Does anyone need any zinnia seeds?
This past weekend, I planted zinnia seeds in our flower bed on the side of the house, as I do every year. But I needed two more packets of seeds to finish the job, so I asked M to stop at the store on his way home yesterday and pick up two more packets.
Imagine my surprise when I got home and there were 12 (yes, TWELVE) packets of zinnia seeds waiting for me. He said he thought that was how many I usually used. Well, yes – for the entire flower bed.
During dinner, we were talking about a friend from work and a trip she had taken last week. She was telling me about some of the passengers she had encountered on the cruise and I was trying to relay that information to M. He did such a spot-on imitation of one of the passengers my co-worker had told me about . . . I laughed so hard, I couldn’t catch my breath! He was HILARIOUS!!
It was almost as though the old M was back, for just a moment.
