Feet up the stairs

Hubby was working on a weekend project with his tool box open. H1 picked up the measuring tape and pulled it up to her head and asked, "How tall am I Thaaththi?"
Squinting at the tape, Hubs replied, "Three feet."
"No, no, no," said H1, "Ammi said I was one hundred and more!"
"Yes, darling, that's about three feet."
"Stop measuring my feet silly, you have to measure up to my upstairs*" said H1.

Note* - anything above ground level is 'upstairs' to H1. In this case she was talking about her head :o)

  4. Nothing related to this post, but related to some discussion we had sometime back :)

    So Im back in the country, I go as KJ. Btw, Mudmark is also there. (And she would possibly think that I'd get arrested for posting this on the suspicion of being a stalker!)
