Everything’s her fault.
She missed the UPS delivery
sunning by the pool.
She left the shutter open
on the camera
ruining the battery.
He sets her up for defeat
as he anchors the house.
She takes her masters in February
but she’s defensive as a naughty child,
hobbled as the three-legged cat
she furtively feeds.
If you write a Friday Flash 55 (a story in 55 words, no more, no less) make sure you let the G-Man know.

So often, we really are our own worst enemies. A very thought-provoking 55, Yvonne.
You wrote this one with style, flair and barely-concealed fury.
Fiercely done, Yvonne!
Oh dear... sounds like my eldest daughter's thought of the day.
It is sad that she thinks her daddy
always disapproved of her.
I love your 55!Says so much in just 55!
Happy Easter!

If you come back....I couldn't leave a comment on your blog, but I liked your school bus story
I hope this isn't true about him!
Wow. Not sure if everything is really her fault or he tells her it is.
Amy,
But of course, nothing is truer than fiction.
Suzanne,
