Marriage Vows

Ken and Marjorie finished their breakfast at the retirement home and were relaxing in the library.

"You know," said Marjorie, "today, in most marriage ceremonies, they don't use the word 'obey' anymore."

"Too bad, isn't it?" retorted Ken. "It used to lend a little humor to the occasion."

 

I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT LABOR DAY AND GET A LOT DONE OR NOT!!!!

GOD BLESS YOU

SEE YOU SUNDAY!!!
