'Twas a rainy day today;
drizzle and wind and clouds,
so I slept in until ten or so
and then packed up hubby
in my shiny blue car ------
We went on a rainy-day-adventure.
Like a sporty car rounding
road curves at cruising speed,
I rounded twists and turns
through Lee, Madbury, and Dover
as my wheels whizzed
and my wipers squeaked.
First to eat, of course,
at the 'king of burgers'
from the dollar menu
and then to Wally-World.
Got yet another round of
baby shower gifts for the
Snell family, something
for Cheryl's birthday,
and masks for Ray and me.
Then to the...oh, I can't say...
...for it is an additional part
of a birthday gift for my
ultra-special sister. Shhhh!
Finally, a stop at the
food store for bread,
prunes, fruit, and other
nourishments, etc.
On my answering machine
was a call from my fav-niece.
Actually, two calls. Both pleaded,
"Can I come over? Call me back!"
So she came and we made chocolate
treats, played monkey-in-the-middle,
and ate supper. When it was time to
go home, we played a round of chess.
Daddy picked her up, much to her glee.
Now I sit at the computer screen,
yes, it's 11:15 p.m. Yes I take the time,
when I find the time, to write to you!
So that was my day...a nice, rainy one.
Hope yours was good, too.
