Mom was a Funny Lady!

One of the funny stories about my Mom, one that shows her sense of humor took place the weekend Donald Trump separated from Ivana – before he married Marla Maples. 

When I got home from church that Sunday Mom took me aside and said we needed to go to the grocery store.  She wanted it to be just the two of us.  When we got there she went right to the check out lanes and started looking through the tabloids.  The Tampa Tribune had an article in it that day that said all of the tabloids had the Donald Trump separation on the front page except one.  They told what was on the front of that paper and that was all Mom needed.  She had to purchase that tabloid for Mike.  What was the story in that tabloid?  It was how to perform your own hair transplant using the hair in your arm pit, complete with pictures.  Mom was so excited to bring that tabloid home to Mike and gave it to him with a straight face.  Straight face for about 15 seconds and then they both cracked up with laughter!  My Mother had a great sense of humor.
