Default Helpful Rosie

Hello group,
The last few months, Jim has been on a diet to lose weight and has dropped
quite a few pounds. I guess Rosie thinks he's slim enough, or just wanted
to play games with his head. The other day when Jim stepped onto the
scales, Rosie also stepped up and sat on his foot.

She was being helpful! Figured perhaps he'd lost a couple of extra pounds
without her! (laughing)

It's hard to tell what she was thinking. For some reason, Rosie just loves
to be weighed. She'll get right on the scale and sit there purring and
looking so pleased with herself.

I wish I knew your secret. I've tried many times to weigh TuTu
without success. She is too big for me to hold when she struggles and
she won't step on the scale herself. MLB

Rosie reminds me of this joke:

On their first date, Joe took Rose to the carnival. When he asked her
what she wanted to do first, Rose replied, "Get weighed."

So Joe took her to the man with the scale who guesses your weight. He
looked at Rose and said, "One hundred and twenty pounds." Since Rose
weighed in at one seventeen, she collected a prize.

Next they went on the roller coaster. When the ride was finished, Joe
asked Rose what she wanted to do next. "Get weighed," she said. So
they went back to the man with the scale, who of course guessed Rose's
weight correctly. Leaving without a prize, they went for a ride on
the merry-go-round. After they got off, Joe asked Rose what she
wanted to do next. "I want to get weighed!" she said again.

Now Joe began to think this girl was quite strange, and decided to end
the evening quickly. He left her at the door with a quick handshake.

Rose's roommate was waiting up for her return and asked how the
evening went.

"Wousy!" Rose replied.

Maybe she wanted to help him find all those lost pounds.

I did that to Patty at the doctor's office a while back. I was behind
her where she couldn't see me. She didn't really catch on until the
nurse muttered her weight out loud. That brought a scream from Patty and
a puzzled look from the nurse. That was when they both looked back and
saw my foot on the scale. :-)

Would she step on the scale if you got on it with her? Then you could
weigh yourself without her and just do the subtraction to come up with
her weight.
