Was the week 'fore Reunion while cleaning the place,
The fan blades (yes, Mandy), the carpets and drapes,
Washing windows and curtains, sheets and bedspreads
Planning menus and shopping lists from dishrags to breads.
I moved bookcases, dusted and watered the lawn,
Like a wild woman, I was just getting things done!
Guess the B12 was kicking in big time because..
Like a whirlwind I moved through the house without pause.
Was down to the final days of preparation and then...
I noticed an envelope...long, white and thin
In the mail with my paper, some bills and a pencil.
I read my name on the front...big, bold and official.
It came unexpectedly, not at all a good time!
I opened it up and read line by line....
For Grand Jury Duty you're ordered "Appear!"
The day 'fore your reunion, You need to be here!
(You just gotta love God's timing! Hope you enjoyed this attempt at humor of my situation! I truly consider it my duty to serve, so we'll see.....)
To follow up on this situation....I did get picked for the grand jury and not just that, for foreman as well! Laugh out loud!
ReplyDeleteEverything got done for the reunion and it was fantastic!
Will post more soon!....Sharon
