Quote of the week!

This was my Mother to Uncle Lonnie at 5:30 AM after he called two previous times within 15 minutes to speak to my Dad before they left on a fishing trip. On the second ring of the third call..."IF THIS PHONE RINGS ONE MORE TIME THIS MORNING...HE'S NOT GOING!" She heard my Dad pick up the phone in the basement and say "Hello" before she slammed the phone down on the reciever so hard that the phone made a ringing sound. Guess what! The phone didn't ring again. Well, she was annoyed with Dad in the first place because he didn't pack his stuff ahead of time so he was digging around the night before when he got home late from the bowling alley...and then she woke him up at 5 and he went back to sleep so she had to wake him up again. Then the phone calls from Lonnie started because he couldn't find the little tarp for the boat. I told Mom that it probably flew out of the boat when Lonnie took it to Elk Creek the night before to fill it up with gas. Mom said that when Dad cleaned out the boat, one of the tarps was laying in the boat...so probably. You know guys, they don't look to make sure everything is secure before they take it down the highway. Anyway, Mom had a field trip for that day with the Summer School kids and she was trying to go back to sleep. Not happy, not happy at all! Dad came back upstairs and was digging around for clothes in the drawers and closet....and when he told her to sleep in she informed him that she had to get up for a field trip....and he was like, "OH!" YEAH....sheesh. I bet Uncle Lonnies eyes popped out of his head when she answered the phone like that....hehehehhe! Dang it, I miss all the fun stuff.
