The new woman
A man was complaining:
Oh Lord, please have mercy on me, I work so hard, meantime my
wife stays at home, I would give anything if you would grant me one
wish
"switch me into my wife" she's got it easy at home I want to
teach her a lesson
of how tough a man's life is.
As God is Merciful, He was listening he felt sorry for this soul and
granted his wish.
Next morning the "new woman" wakes up at dawn, makes lunch boxes,
prepares breakfast, wakes up the kids for school, puts a load
of clothes
in the washer, takes the meat out of the freezer, drives the kids to
school, on his way back stop at the gas station, cashes a check,
pays the
electricity and phone bills, picks up some clothes from
the cleaners, quickly
goes to the market. It was 1: 00 o'clock already, he made
the beds, took the
clothes out of the washer and put another load in, he vacuumed
the house,
made some rice, went to pick up the kids from school had an argument
with he kids.
As soon as he got home he fed the kids, washed the dirty
dishes,
he hung the damp clothes he had washed on the chairs because
it was raining
outside. He helped the kids with their homework, watched some
TV while he
ironed some clothes, prepared dinner, he gave the kids a bath
and put them to
sleep. At 9:00 o'clock he was so tired and he went to bed.
The next morning he prays to God once again:
Oh Lord, what was I thinking when I asked you to grant my wish,
I
can't take it anymore. I beg you please switch me back to myself,
please oh please.
Then he heard God's voice speaking to him, saying:
Dear son of course I'll switch you back into yourself but there's
one minor detail, you will have to wait 9 months because last
night
you got pregnant.
