We may be old but we have sharp memories!

Three sisters, aged 92, 94 and 96, live together. One night the 96-year-old fills the bathtub. She puts one foot in and pauses. "Was I getting in the tub or out?" she yells.
The 94-year-old calls back, "I don't know. I'll come and see." She starts up the stairs and stops. She shouts, "Was I going up or coming down?"The 92-year-old is sitting at the table having tea, listening to her sisters. She shakes her head and says, "I hope I never get that forgetful," and knocks on wood for good measure. Then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door."

A young lawyer went to work generating billable hours at a prestigious law firm. After six months of 20-hour days, the senior partner who had become his mentor told him that if he continued this diligence, he might someday be considered for partner.
After another six months, the electricity went out one night in his office. Not being able to work, he headed home a bit earlier than usual. When he arrived there, his mentor's car was in his driveway and all the lights were out.
Fearing the worst, he quietly entered the front door, removed his shoes, and tiptoed upstairs where he could see by moonlight his wife and his mentor in a passionate, naked embrace.
He stole back down the steps, let his car roll silently out of the driveway without starting it, then drove back to his dark office, where he sat sweating in his chair and said, "Whew, I almost got caught."

LOL!! I have 4 sisters, all of us into our 50s now. You can bet I'll be passing this one along to them. Mom has Alzheimers, so this is particularly appropriate for us. Don't get me wrong, I'd never make light of the disease, but living with it is a real challenge and lots of work and worry and wondering if that's where we'll all be in 30 years, so you see we can all do with some laughter. Thanks so much for sharing!

You're welcome, flipper! And thanks to you too because you didn't get me wrong as well! :p I'd never make fun of people's conditions. I actually find the three sisters in the story very charming. Good to know that you liked it and that you take life light-heartedly. Wish you all the best! :p

Thank you! But you need not worry. With a family like yours as shown in your avatar, I'm sure you're far from living the same fate as the three sisters'.
