Be careful what you wish for

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife
stayed at home.
He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed, "Dear Lord, I
go to work every day and put in eight hours while my wife merely
stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through, so please create a trade in our
bodies."
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 to
the cleaners and stopped at the bank to draw out money to pay the
power bill and telephone bill, drove to the power company and the
phone company and paid the bills, went grocery shopping, came home
and put away the groceries. He cleaned the cat's litter box and
bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1:00 p.m. and he hurried to make the beds, do the
laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. He ran
to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them
on the way home. He set out cookies and milk 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 PM he began peeling potatoes and washed greens for salads,
breaded the 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 9:00 PM he was
exhausted and though his 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, O Lord 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 have to wait 9 months, though.
You got pregnant last night!!!"

I do that much and more, every day, before 9 AM. Big deal. God wouldn't let me stay a woman. I had too much fun with the Puddin.
I do 9 months standing on my head,
