Thank you Felix for your wonderful poem and it certainly did bring a smile to my face and although it may have seemed like a cruel joke at the time, I got to smile in the end as everyone enjoyed the food, drinks and company. We must always remember that God does have a sence of humor, as long as we can pick ourselves up and trudge on through.


 

But I Got To Smile In The End

What else could possibly go wrong,
As my room filled gray with smoke,
Company will  soon be arriving,
I see it now as they choke,
Just clear the air, all will mend,
Ah, but I got got to smile in the end.
The pie crust are burning,
Now what should I do,
Pull myself together,
And then start over new,
That's it when you help a friend,
Ah, but I got to smile in the end. 
The pie has turned upside down,
But it didn't hit the floor,
This is  just a bad day,
I just can't take any more,
 Take a deep breath, now count to ten,
Ah, but I got to smile in the end.
The foods on the go, Company arrive,
It's ok, I'm still alert and alive,
The bar-be-que is ready now it is hot,
 Meats on the grill, the corn in the pot,
 The tank just died, why do I pretend,
It's ok, cause I got to smile in the end
Foods pretty good, the drinks are all fine.
The people are having a wonderful time,
God has a great sence of humour,
Word gets out, oh what a rumour,
I'll laugh, have a great time,counting to ten,
Cause I got to smile in the end

I had to laugh at your ability to smile. Haven't we all had one of those days? It certainly helps to laugh.

As I knew you would dear Cuz, for the things that we remember most in life always seem to be the little stories in our lifes of when things weren't perfect not when they were. Childhood stories of how when I was little I got my head caught between the rungs of a kitchen chair, or Aunt Mill stealing the ladle from the punch bowl at a wedding, or one of the brothers setting fire to their mustache while lighting the barbeque...and the Hawaian Night that almost wasn't are the kind of memories that will be told for a long long time.
