A Nutty Kind of Day

I recently did a basket to be sold during a silent auction. The contents included goodies with nuts.I attached the following poem to the basket.

The tire goes flat at work in the parking lot.
It’s a nutty kind of day.

Your child’s teacher wants to have a conference-NOW!
It’s a nutty kind of day.

An unforeseen bill shows up in the mail.
Yes, it’s a nutty kind of day.

Did that red light camera just take your picture?
It’s still a nutty kind of day.

Enjoy this basket and have a nutty kind of day.
..........................
When was the last time you had a nutty kind of day?
or
What is your favorite nut? (I did not say, who)

  1. I had a nutty kind of day on Friday. My son convinced me to take in an abandoned puppy. One of the selling points was that it was a boy. After arriving with the pet carrier, I discovered that it was a girl. You'd think a sixteen-year-old would know the difference! Once it turned some sad, sad eyes on me, and I saw how emaciated it was, I couldn't refuse the puppy because of the gender.

  3. My favorite nut is a cashew and nutty days can be too frequent but fortunately I can't think of the last one. Blessings to you today.
