ktgrok Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I am sending sympathy cards to my family, as my Grandma died. I just opened the card to my Grandfather and I swear I thought it said, in gorgeous script, "Shaving your Legs....." I panicked and thought I bought the wrong card. No, it says "Sharing your Loss." Oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops. It's official. You are getting older. Just kidding. I do that now and then and have for years! I'm always startled at how I could have misread it.

Oops. I'm sorry for your loss. But you made me laugh. Thanks for that. (I can totally see how you could misread fancy script that way.)

nukeswife Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I'm sorry for your loss :grouphug: That did make me laugh though. I do things like that, as does my dh. On a road trip once I saw a sign for a hotel that clearly said "Play! Eat! Sleep!" but I read "Play! Eat Sheep!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsinkable Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I am sending sympathy cards to my family, as my Grandma died. I just opened the card to my Grandfather and I swear I thought it said, in gorgeous script, "Shaving your Legs....." I panicked and thought I bought the wrong card. No, it says "Sharing your Loss." Oops. At my dad's funeral my brother and I were kneeling at his casket and I looked at the flower arrangement that was from DB and I. There was a ribbon with script on it that I was certain read "Dead Dad." I pointed it out to DB and we got the giggles so badly. It was mortifying. We have a family tendency for inappropriate laughter. The ribbon read "Dear Dad" BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
