DrEAMi! #15

Yay! My brain worked like it's supposed to, and you are reading this post on the correct date! Do you think I should use my planner to maybe write down the dates of DrEAMi linky parties? Put a reminder in my phone? Ya, sounds like a plan.

I do not mean to offend anyone religious with this squirrels joke a good friend sent me, but I just have to share it with all you squirrel-chasers, and I hope you will take it in the light-hearted way it is meant.

The Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation.  
After much prayer and consideration, they concluded the squirrels were predestined to be 
there and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.

At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery.  The deacons 
met and decided to put a water-slide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves.  
The squirrels liked the slide and, unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim so twice 
as many squirrels showed up the following week.

The Lutheran church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures.  
So, they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist church.  
Two weeks later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the water-slide.

But the Catholic church came up with a very creative strategy!  They baptised all the 
squirrels and made them members of the church.  Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter and funerals.

Not much was heard from the Jewish synagogue; they took the first squirrel and circumcised him.  
They haven't seen a squirrel since.

Well, what project has you by your bushy tail and bright eyes? Once again, I am SORELY tempted, but I have had no choice but to resist due to other deadlines I had and still have this month.

  3. Love the squirrel joke. I'm trying to resist any kind of Dreami. Must admit I'd love to join your Plus Playtime QAL.

  6. Those cheeky squirrels! So, only completed or worked on Dreami’s? I am always confused. I do have one I finished and one I bought fabric for.... Let me know if they are to be done, or just a Dreami!

  7. Ha! Now that was funny! I even read it out loud to my DH :) No real Dreamis for me this week, just relaxed puttering in the studio.

  8. Thanks for the humor. I am a true squirrel chaser myself. I am working diligently to change that and work on only two projects at a time and not get out any more until they are finished! We'll see how that goes.

  9. I thought I've heard all the funny jokes but I guess not. It made me chuckle. Thanks for letting me link. I am SOOOOO guilty of DrEAMi projects. I am amazed that I ever actually finish anything!

  11. The month has sped by so quickly that I haven't had time to get all DrEAMi..which I feel is not good for my creativity. Thank you for the giggle :-)

  12. The baby quilt was definitely a DrEAMi project for this month :) Now I'm scrambling to finish my blocks for my One Monthly Goal. Maybe I'm distracted by squirrels and also busy like a squirrel gathering nuts. ;)

  13. That did make me laugh! Being Pres I was trying to explain to a friend about how our church is run by a committee and everybody has an equal say in the rights of the squirrels. Being from another church, they didn't get this at all. They had the impression anarchy ruled!

  14. I love your joke! And thanks for reminding me I had a drop-everything-and-make-it project this month - I had forgotten!

  15. As a squirrel chaser, both the rodent and quilty variety, I thoroughly enjoyed the joke (and like Louise, I read it to my DH). I do so need to tame the quilty squirrels.

  16. Reading it on Monday morning (since the weekend was thoroughly devoted to non-stop sewing). Thank you for the smiles and the squirrels :-D If squirrels are an issue, the church can ask them for donations. That usually makes lots of people vanish.

  17. I hope no one was offended -- that was a funny joke.

I wholeheartedly appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment, as they make my day! I answer every one by personal email. :-) Unless... you are a "no-reply" blogger, which can occur for a few reasons. You can get around that by writing out your email within your comment so that I can answer you.
