OK, so I've told you different stories about how my Mom does things that no one really knows for sure if it's her Polish nationality or just her "beautiful mind", right? Well, have I got a story for you!


I'll make this as brief as I possibly can.

We're watching Who Wants to be a Millionairre and one of the questions is "On what credit card is the name Jack Frost on?" Choices were American Express, Visa, Mastercard, and Discover, I think. Anyway.....

This morning at breakfast my Mom was going through HER credit cards and I asked, "What are you doing?"

So she says, "I'm just looking through my credit cards to see which card DOES have the name, Jack Frost, on it, and I don't see that name on any of them."



So I laughed very hard, out loud, ROFL, LMAO, and all the rest of those things and gently said to her, "Mom that name is only on the card they send as a sample of what the card would look like if you were to apply for it and be approved for it!"

Chery....my mom is not Polish (but my father's side is) and that is STILL something she would do! Moms can be goofy like that...probably why we love them so much!

That is too funny - she sounds wonderful!

My MIL is Dutch and has a pretty heavy accent. I love her to bits. Anyway, we have a town near Toronto called Ajax. She was telling us how early they had left to travel to Ottawa to see their daughter and that at 6:30 in the am they were already at "Javex". We haven't stopped laughing about that one.
