“Can you to watch the girls this evening,” she asked. “I really have to finish this work by tomorrow. The deadline has been moved to Friday.”
“Sure, I have some reading I’d like to catch up on,” he replied.
Smiling, “Thanks Honey!”

I’m thinking about this one for my next mail out…
in the meantime…. spend some time with the ones you love.
There’s quite a flaw in a plant that eats people!!
“They may offer you fortune and fame
Love and money and instant acclaim
But whatever they offer you…Don’t feed the plants!”
My set design for Theatre on the Bay. Yep… I have a theatre background…. something you may not know about me…..

Being very curious, the boy climbed the plant and once he reached the top of the stalk he found himself over the clouds.
You better watch out… You don’t and you’ll cry
You better not doubt… I’m telling you why…
Santa Flaws is coming to town!
He smells like a fungus. He’s covered with lice.
He spits when he talks… and he’s not very nice.
Santa Flaws is coming to town!
He sneaks in while you’re sleeping
And eats up all the cake
He drinks the beer and kicks the dog
So beware for goodness sake!
You better watch out… You don’t and you’ll cry,
You better not doubt… I’m telling you why… Santa Flaws is coming to town!

The side of the family that no one wants to talks about!
What’s in a name sighed Magnificent Max…
As he gathered his props and started to pack.
The bunnies revolted, the birds flew away
Not a whole lot of magic had happened that day.
But descending the ladder as he caught the last bird
“He must be a wizard!” magic Max overheard.
His dreams of illusion had not slipped away
To the kids he was magic, that magnificent day!

Your opinion of others can either boost or bust.
I choose boost!
The smell of the burner and the tinkling of glass
Just another day in my chemistry class
But our regular teacher was not in her chair
A web footed green thing was now sitting there
I’m the substitute teacher he said with a grin
Now pick up your test tubes, it’s time to begin
Take the yellow elixir and mix with the blue
And now you’ve created amphibian goo!
He called us all tadpoles and taught us to croak
He ate flies at lunch time and told froggy jokes
And when class was over, at the end of the day
He packed up his brief case and leap frogged away!
