An elderly couple, Harold and Edna, had been married for over 60 years.
They had shared everything, talked about everything, and kept no secrets from each other—except for one.
Edna had a shoebox in her closet, and she had told Harold never to open it or ask about it. For decades, he respected her wishes, never giving the box a second thought.
One day, Edna fell gravely ill, and the doctor told Harold she didn’t have much time left. With a heavy heart, Harold sat beside his wife and said, “Edna, I love you. We’ve been through everything together. Before you go, can I finally know what’s inside that shoebox?”
Edna smiled weakly and nodded. “Go ahead and open it, dear.”
Harold opened the box and was astonished to find two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000!
Confused, he asked, “Edna, what is this?”
She took his hand and explained, “Before we got married, my grandmother gave me some advice. She told me that every time I got angry with you, instead of arguing, I should crochet a doll.”
Harold’s eyes welled up with tears. After all these years together, there were only two dolls in the box! “Edna,” he said, overcome with emotion, “that means you’ve only been mad at me twice in 60 years?”
She nodded with a sweet smile.
Harold beamed. “That’s amazing, my love. But… what about all this money?”
“Oh,” Edna said, patting his hand. “That’s from selling all the other dolls.”
An elderly couple was having trouble remembering things, so they went to the doctor.
The doctor said, “You should start writing things down to help you remember.”
Later that night, the wife said, “Honey, I’d like some ice cream. Could you get me some from the kitchen?”
The husband said, “Of course.”
The wife added, “Write it down so you don’t forget!”
The husband replied, “I don’t need to write it down! You want ice cream.”
She said, “I also want strawberries on top. Write it down!”
The husband rolled his eyes. “I won’t forget!”
She added, “And whipped cream! Please write it down!”
He sighed. “I got it! Ice cream, strawberries, whipped cream. No need to write it down.”
Twenty minutes later, he came back and handed her a plate of scrambled eggs and bacon.
The wife stared at the plate and yelled, “I told you to write it down! Where’s my toast?!”
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
