It Was a Good Morning Until

It was a good morning until… I lost a hundred-dollar bill. I cried “Oh no! Why is this so?” It was a good morning until… the mail brought a bill for a mil. My tears did flow. I cried with woe. It was a good morning until… I wrote a bad check for the bill. To jail I go. It’s sad, I know.

LOL BJ I'd never write a bad check. In fact, are there many people who do write checks? Everything is so digital/paperless now. :)) Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Linda

Just for a mil? Surely anyone would have given you one. Doubt if you would be sent to prison for such a paltry offence. Cheer up and enjoy your win in this contest. ~~
