"Hi, Mom!" - Fiftyworder

This is funny !!!!!

lol...sounds very familiar......

George, funny,sad, and true. Thanks!

Cheryl, thanks for commenting. And I've got another starting college in the fall. What wii I do??

I think you and I have the same son! (Mine wrecked 3 Jeeps and "lost" another.)

Nancy, Oh man! Three! Wow, I can't even begin to feel your pain.

This was great and so, so true.... ahve one in College in St. Paul.... called last night....

Colleen, thanks for commenting. I'm contemplating having my number changed so I can only call him. Nah! I wouldn't really do that.

LOL Serina, so funny. You know him too well, huh? Nancy, how do you "lose" a Jeep?

1.) By the time he wrecked the third, when I answered the phone, and he said "Maaa.......", I shrieked and said "No! Do not even tell me you had another accident!" and his answer was "Gee, Mom, thanks for asking if I'm okay," making ME the bad guy. Ah, kids!
2.) Well, you get a bunch of parking tickets, and then one day it gets impounded, and then you have to gather the money to get it out, and some time goes by, and you go to try and con your way out of this mess, and they say "Oh, they took that Jeep to some other yard," and then some more time goes by, and no one really knows where it is...
When I asked (silly me) he said "Ma, you gotta chill. You worry too much."
I no longer ask.
If he calls and tells me he was in an accident, I can say "Gee, Jon, I'm sorry to hear that," and if he says "Hey, Ma, I'm gonna buy another Jeep," and I say "Gee, Jon, that's great," and when that one gets wrecked, I'll say "Gee, Jon, that too bad. I hope you're okay...."

You've just summed up four years of wxperience in 50 words. You done good, girl.

People all around the world are saying YES!. Moya
