OH LORD HAVE MERCY ON MY SOUL .... I JUST FLASHED THE 'TERMINEX' MAN!
o.k. .. here's the story of it .. and i'm stickin' to it!
here i am outside in my t-shirt and skivvies .. plantin' plants ... i come trudgin' across the back-yard sweatin' like a 'ho' in church ... salty sweat pouring down over my eyes so's i cudn't barely hardly see ... so i grabbed a-holt of the bottom of my shirt and pulled it up over my face .. catching a slight breeze as my big left boobie flapped to and fro .. i wiped my face .. dropped my shirt .. and i wuz starin' smack dab into the horror-stricken' face of the terminex man who had come to inspect! well .. he inspected alright!
criminy .. all i could do was bust out laughing! i think about half the men in the state of kentucky have now seen me in some sorta' stage of nekkekdness!
i thought the poor man would drop dead right there in his tracks! NEITHER OF US EVEN ADMITTED TO WHAT HE SAW!
when i was able to utter something even close to intelligible again .. i simply asked: "you the termite inspector?"
i mean reeeeeeeeeeely ... here we live BURIED IN A FOREST AT THE END OF THE ROAD .. TOTALLY PRIVATE AWAY FROM CIVILIZATION .. AND YET .. THE VERY MOMENT ANY MAN HEADS DOWN THAT HILL UNBEKNOWNST TO ME .. I MANAGE TO LET 'EM HAVE IT (with BOTH BARRELS .. if you know whut i mean!)
(remember the preacher man, his elderly father and teenage son catching me in my underoos when i first moved down here? ... and the time i showed up scantily-clad in my leopard-skin tights and t-shirt with my RAW BONES FROZEN ... in the dead of winter in a snowstorm at my neighbor's door cuz' i had locked myself out of my house!)
i'm gonna' get me a 're-pew-ta-shun' down here .. if i haven't already!
... and as the subject sez: keep in mind that: june 5th .. i turn 65 years old!!
now THAT should give you a giggle ...
True Friends, Frannie

That is TOO funny! I had SUCH a good "vision" of what happened - Oh, Frannie - you are absolutely too much. I love it!!! - you may have made a permanent impression on that termite man!
XOXO, Libbie

Sounds to me like your terminix man was a real gentleman. To ignore the obviously embarassing is a true sign of that. God bless him.
Peace |

Oh Frannie- I am sure that nothing topped that for the Terminex man today!! I bet the next time he comes, it's with his horn announcing his presence from a mile down the road!!  You make me laugh so much. I needed that today. I won't forget your birthday- I'm a June gal myself.

j.p. ... KENTUCKY is a wonderful land of gentlemen and gentlewomen .. but i'm told over and over again .. that they LOVE having a resident 'wild woman' to shake things up a bit from time to time. When Honey Hunk Hank got home .. they laughed about his 'encounter' with me .. and sat on the front porch drinking iced tea and talking for over an hour (mostly about the Boston Red Sox .. terminex guy is a bo-sox fan too!)
I also love how that as i become such good friends with even the 'blue-haired' gentlewomen and gentlemen.. we all start telling stories .. and even the 'straightest-laced' ones have some bawdy tales in their pasts .. some much wilder than even mine!
Had to laugh yesterday when i was in town .. ran into a shoppe to visit a friend .. the preacher man saw me go in .. and followed. He lamented the fact that I will not include him on my "kentucky ramblings" list! Told him i'd have to 'clean up' my langauge now and then .. he just hugged me and told me that even preacher men are real people. God ... how i LOVE this state and it's people! xo, frannie

Frannie- My DH would disagree with you about Geminis being a lot of fun. But I think we are!! It's the "other twin" part of me that gets into trouble all the time- it seems nothing can stay in it's original place or be used for it's original purpose and that makes my family crazy. Hmmm, I wonder if that is a bit intentional on my part!!
I must take after my grandmother on my dad's side- My dad came home from school one afternoon to find Gram hammering away at a post in the kitchen with a sledge hammer. Turns out it was the support post for the upstairs bathroom!! All she wanted was a place to put her breakfast nook! Well, after a lot of work on the part of my dad and his brothers and his dad, she got what she wanted! She was no dummy. She got her dining room stairs fixed by taking off all of the treads. Actually, I am just like her!!!
Have a great time at Disney and a happy birthday to you and Honey Hunk Hank!!

Frannie, Thanks for the good laugh. I am sure the Terminix man will never be the same. Wonder what it is about a boob popping out that just makes you laugh...even if it's yours. One of my very favorite quotes is from Joan Rivers. When someone asked her what she thought her best feature was, she replied, "My breasts...although now I have to wear open-toed shoes to show them off!"

This was way more information than any of us needed to know! I feel sorry for the Terminix man -- he's probably still in shock.

Frannie, Frannie, Frannie,
Oh, my goodness, that was good. You paint a great story and make it so vivid. I can just see it happening, like being a fly on the wall. Oh, how funny. I haven't had a good laugh all week, this topped the charts. The funny part is that it was all so innocent and unexpected, but quite natural. Who doesn't do that? Fortunately, most of us don't have a surprise audience. But only you, Frannie, can handle that with such country grace and humor. Your story-telling gifts can make the most out of something the rest of us - I really mean me - would just as soon dismiss and forget it ever happened. You live life the best.
Thanks so much for "perking" up my day and bringing a smile across the miles.
Hey, did Twigs say you are coming to MO? When and Where and how long? I feel celebrity excitment about to erupt. If you don't mind saying, of course.
Happy Early Birthday!!! I don't send that kind of greeting out very often, usually I'm the one keeping Belated Birthday card designers in business, but I wish you all the best and hope you have another year of cherished memories and fabulous adventures. God has blessed you in many ways and given us all a gift through you.
In His hands,
Lynda L.
Pray in faith and you will not live in doubt.

Oh, Frannie, You're such a stitch! I had my one-piece bathing suit drag down in the surf at a church trip to the beach one year...showing all from the waist up. My Sweetie was in front of me trying to demonstrate what I needed to do--to dumbstruck to TELL me. My face is red just thinking about it. We changed churches. ;0 (soonafter, but not because of my indecent display.)

Frannie,
This was too funny!!! I'm sure you gave the terminix guy a story he can tell for years. I'm so impressed with your ability to handle the situation as you did.
Happy Birthday ,and try to wear some thing besides your "birthday suit"for your special day. LOL :)

Frannie -
Thanks for all your humor - I love you, without "knowing" you! I forwarded this to my Mom, whom I told you once would love you as you are both so much alike! She doesn't "do" computers, so it'll go through my Dad first, but he'll love the story too! Two of my 3 boys are Gemini's also - one just turned 20, one just turned 12 yesterday. The other has to share the troubles of Cancer with me in July! I sure would love to really meet you some day... |

Frannie, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! I just got back from a slightly stressful "vacation" with my sweetie watching his grandson graduate from high school....(I knew absolutely no one except for my sweetie) so I am on here checking out to see what has been going on while I've been gone. I too almost fell off my chair. And I just had to read it to my sweetie.......we have both had a wonderful chuckle!! wish I could meet you in person, you are truly a wonderful woman!! Thanks for the laugh. Georgette
