February Meeting
When: Thursday, February 19, 7:15 pm
Where: Kathy's House
What: Essential Bodywear

Are you wearing the wrong size bra?
Does your bra ride up your back?
Do your shoulder straps dig in?
Do your shoulder straps keep falling down?
Are you constantly "pulling" at your bra?
Are you "spilling" out of your bra?
Does your underwire poke you?
Do you refuse to wear an underwire?
Do you wear 2 sports bras to get the support you need?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then you are among the 85% of women who are wearing the wrong size and style bra.
Every woman's frame and shape is different. Ebonye offers professional fittings in a comfortable, supportive atmosphere. Her goal is to bring out the best in each woman by educating her on the benefit of proper fitting bodwear and providing her with the individual attention she deserves.
Our February meeting will be at Kathy's house. Please RSVP
Kathy if you'll be attending.
There will be a representative there from Essential Bodywear to help you with a bra fitting. They also carry panties, shapewear & loungewear. While people are being fitted or if you choose not to be fitted we will play 99 and catch up as we alway do.  If you're not out of town for President's week I hope you can make it!

MARRIAGE


************************************

Marriage - (Part I)

A typical macho man marries a typical good-looking woman and after the wedding, he laid down the following rules:

"I'll be home when I want, if I want and at what time I want and I don't expect any hassle from you. I expect a great dinner to be on table unless I tell you that I won't be home for dinner. I'll go hunting, fishing, boozing and card-playing when I want with my old buddies and don't you give me a hard time about it. Those are my rules! Any comments?"

His new bride says, "No, that's fine with me. Just understand that there will be sex here at seven o'clock every night whether you're here or not."

(SHE'S GOOD!)
************************************
Marriage (Part II)

Husband and wife have a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary! The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads: "Here Lies My Wife - Cold as Ever."

"Yeah?" she replies. "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads: "Here Lies My Husband Stiff At Last."

(HE ASKED FOR IT!)
******************************
Marriage (Part III)

Husband (a doctor) and his wife are having a fight at the breakfast table. Husband gets up in a rage and says, "You're no good in bed either!" and storms out of the house.

After sometime, he realizes he was nasty and decides to make amends and rings her up.

She comes to the phone after many rings, and the irritated husband says, "What took you so long to answer the phone?"

She says, "I was in bed."

"In bed this early, doing what?"

She says, "Getting a second opinion!"

(YEP, HE HAD THAT ONE COMING, TOO!)
******************************************
Marriage (Part IV)

A man has six children and is very proud of his achievements. He is so proud of himself, that he starts calling his wife, "Mother of Six" in spite of her objections.

One night, they go to a party. The man decides that it's time to go home and wants to find out if his wife is ready to leave as well.

He shouts at the top of his voice, "Shall we go home 'Mother of Six?'

His wife, irritated by her husband's lack of discretion, shouts right back, "Anytime you're ready, Father of Four."

(DITTO!)
**************************************
Marriage (Part V)

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM."

He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight.

Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."
**************************************

Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

God may have created man before woman, but there is always a rough draft before the masterpiece.
