Well everyone, my wife is not a violent person at all
She is really sweet to me and everyone else in our realm stall
She's really afraid of guns and wouldn't pick one up if it meant saving her life
In fact my wife is really a big whimp who really wouldn't pick up a kitchen knife
She's really afraid of things like large bridges and thunder and lightning
And don't let a squirrel or mouse cross her path because she will certainly be frighten
When we first met I was looking all over the house for her during this thunder storm
When I couldn't find her I just knew this wasn't in the norm
So I opened the closet door to get my rain coat to look outside for her, as I was reaching up for it, something grabbed my leg from below, scared me almost to death, I then looked down and saw these two eyes and pearly teeth down in the bottom of the closet looking up at me
Man, was I scared almost out of my happy spree
I asked her, "what are you doing sitting in the closet?"
She screamed, "none of dam business, close it!"
This is when I first found out that she was affraid of thunder and lightning
At least I thought she was that frighten
One day we got caught in a thunder storm which really had her all upset
So heading for home was my best bet
When we were getting out of the car she dropped a penny on the street which rolled down and was headed for the drain
The thunder went boom boom boom, a lightning bolt flashed a cross the sky, but my wife chased that penny until she caught it in the heavy rain
I screamed, "hey I thought you were afraid of the thunder and lightning dear."
She grabbed that penny up and said, "you must be crazy, when it come to money I have no fear!
My wife will chase a penny down an alligator throat quick
Lol ... haa haaaa ... Delightful funny write1 This remind me - we have a tribe in Tanzania, called Chagga - they are actually teased to be the Jews of Tanzania - there is a joke that there was once a sedated Chagga, and one the operating table. The surgeon accidentally dropped a pair of operating scissors. Upon hearing the clang of the scissors, the suddenly Chagga jumped up from his heavy sedation screaming, "hey, that's money that just fell!"
By the way, psssst, I'm a Chagaa too - but darn careless and hopeless with money. Lol.
Happy or not, some people know the value of a penny :)! Cute write :)!
