I'm a stay at home mother of two, born in the Midwest, living in Maine. I'm married to my best friend , and have three girls. My days are full of laughter, sometimes tears, but always satisfying and inspiring!

We plan the way we want to live, but only God makes us able to live it.
Sven and Ole worked together in a Minnesota factory ... and both were laid off. So ... they went to the Unemployment Office together.
Asked his occupation, Ole said, "Panty Stitcher. I sew da elastic onto da ladies cotton panties." The clerk looked up Panty Stitcher. Finding it classified as unskilled labor, she gave Ole $300 a week in unemployment compensation.
Sven, when asked his occupation replied, "Diesel Fitter". The clerk looked up Diesel Fitter ... and it was classified as a skilled job. So, the clerk gave Sven $600 a week in unemployment compensation.
When Ole Found this out, he was furious! He stormed back into the office to find out why his friend and co-worker was collecting double his benefits. The clerk explained, "Panty Stitchers are unskilled labor and Diesel Fitters are skilled labor."
"Vat skill?" yelled Olie. "I sew da elastic on da panties. Sven puts dem over his head and says, "Yah, ......... DIESEL FITTER".
(If you don't understand a word of this, then you're not Norwegian or from Minnesota!!! To bad!)
