    One Sunday, in counting the money in the weekly
    offering, the Pastor of a small church found a pink envelope containing $1,000. It happened again the
    next week!

    The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was collected & saw an elderly woman put the distinctive pink envelope on the plate. This went on for weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her.



    "Ma'am, I couldn't help but notice that you put
    $1,000 a week in the collection plate," he stated.

    "Why yes," she replied, "every week my son sends me money and I give some of it to the church."

    The pastor replied, "That's wonderful. But $1000 is a lot, are you sure you can afford this?
    How much does he send you?"
    The elderly woman answered"$10,000 a week."

    The pastor was amazed. "Your son is very
    successful; what does he do for a living?"
    "He is a veterinarian," she answered.

    "That's an honorable profession, but I had no idea the vet. made that much money," the pastor said.
    "Where does he practice?"

    The woman answered proudly, "In Nevada ... He has two cat houses, one in Las Vegas , and one in Reno '


    Enjoy life...it has an expiration date!

    You must have not tried herding cats, it's not easy.
    That's why they earn so much.
