sWITCHED FOR JUST ONE DAy

Man was tired of going to
work everyday, 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.'
God, in His infinite wisdom,
granted the man's wish. ... The
next morning, sure enough, the
man awoke as a woman (his wife)... 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 make a deposit, went
grocery shopping, then drove
home to put away the groceries,
paid the bills & balanced the check
book. He cleaned the cat's litter
box & bathed the dog... Then, it
was already 1 PM & he hurried to
make the beds, do the laundry,
vacuum, dust, sweep and mop the
kitchen floor. Ran to the school to
pick up the kids & got into an
argument with them on the way
home. Set out milk & cookies and
got the kids organized to do their
homework. Then, set up the
ironing board & watched TV while
he did the ironing. At 4:30 he
began peeling potatoes &
washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops &
snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the
kitchen, ran the dishwasher,
folded laundry, bathed the kids &
put them to bed. At 9 PM He was
exhausted, 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.. Amen!' 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.
But, you'll have to wait till 9PM
