Giving up Wine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly
dirty and shabby- looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of
pounds for dinner. I took out my wallet, got out ten pounds and asked,
"If I give you this money, will you buy some wine with it instead of
dinner?"
"No, I had to stop drinking years ago", the homeless woman told me.

"Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" I asked.
"No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless woman said. "I need to
spend all my time trying to stay alive."

"Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?" I asked.
"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "I haven't had my hair done
in 20 years!"
.
"Well," I said, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going
to take you out for dinner with my Husband and me tonight."
The homeless Woman was shocked. "Won't your husband be furious with you
for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty
disgusting."

I said, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a
woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and
wine."
