Loti Lovely was a singer in the rock group Blue Lions by night. With a little sleep, she was on to her way to her day job.
Well it was not a paying job, but one where she volunteered from her church, Prince of Peace. She would visit the shut ins bringing an arrangement of flowers and a small meal, keeping them company.
She had not visited Mrs Schell before, and she did not want to be late. Loti's feet petaled as fast as she could. Arriving finally at Mrs Schell's home, she laid the bike against the brick wall, picking from the basket her plant with the lovely yellow flowers. She also had to carry in the Chinese egg rolls. Balancing everything made her feel like a juggler.
Mrs Schell had put on the coffee. Loti handed her the flowers, and she placed them on the small round table next to the chair. The room Loti noticed was sparsely furnished. Mrs Schell sat on the chair and Loti stood to eat. There was a small TV in the corner of the room with a DVD, it caught Loti by surprise. So she asked, "What programs do you like?"
" I like a variety. I have a DVD that you would like also. I was so happy when you arrived, and I saw who my guest was, because I can share this with you."
Mrs Schell put on the DVD, and there was Loti with her rock group. Mrs Schell sang along knowing all the words, and Loti joined in. This was a perfect match.

That was a perfect little story! Lovely ending.
Mrs Schell is staying hip.
The lesson: Never judge a book by its cover.
Cute story.
I have a feeling Mrs Schell and Loti are going to be great friends! LOL
Loved it! I can relate to the "She also had to carry in the Chinese egg rolls. Balancing everything made her feel like a juggler." Great imagery.
