A hole in your socks ,doggie texts and chuckles



Really sorry--I have had to remove this post as it will soon appear in a book. Making it available online would have been very unfair to my publisher who has placed so much trust in me. I hope you enjoy the other posts as much as you enjoyed this one. A heartfelt thanks for your support and understanding.Thanks for continuing to read what I write.

  8. ha ha ha... people ask the same about underwear. They ask u if u have a hole in ur underwear, and when u say NO, hiding ur embarrassment, they ask u how did u put it on? LOL! I liked the tail text.

  21. Oh the socks one was really funny. I told this to my daughter and now she is going to ask her lil brother and father.This PJ is going like a chain mail now.

    When my husband went on tour while my children were young. My daughter used to wrap his bath towel around her while sleeping and my son would wear my husband's bermuda shorts.They would not allow me to wash them till he came back.

  42. I really like this bit. Here I am slogging my butt off away from home and see what happens:
    - the kids are pleased that I am not around.
    - Preeti enjoys the attention she is getting and tops it up with a blog post too.
    - her readers instead of sympathising with me, talk about her tail and all that stuff and about Purvi's sense of humour.
    I do not see any humour in this matter. Just a conspiracy to keep me travelling and away from home.

    But have to admit in all honesty though, that like a puppy I do come back running home and enjoy it (whether or not the kids get a chance to be with mom or not).

    ReplyDelete
