took her back and Rami, Stacey and Mom were off again shopping for rental homes. Mom did leave the cashier her name and number and said, "Just in case SOMETHING comes up! No pun intended!"

Well Mom's older sister Leah gave her a nice gag gift for christmas.....a floatable key ring!!!!
