Sometimes I wonder, am I going to turn into a person like this grandmother in a joke I got from a friend. I have two great children who grew up despite all the pitfalls that we went through coming from a single parent family. I have a granddaughter now also. We have all made mistakes and hopefully we have learned from them and maybe my children learned those lessons. But this joke really hits home for me but maybe someone will get a smile out of it and have a great day.

GRANDMA's BIRTH CONTROL PILLS

A doctor who had been seeing an 80-year-old woman patient for most of her life finally retired. At her next checkup, the new doctor told the woman to bring a list of all the medicines that had been prescribed for her.

As the young doctor was looking through these, his eyes grew wide as he realized she had a prescription for birth control pills. "Mrs. Smith, do you realize these are BIRTH CONTROL pills?

"Yes, they help me sleep at night."
"Mrs. Smith, I assure you there is absolutely NOTHING in these that could possibly help you sleep!"
She reached out and patted the young Doctor's knee.

"Yes, dear, I know that. But every morning, I grind one up and mix it in the glass of orange juice that my 16 year old granddaughter drinks...... And believe me, it helps me sleep at night."
