There is this grandma who had put on a lot of weight. Her grandchildren kept asking her why she could not do something about her body.

An elderly couple could no longer remember things as they used to. They arranged for a doctor’s appointment and after a thorough check-up, they were declared physically fit. They were however asked to write things down so that they did not keep forgetting in future.
They then went home and while they were watching their TV, the husband got up and asked the wife if he wanted anything from the kitchen. The wife asked for a bowl of ice cream. The husband said he would bring her the bowl of ice cream but the wife quipped, “Shouldn’t you write that down so you do not forget?” The husband said he would remember. The wife then went on and asked him to get for her the ice cream with a topping of strawberries. She again asked him to write her order down.
The husband still refused, saying he would remember everything. To emphasise, he repeated to his wife that she needed a bowl of ice cream with strawberries. The wife said she was not done and continued to ask him to add whipped cream, again reminding him to write the order down. The husband, now irritated shouted back that he did not need to write anything down. He repeated what his wife wanted. Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream. The husband then went into the kitchen and came back after a while with a plate of eggs and bacon. The wife looked at the plate for a while and shouted to the husband. “You forgot my toast”

For her 70th birthday, Eunice decided to give herself a special treat. She chose a luxurious hotel for an overnight stay. In the morning when she was checking out, she was handed a bill of $255.00. She asked why her bill was inflated for just a night yet she did not even take any breakfast. The hotel manager told her that, what she had on the bill was the hotels standard rate, which was inclusive of breakfast.
The manager further went to tell Eunice that the hotel had very many other facilities like a swimming pool, in-hotel shows, a large conference room, great entertainers and many more that were all inclusive in the standard charges. Eunice said that she did not use any of the offers so her bill should be less than what she was getting. The manager then told her that all those were at her disposal but she refused to use them.
Eunice shrugged and wrote the manager a cheque. When the manager looked at the cheque, it was for $55. She asked Eunice why she was paying $55.00 instead of $255.00. Eunice looked at the manager and told him; “My charges for sleeping with me last night are $200.00” the manager looked at her and said he had not slept with her. Walking away, Eunice said,” well, I was available and you could have slept with me but you did not”
