LOL!! That was so funny. I agree, what is the point of a garbage disposal unit if you can't even put egg shells in it. I loved the last line, did you let your wife read this? Lol. Ask her to let us know when you are released from hospital! LOL Loved this! Well done, Jim. :)) Sandra xx

Thank you so much, Sandra. My wife is a good sport and actually cracked up at the last line--which made it much easier to put her in the garbage disposal! :)

Quite difference than your golfing story. Cute and humorous but lacking on meter, not that i am an expert, for my last released was loved as well, as your piece, do tell, and was recommended to edit it as it was an entry in a rhyming contest. I did.

Maybe I saw it after you edited it, because I thought the rhyme was fine.

You're right about the difference between the story and the poetry. That story didn't rhyme at all!

Ha ha, that's good. We're more fortunate here, I think. What the animals and chickens don't eat can either go into our compost maker to feed the garden, or is taken away by council for THEIR
compost maker, for compost to be sold back to We The People. Coffee grounds are particularly prized.

Thanks, Julie. Yes, I've heard coffee grounds make quite a good soil amendment. I don't really have them anymore since I switched to a Keurig. I suppose I could rip the little K-cups open and spill out the grounds, but it doesn't seem worth the effort.

As I've told my "better half" many times, "Babe, having a list is great, but I'll need a note to remind me to check the list."

We're in a no win situation. Good Sunday morning read, Jim. Gave me a chuckle.

Hey, man. I hear you on that. We give each other post-it notes in our Christmas stockings!

Thanks for the good review, John.
