Things have been so sad, I thought I would share this. It brought a smile to my face after many days of a sad heart.
I'm thinking Marty will read this some day and give me the June Doofus Award as well.
:
I had to work today, so at lunch time, the time of Michaels Funeral, I went over to the local park. I knew it would be quiet at that time of day and could sit at my favorite bench and table and light a candle for Michael.
It was a small candle and I made a base out of aluminium foil so I could sit it on top of the table.
I lit the candle, said a few words for Michael and his family, told them all I was thinking of them. Told Marty how very much I appreciated her as a horsewomen.
Pulled my Diet Pepsi, and sandwich out of a bag and placed them on the table. Leaned over to get my chips, and BAM!!!!!!
4 Squirrels have already taken all off the table and are running into the park. My diet pepsi got dropped, actually only knocked off the table and is spraying everywhere!!!! Jump up to go after Michaels Candle, my pant legs get caught on a screw in the leg of the table, I jerk, and now have a 8 inche rip up my pants. But I'm off after the squirrel with Michaels Candle,,,,,,,,
A gentleman also there on his lunch hour asks if he can assist,,,,,,,,,,and I yell, YES, he's got my candle. Who has your candle???? The squirrel.................the young man kind of giggles and says, maybe his power is out. Appologizes and says he just couldn't help himself.
I saw the squirrel go up in a tree. Walked over to the the tree to see if mayhe he had dropped it before he went up. Looked around for several minutes and I finally looked up. About 20 foot up, in a knot hole, was Michaels Candle.
I couldn't help but grin. Maybe it needed to be closer.
