My neighbor, Irene, reported me to the HOA over my Halloween decorations—plastic skeletons and cobwebs. Less than a day later, she was at my door begging for help. Why the change of heart? You’ll see!
I’m Wendy, a retired schoolteacher and grandma, and apparently, public enemy number one in our neighborhood.
“Wendy! What are you doing?” Irene yelled, hands on hips, when she spotted me decorating.
“It’s Halloween, Irene! Same as I’ve done for 30 years.”
“But it’s so… GARISH!” she exclaimed.
I chuckled. “It’s supposed to be a little garish.”
A week later, I received an HOA letter about my decorations. Guess who complained? I called the HOA, and they said I had to remove my decor in 48 hours or face a fine. Not happening!

These are hilarious! It’s true; a good laugh can turn any day around, and these jokes are a perfect pick-me-up. I especially love the Christmas surprise one with the elderly couple—it’s such a classic “get the family together” move! The janitor-artist joke is also a gem; the twist about him already having a master’s degree adds a smart, witty touch. And I have to admit, the fish story at the end really got me. The man’s quick thinking with “What fish?” is brilliant.
