Come in, come in...

Storytime Sunday.

Went to visit a client of mine at a nursing home to help her with some stuff. Client was finishing lunch so I just took a seat near the door.

In the middle of the entrance foyer is a guestbook in front of a little circular garden. Around and around this little circular garden is a senior woman walking with a walker. Around and around.

On her third lap around, she stops suddenly and slowly looks up at me with a bizarre toothless grin and says...

"Come in, come in to my parlour said the spider to the fly".

I've never been so simultaneously overjoyed and scared out of my mind in my whole life.

Half of me wanted to run screaming and half wanted to high five her.

All I could do was smile back and say 'Thanks!'.

Till next time.
