One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for September 09, 2022

Go ask grandma.

With a title like that, it should write itself.

Something tells me that could be the story of Miss Avis in her younger years.

That is a catchy title. If she’s writing that story for school, it’s definitely going to catch the teacher’s attention.

Yes. Yes it is.

Makes me want to read it!

She may have to write that one when she’s older, so it can be autobiographical.

calling Drunk Patty!

I see a parent-teacher conference in Ruthie’s future.

Grandpa is thinking…Ah I remember her well

For many years now I have threatened to write a story about a height-challenged, intellect-challenged young woman from the ’50s. It was going to be called “Gidget the Idjet Midget”.

Ruthie has been watching too much daytime TV.

I think Grandpa knows that story.
