A good giggle is such a tonic.
Yesterday, I had two good giggles.
The first was during my stint at the charity shop.
A customer stood at the table outside looking at the items displayed
chuckling away quietly to himself.
He'd obviously found something very funny.
I was intrigued.
He was looking at a tin of purple paint.
An open half empty tin of sticky purple paint
with a paintbrush stuck in it.
We'd found it left on the shop doorstep last week.
A customer even complained about it being there.
We were somewhat annoyed about it.
What I didn't realise was
the manageress had put a label on it
which read,
" Donation of the week "
and that's what the customer found so funny.
I started to giggle & couldn't stop.
It was a nice moment
and I told him he'd made my day.
He went inside the shop
and I heard him telling his wife about it
still chuckling away.
Later Jess & I were in the lounge deciding what film to watch.
We could hear Joe & husband in the kitchen
having a discussion about the washing up
which Joe was supposed to be doing
but was obviously doing badly.
They are both very good natured & laid back
so the conversation Jess & I overheard was very amusing.
We chose to watch
we all watched it,
the first time in ages
we have all watched a film together on a Saturday night.
It was very silly & very funny
and for the second time that day,
I couldn't stop giggling.
