Dear Winifred; Dec. 22

Advice (NOT good!) column

 

Warning; advice given is NOT politically correct!

 

     "Dear Winifred, I was recently married, and here's the problem, my new husband expects me to do all of the household chores, and these include getting up at 4 am and milk the cows (we live on a farm) He says household chores are not a man's job;  that he works all day to bring the money home to provide for us, and he's beat at the end of the day and just wants to relax.  I feel this is grossly unfair; what do you think?  Signed Worn to a Frazzle."

 

 

     "Dear Worn to a Frazzle, when I read your letter I had to look at a calendar to make sure this was 2013.  That way of thinking went out with the invention of electricity.  Well, not that far back, as I guess there's still Neanderthal's walking upright who apparently didn't get the message.  Do yourself a favor, the next time  your husband falls asleep, take a good look at his hands, to see if there are bloody scrape marks on his knuckles, where he apparently drags them on the ground when he walks; I've got some bad news for you, honey, you're married to a cave man; I've got some advice for Knuckle-Dragging Man; why don't you grab a cow tit at 4.30 in the morning on a freezing morning, in the dark, and see how you like it?  Winifred"

Very cute... When he sleeps check his knuckles for scrape marks.. Dear Winifred milk the cow at 4 am cause if you had something better to do wouldn't you be doing it?

[Michael Stevens]

Thanks Kimbers, it pays to look at the commenting person's name before replying; personally, I can't think of a single thing better to do at 4 or 4.30 in the morning than milking a cow!

Didn't she know what she was getting into when she married a farmer?
Or did that happen later? A woman marrie a man who seems like a reasonable human being, and then he wants to live in the country...

[Michael Stevens]

You're over-thinking this (The truth is I really didn't think about it!)

[Cryingkate]

Thank you Michael,
Your poem just got me help with dishes,gutting the cooked squash and the floor's cleaned.

What a miraculous Poem, Works like magic :-)

[Michael Stevens]

Thank you, and I'll pass your thanks to Winifred!

[Cryingkate]

[Michael Stevens]

Hey! Apparently, it's the gift/poem that keeps on giving!

[Cryingkate]

Or the works that keeps on working :-)

[Michael Stevens]

Gift, work, it's all the same!

[Cryingkate]

OMG I'm suppose to be on writers Vacation..... Here I am now sucked into Winfield's world and enjoying every ounce. Hey sorry you had to get in an accident to be in position to write these , but lucky for us.
Wow this is Great stuff....Priceless.. this needs to go viral........

[Michael Stevens]

Thank you, and is viral like a head cold?

[Cryingkate]

Naw! that kind is too stuffy. I mean the kind that spreads from email to email and gives it a facebook look :-)

[Michael Stevens]

No, I knew what kind of vital you meant; I just don't want it to go virus; we have enough of those!

[Michael Stevens]

Ooops, viral, not vital; what the heck is that?

[Cryingkate]

Careful you might incriminate your self.LOL or find yourself all alone with Winfield...

[Michael Stevens]

NOOOOOOOO!

[Cryingkate]

Then do as I say and you may be spared...Write !write !write !

PMSL

[Michael Stevens]

Okay, whatever you say, just keep Winifred well away from me. Oh, that's right; she springs from me!

[Vidya Bacchus]

Hahaha she is absolutely right in this one.Times have changed men are supposed to help at home.There are a million things that you have to do in a day in a home and it requires some help, not someone claiming that they are beat because they actually get paid for all the work they do:)

[Michael Stevens]

Thanks and I think Winifred is right on this one!

[Vidya Bacchus]

You are welcome and ditto:)
