A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his
wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
"Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my
wife merely stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through, so please allow her body
to switch with mine for a day. Amen.
God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. The next
morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman.
He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids,
Set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their
lunches,Drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry
cleaning,took it the cleaners
And stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery
shopping, Paid the bills and balanced the checkbook.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds, do
the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to the
school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way
home.
Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do
their homework, Then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the
ironing. At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for
salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper. After
supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the
kids,and put them to bed. At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores
weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed
and said,Lord,
I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my
wife's
being
able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."
The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied, "My son, I feel you have
learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the
way they were.
You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnantlast night."
