Day 275 CJSM-book IV


Day 275

 

 

Dad’s cannonballs into the pool to make big waves

 

 

Ka-boom! Screams and complaints immediately follow---by “adults”…kids yell for more!

Why would anyone ever want to “grow-up”? Kids have more fun! Adults ruin fun!

I built the family several in-ground pools over the years; had to. Kept selling the houses.

Yeah! I know---full well…Gyspsy-blood!? I reckon that’s true enough. Hmm!

And, once the pool is in and the water filled to the brim---What? Hmm!...Cannonball!

Life is just plain ole “Too much fun”! I can’t help it---Well! Okay!...I won’t help it!

Now, I’m not going to say that everyone loves my shenanigans, but, the kids sure enough do!

Reckon I might have taken a “hint” of what people really think of me when I got a “little-bit” sick some ten years ago; you sure do learn who your friends are at a time like that.

A lot of people prayed real hard when they heard the news---but…I lived anyway! Hmm!

Never did give much consideration to: What others think of me---none of my business! Amen!

So? Cover your plate of bar-b-que---Carlos is on the diving board…(you know the rest!)

Want to go horseback riding or skiing or shooting with me?--Thought not…No guts!

 

Yippee!” Grab an umbrella!---“Cannonball!”…Incoming!

 

Ah! Cookie Jar Sweet “Cannonball!” Memories!
