Our very own insurance company sent us this today:
This was printed inside the “invitation.” Please note the question at the top:
Really? You DO have our stats, right Marketing Department? Remember us – the Worley family? Who needs three insurance cards to fit all the kids’ names?
Don’t you know that we already have our hands full, and we know what causes that, and yes, they’re all ours, and no, we’re not trying for a basketball, soccer, football or hockey team?
And this, just 2 weeks after my 46th birthday and Mick is already into his second half century of life (now that sounds old!) :-D.
Thanks for the offer, but I don’t think we’ll be signing up for your Maternity Management Service.
P.S. I showed this Mick when he got home and his response was a weak “Heh.”
Oh my goodness!!! I thought you were making an announcement! I always loved it when we got mail for dating services. After we were married, and with my married name!
ReplyDeleteHA! No announcements here, unless you count "I'm NOT pregnant" as an announcement. :-D
DeleteFunny, I'd forgotten about those dating service ads. We used to get them way back when, too.
Stupid Google Account. I have to write it all over again....grumble.
Delete"Dear Marketing Department:
As we have successfully produced SEVERAL children on our own, and as I am presently 46, we are not interested in signing up for your Maternity Management Service.
PS Thank you for the laugh we shared with all our blog readers."

Quick family story: Mother and Daddy moved into this house June 1953, when Mother had just turned 42. I arrived in March 1954. WE moved into this house March 1996, just as I turned 42. David was a senior and Jonathan was 4. We held our breath for the whole next year!
Thank you for persevering with Blogger's ridiculous commenting functionality, Florence - your comment cracked me up! :-D
DeleteI've gotten to where I type my comment, select it and copy it, then try to publish it, because it usually takes me 3 times to leave a comment on a blog! Is it really that difficult to fix, Blogger?
