Porch Present

I was ecstatic when six o’clock finally rolled around and I was able to leave work. It was one of those LONG LONG dreary days in which the seconds on the clock seem like days. I don’t have anything to do at work right now which makes the days go by EVEN SLOWER. Then to have to drive home in the hour of traffic with all the horrible Los Angeles traffic just was icing on the cake. All that however changed when I pulled up in front of my house. There was a large package on my doorstep, a very large package, yea the first of our wedding presents has arrived. My mother’s old work friends had all chipped in and sent us 8 serving sets of the china I wanted. Booo Yea! Eight down four more to go; what a great way to end such a terrible day.
