Two Lumps or Three?
Parasol in hand
Lemon tea from a jar
More sugar please
As I pass the bizarre
A tale of uncanny
A most bitter end
I swallowed a seed
And it choked off my wind!
My face shaded blue
In the heat of the day
I stumbled and fell
My drink flowing away
My parasol broke
A wind whisked it far
Lost one of my shoes
Got hit by a car…
(At least it knocked the seed loose)
Oh what a day
If I’d known you could bet
I’d have stayed safe at home
On the couch and just slept.
Yep!

Rgular day is right…it’s the ones in which things like that don’t happen that tend to make me worry…
Cheers!

Many thanks for the more than kind compliment…It is appreciated!

I’ve had those day…
I go home, get in my PH’s and drink cocoa & watch a Hallmark movie… (Hopefully one of the ones that doesn’t include crying) 
They seem to get more frequent this time of the year…sounds like a very nice way to cope..many thanks!

Sometimes, we wish we had never ventured out the door in the morning.
At least you were spared from choking.
I think there are some days for us all when nothing goes right…many thanks!
Rachael
What fun in retrospect … but perhaps not while it was happening! Thanks for smile. (Saying that, I hope you are alright …)
Always glad to share a smile…and not to worry…all is well
Rachael
