we get along quite well together its a big undertheduitblack ss desoto thats beginning to show ifs year since the seat covers ale worn right through anyone who sits on ttieirl ends up with a foamrubber speckled bottom with a few wisps of hay add two or three pieces ol popcorn for trimming beforegord got his truck heacarlcd around all sorts of thing in the car although weve never gone tar

that the the steering is a mile off in visiting season isnt lur behind the car but then my driving is a- atl hc accordingly little off too so between ui y year rc thai the things sort of jitraighjen out ive ncvor got the hang of this bit about steering in the direction of the rear of the car in a skid though by the time i figure out following year ill bake my christmas cakes in september but ive never managed il ycl im usually rushing uboul around the end ol november where the roar is going the front the cukes will be ripened i a ii i 1 1 in p lias arrived all i do now is close my eyes and hope i dont land too hard last winter i became quite adept at getting around on my own with no help to begin with once i paid for membership in an auto club that provides towing and such the car stopped going into ditches then gord rigged up a portable battery for me a fully charged battery in a wooden box with handles with booster cables and starter button attached that i kept in the trunk of my car lvcry time my own battery was low id whip that out fasten it on with never a mistake in cables red ahead black m back and away wed go usually just when im beginning to feel fairly knowledgeable about things gord comes and looks over my shoulder and reduces me to a state of blithering idiocy things that ive been doing automatically for ages become complicated operations that i bungle have you ever in the middle of going down a flight of stairs quickly thought of just what your feet are doing thats almost guaranteed to break your neck tor example last week my car wouldnt go and gord contented to push it with the truck telling me to put the car in low when he honked we got halfway to the corner he beeped his horn i pul the car in low and nothing happened at the corner he came up to me what happened i answered nothing did you put it in low yes are you sure yes then he peered in it was in low hut he looked at me very oddly and said have you ever thought of turning the key on then walked away mumbling by christmas my usual recipe is a little expensive and takes a while to mix up its quite good though my grandmother sent me a recipe for a quick lype ol cake that would be good lor people who dont have too much lime for baking and who would like to cut down on expenses i made it last week and it took only 0 minutes to mix up you may reduce that by s minutes it you dont burn yourself if you can remember where you put things and if your beaters dont keep falling off the texture was different but the flavor was good and should get better darkl rlutt akl etlicr
