Mother Superior was on her way to late morning prayers when she
passed two novices just leaving early morning prayers on their way to
classes. As she passed the young ladies, Mother Superior said, "Good morning ladies." The novices replied, "Good morning, Mother Superior, may God be with you."
But after they had passed, Mother Superior heard one say to the
other, "I think she got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning."
This startled Mother Superior, but she chose not to pursue the issue. A little further down the hall, Mother Superior passed two of the
sisters who had been teaching at the convent for several years.
She greeted them with, "Good morning Sister Martha, Sister Jessica,
may God give you the wisdom for our students today." "Good morning, Mother Superior. Thank you and may God be with you."
But again after passing, Mother Superior overheard, "She got up on the
wrong side of the bed today." Baffled, she started to wonder if she had spoken harshly or with an
irritated look on her face. She vowed to be more pleasant. Looking down the hall, Mother Superior saw retired Sister Mary approaching, step by step, with
her walker. As Sister Mary was rather deaf, Mother Superior had plenty of time to arrange a pleasant smile on her face before greeting Sister Mary. "Good morning, Sister Mary, I'm so happy to see you up and about.
I pray God watches over you today, and grants you a wonderful day." "Ah, good morning, Mother Superior. I see you got up on the wrong side
of the bed this morning." Mother Superior was floored! "Sister Mary, what have I done wrong?
I have tried to be pleasant but three times already today people have
said that about me.." Sister Mary stopped her walker and looked Mother Superior in the face.
"Oh, don't take it personally, Mother Superior. It's just that you're
wearing Father Murphy's slippers."

LOL! I think that's an old Dave Allen joke!
Two nuns, who were also nurses, had been out visiting the sick in their parish when the got lost and ran out of gas. **
They flagged down a passing truck, and asked for help. The driver of the truck had a gas siphon, but it wasn't long enough to reach the car's gas tank.
"If we only had some sort of container to put the gas in, then we could siphon it into the tank," the truck driver suggested.
"I think I've got just the thing!" one of the sisters exclaimed. She opened the trunk of the car, and pulled out a bedpan.
They filled the bedpan with gasoline, then began to transfer it to the tank of the car.
At that point, a police cruiser pulled up. The officer got out, and stood watching for a few seconds, scratching his head.
Finally, he said, "Sisters, I REALLY admire your faith, but I don't think this is going to work!"
** I used to work as a nurse for this company, which started out when the local archbishop gave a commission to three nuns to go out and help the poor and the sick. However, for reasons of privacy, it shall remain anonymous...
Though initially Catholic, it now hires nurses from every religion and ethnic group.

LOL Sunsilver!
Would you like some more snow? We got around a foot already and it's supposed to snow for another 8 or 9 hours...

The joke from the funeral sketch about the dying man and his 4 sons is one of my favourites.
