LOST HEARING GLASSES

Hubby was pottering in our garden when off the cuff,
He said I’ve looked everywhere but can't find fluff
Our cat and, must plant these pansies,
But I’ve lost my reading glasses,
Where to plant them, for now can’t hear you love.

Hi Charles, Great to hear from you. Glad you enjoyed my Limerick - Fluff is doing great, but the glasses are too big for her! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Alexis, i was over joyed my dear friend to see your comment - it has been some time since we communicated and am so happy to be in contact with you again. Yes but Fluff found the glasses and can you believe it would not give them back, we had to bribe her with all sorts of treats. i will be going to your page over the week-end, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Not seeing or hearing without glasses - The situations melodramatic - But strangely enough - The specs are on fluff - Looking extremely aristocatic……. Beryl

Jennifer, we surely have a perplexing situation. Most of our senses must be activated if we are to discover an answer. I am nearly able to sense the smile on your face as you type this. Best wishes and happiness to you, my friend.

Interesting that your husband can't hear without his glasses. Did he have his hearing aids attached? LOL..He didn't bury the cat, did he? Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

Here we definitely have an enigmatic dilemma, Jenny! To find a solution we have to use all our senses including a sixth one :) I can imagine you writing this with a grin on your face. ~ Warm regards, hugs and blessings my friend // paul

Jennifer, sounds like hubby has a few problems. The title might mean he's lost in more ways than one. If this is the case, I hope it's only temporary. Otherwise, you get our sincerest condolences for needing the patience of a saint.
