My mom fowarded this to me and I thought it was cute. If any of you have not seen this, take a second and read it...it will put a smile on your face!


THE NEXT SURVIVOR SERIES

Six married men will be dropped on an island
with one car and 3 kids each for six weeks.Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes.There is no fast food.Each man must take care of his 3 kids;
keep his assigned house clean,
correct all homework,
and complete science projects, cook, do laundry,
and pay a list of 'pretend' bills with not enough money.In addition, each man will have to budget in
money for groceries each week.Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives,
and send cards out on time--no emailing.
Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment,
a dentist appointment and a haircut appointment.
He must make one unscheduled and inconvenient visit per child
to the Urgent Care.
He must also make cookies or cupcakes for a social function.
Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house,
planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times.

The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep
and all chores are done.

The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily,
adorn himself with jewelry, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes,
keep fingernails polished and eyebrows groomed.During one of the six weeks,
the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps,
back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings
but never once complain or slow down from other duties.
They must attend weekly school meetings, church,
and find time at least once
to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting.
They will need to read a book to the kids each night and in the morning, feed them, dress them,
brush their teeth and comb their hair by 7:00 am.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks,
and each father will be required to know all of the following information:
each child's birthday,
height,
weight,
shoe size,
clothes size
and doctor's name.
Also the child's weight at birth,
length, time of birth,
and length of labor,
each child's favorite color,
middle name,
favorite snack,
favorite song,
favorite drink,
favorite toy,
biggest fear
and what they want to be when they grow up.The kids vote them off the island based on performance.
The last man wins only if...
he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse
at a moment's notice.If the last man does win,
he can play the game over and over and over again
for the next 18-25 years
eventually earning the right To be called Mother!

LOL. I'd pay to see this on TV. hahahha. That was a good one. I wish guys could be in our shoes for one day and know why we feel the way we do sometimes. Not saying they don't have hard days, but they get to come home and seperate themselves from work, we don't.

(I hit enter before I was done. sorry). It's hard sometimes to change gears when we're in Mom mode 24 hrs day. It's hard to switch and go into "wife" mode especially if it's been a long day. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want to do anything else!

I would love to see a show like that! I mean, I wouldn't want to work outside the home, but sometimes I do envy men being able to leave their jobs behind at the end of the day. I love being a mom, but it is lots of hard work!
