She told the kids to sit on the bench in the graveyard and not move till she got back. Then she went to see the landlord who asked if she had any children.She said'" yes I do, but they are in the cemetary." <BR/><BR/>He felt very sorry for her and had her sign the lease, which did not mention anything one way or the other about children.<BR/><BR/>She moved in with the 5 kids and he was astonished and said"You told me your children were dead."<BR/>She replied,"NO, I said only that they were in the cemetary, YOU assumed they were dead."<BR/><BR/>She stayed there for 4 years and the landlord forgave her and liked the kids.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-21242590746362865372007-08-08T07:05:00.000-06:002007-08-08T07:05:00.000-06:00I so love these stories.

Kind of like how my life is much more entertaining and interesting to others (like you!) Love them!Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05769700320834756050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-80648357699842880162007-08-08T05:50:00.000-06:002007-08-08T05:50:00.000-06:00Ha, even tho our house was built 62 years after th...Ha, even tho our house was built 62 years after this one you're writing about, it's got plenty of quirks of its own. It's a constant fixer-upper and once upon a time, when I HAD time, I loved tinkering around, painting and doing whatever. Now I feel like it's falling down around my ears, I have so little time to do ANYTHING anymore. But, quirks and all, it has a personality all its own and I love it. It's patient...it's waiting for me. It knows one day my chaotic lifestyle will finally slow down. Trouble is, by then I'll be too old to do anything, haha! Then we'll just settle down and fall apart together.MissKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726021829363492972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-55772365248279677982007-08-08T00:45:00.000-06:002007-08-08T00:45:00.000-06:00Marty, I'm glad you found me.
