“One Day… with Young TOM” | Grandma’s Stories

Nov 6th “One Day… with Young TOM”

“YES… I’m still waiting for my ride – – Sometimes I just have to wait – – as my RIDE – – will not WAIT… for me!”

“Sure is good that I have a big sister, Mary Ellen… and she does like to cook – – – she likes to make “PAN-CAKES” – – she was making “PAN-CAKES” years ago for – – Virgil and Ronald Struck…. they were younger than us and lived across the street.Before breakfast…. I do have to make myself ready for the NEW DAY – –

This is Me, myself – – just have to get each and every hair – – in the right place – – and “YES” – – that is a CIGAR – and why would I smoke a CIGAR??? – – even I do not know why I would have thought – – that – – that would have been the THING… to do way back and then!

“OH… How can you stand there… and call me… so many times… I heard you the first times!”

“I will call you in about five minutes – – when… I will be ready to eat?” “This getting up so early is wearing me out – – sure will be glad when the day comes – – and I will not have to get up … so early!”

Evidently… someone did not hear the “ALARM – CLOCK” – – so it looks – – like I should take some PHOTOS of little “TOMMY” – – so I can show him – – when the occasion occurs… – – just how difficult it is to get him up and out of the bed – – and follow him around – – just to be sure “TOMMY” is able to get himself – – all ready for his ride to work.

“What does some-one do… when their little brother, TOMMY – – can not hear the alarm clock ring and ring… AND “RING” for the over – – the one-hundredth TIME?”

Everyone does have an “internal clock” – – but when is it that it finally kicks in and wakes us… in TIME to get ready… for WORK?
