Whatever You Say Dear

WHATEVER YOU SAY DEAR She said, you don’t even listen to me. He said, well how much did it cost ? If you’ve lost it, am I supposed to look for it? He replied but it’s not my book, sweetheart. Yes, you always make a neat start, but never finish. No, I think it was actually a Danish author. If there is any left in the fridge, OK, I’d like some - Oh, and a cup of coffee if you don’t mind. I don’t mind, but with your weight - a couple of toffees? No, I don’t want to wait. I’d like it now please. OK, I’ll get the candies, but no more pleas tonight, right? If you wish to write, don’t use candles, silly ! Candies won’t help if you’re chilly, but whatever you say, dear.

The misperceived messages give this a ring of truth, Syd, and certainly give readers some laughs. Enjoyed! Hadn't seen you here for a while, but am glad to see you're still posting. Love, Carolyn
