Today’s post is this month’s Funny Friday, a regular feature published on the last Friday of every month. Funny
Friday is a collaborative project. Each month one of the
participants submits a picture, then we all write 5 captions or
thoughts inspired by that month’s picture. Links to the other
bloggers’ posts are below, click on them and see what they’ve come up
with. I hope we bring a smile to your face as you start your
weekend.
1. Child: Is this what they mean by "split decision?"
Mom: Well, it's certainly proof that it's best to work together.
2. Little Girl (looking at the tree): Mom, does that hurt?
Mom: I don't think so, what do you think?
Little Girl: I don't think I'd want to do the splits for that long.
Mom: Good point.
Mom: Good point.
3. Maple (to his friend the Cottonwood): I heard something about you and your wife, are you OK?
Cottonwood: Yes, unfortunately we hit a rough patch.
Maple: Were you able to work it out?
Cottonwood, No, we decided to split.
4. Tree (to his better half): Honey, I think you've taken social distancing a bit too far.
5. Girlfriend to boyfriend: I think we should take a break.
Boyfriend (disappointed): Why? Don't you like spending time with me?
Girlfriend: I do, but I need a little space. Sometimes it feels like we're joined at the hip.

Just dropped by to say Merry Christmas and have a read
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family Jo-Anne. Thank you for stopping by my blog so often and for commenting on so many of my posts.
DeleteThanks for the laughs, i hope you have had a wonderful Friday.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you laughed. Merry Christmas to you and your family, Mimi.
DeleteMr. and Mrs. Birch no longer wanted to be held in close bondage. Their roots ,however, were deeply bound together. No matter how hard they tried to pull apart, that last hold would not give and they were intertwined at the root. Which evidently proved to be quite satisfactory to them as little Birches sprang up all around them..
ReplyDeleteHa ha, very well done, Donna!
DeleteHahahaha! And ouch in several ways!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's one thing to do the splits, but permanently?
DeleteSometime, I'll tell you about the 'splits' that happened unexpectedly (and painfully) when I tried to do a simple cartwheel. Ouch.
DeleteOh this looks delicious. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Beth, hope you try it.
DeleteA bit of humor and a yummy recipe? Fabulous!
