Lisa Wins a Cookie

As I mentioned two days ago, the right turn signal on my van stopped working. (Replacing the bulb didn't work. Corresponding signals on the utility trailer didn't work, but did when pulled behind Lisa's pickup.) I walked over to the auto-repair shop down the street, and they told me they were backed up until Christmas. Hanneman's Towing Service (where we get our propane) suggested a local mobile mechanic. When we came back from getting the propane and dropping off our Christmas cards, Lisa decided that she would take a crack at the tail light issue this morning, despite the temperature being about -2° C. I returned to grinding my way through a tedious database design project.

After a while, Lisa came in and asked if I would buy her a cookie and get pizza for dinner tonight.

( It always seems so easy after you explain it, Holmes )

I said that I have no problem with buying her cookies and pizza tonight.
