What Not To Say at the Nursing Home

This is what happen to me yesterday when my wife and I went to visit my mother-in-law in the nursing facilities. We had a nice visit, we talked and my mother-in-law Midge and I watched the Florida/Michigan bowl game. After the visit we got up and were walking out. I spotted one of the people who we talked too when we were looking for information about this facilities. Because of the holiday I was a little mixed up and I said to this women "Boy working on the weekend you are really putting your nose to the grindstone". So my wife and this women say to me " it's only Tuesday". And I said to them "well get my room ready". Well the silents was deafening. Talk about a awkward moment. This women and the nurse who was near by just put their heads down. As I was slinking away my wife looked at me and said "What's wrong with you". I was just trying to be funny that's all. Ha Ha?
