This mail was voted the best mail of the year:

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day
while his Wife Stayed home.
He wanted her to see what he went through all days.
So he prayed.
“My beloved LORD,
I go to work every day and put in 8 hours
while my wife merely stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through,
so please allow her body to switch with
mine for a day. Amen.”

LORD, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man’s wish.
The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman.

He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate,
awakened the kids, set out their school clothes,
fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove
them to school.
Came home and picked up the dry cleaning,
took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank
to make a deposit.
Went grocery shopping, then drove home to put away the
groceries, paid the bills and balanced the check book.
He cleaned the cat’s litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1 P.M. and
he hurried to make the beds,
do the laundry, vacuum, dust and sweep and
mop the kitchen floor.
Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got
into an argument with them on the way home.
Set out milk and cookies and
got the kids organized to do their homework,
then set up the ironing board and
watched TV while he did the ironing.
At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing
vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops and
snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the kitchen,
ran the dishwasher, folded laundry,
bathed the kids, and put them to bed.
At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and
though his daily chores weren’t finished,
he went to bed where he was expected to make love
which he managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed
and said,
“Forgive me my LORD! I don’t know what I was thinking.
I was so wrong to envy my wife’s being able to stay home all day.
Please, Let us trade back.”

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied,
“My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and
I will be happy to change things back to the way they were.
You’ll just have to wait nine months, through.
You got pregnant last night.”
