Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 1,627 | Donna, that one had me laughing so hard! Good idea though, I need to do something. I can clear a room in about 3 seconds now and the sad part is that I giggle like a five year old about it!

Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 794 | Minnie, Each time I am with my 2 year old niece, Olivia, she smiles, and says, "Oops!! I passed gas."  Too cute, especially since ahe has her own little speech-ease in which she speaks. I sincerely hope you are feeling better. My nephew, Zack, Livy's brother, says, "Wow! I just laucnched an air biscuit!!"

Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 1,627 | I'm glad to see that I'm not the only grown up that can get a laugh over bodily functions! It has gotten worse today, I asked my husband to bring me some Febreeze and he launched it into the room like a grenade, didn't even come in. The only one that will stay with me is my dependable dog, Lucy. And I suspect that's only because her gas smells far worse than mine ever will. Mercedes came and asked if she could shut my bedroom door because she had company over. I thanked her for being so thoughtful of me..........she grinned and said, "mom, I don't want that smell coming down the hallway into my bedroom". I laughed for ten minutes over that.
Well, good night everyone, and here's hoping for a better smelling tomorrow.
