She spent the first day packing her belongings into boxes, crates and
suitcases.
On the second day, she had the movers come and collect her things.
On the third day, she sat down for the last time at their beautiful dining
room table by candlelight, put on some soft background music, and feasted
on a pound of shrimp and a bottle of Chardonnay. When she had finished,
she went into each and every room and deposited a few half-eaten shrimp
shells into the hollow of the curtain rods. She then cleaned up the kitchen
and left.
When the husband returned with his new girlfriend, all was bliss for the
first few days. Then slowly, the house began to smell. They tried
everything, cleaning, mopping, and airing the place out. Vents were
checked for dead rodents, and carpets were steam cleaned. Air fresheners
were in to set off gas canisters,during which they had to move out for a
few days, and in the end they even had to replace the expensive wool
carpeting.Nothing worked. People stopped coming over to visit. Repairmen
refused to work in the house. The maid quit. Finally, they could not take
the stench any longer and decided to move. A month later, even though they
had cut their price in half, they could not find a buyer for their stinky
house. Word got out, and eventually, even the local realtors refused to
return their calls. Finally, they had to borrow a huge sum of money from
the bankto purchase a new place.
The ex-wife called the man, and asked how things were going. He told her
the saga. She listened politely, and said that she missed her old home
terribly, and would be willing to reduce her divorce settlement in exchange
for getting the house back. Knowing his ex-wife had no idea how bad the
smell was, he agreed on a price that was about 1/10th of what the house had
been worth, but only if she were to sign the papers that very day. She
agreed, and within the hour his lawyers delivered the paperwork.
A week later the man and his girlfriend stood smiling at each other as they
watched the moving company pack everything in the house to take to their
new home, including the curtain rods.
I LOVE A HAPPY ENDING, DON'T YOU????
