Funny At First

It was funny at first. I bought groceries at McDon’s She switched grocery stores And began shopping there too. I made a famous Jell-o salad for neighborhood picnics. She asked for the recipe and began bringing it too. Okay. Dokey. No problem. I can survive this. She began showing up where ever I was. The pool, clothing stores, the park. It is as if she was tracking my phone. I have a stalker I told people; and I laughed. After a few months of this It stopped being a coincidence And it stopped being funny.

I do know her - three times over, three different women, following two friends and a sister.

It is pretty much going on. So many women "like to be lead". I am no one of them though.

Hmmm...seems like you might need a protection order. Why would anyone do this, Caren. They must feel terribly insecure. Uh, what is that recipe???? Must be a winner. Just kiddin'.

Here is the secret recipe. Grate carrots. Throw the peelings into green Jell-O before it hardens. Bingo!
