A New Friend

Today, my Larry's Weed Eater cord ran out.

But do not ask ME anything about it.

***

Twenty years ago, I did the lawn work.

Mowing and edging.

But, the funniest thing happened.

Every other month or so, our current Weed Eater would die.

It would just blow out.

It was then, Larry said that he would do all of the lawn work.

He said that I killed all of the Weed Eaters.

It is true, the Weed Eater thing,

 stopped happening when he took over,

but he has yet to prove his accusations.

This morning, he came inside...grumbling.

His Weed Eater cord ran out.

I kissed him good bye as he left for the hardware store.

When he came home,

he had this lovely African Violet (photo above) in his hands.

He said, I brought you a new friend.

I smiled.

No, he does not have to prove the Weed Eater

episode now.....

A new friend.

What an absolutely perfect day.

Love you.

Me
