Me and Helen were sitting under mom and dad's portico this morning. We were watching the world go by.
"Do you ever get bored not working?" Helen asked me.
I laughed.
"Never say you are to my father," I told her. "He will put you to work in his yard."
"Seriously, though," Helen said. "Do you?"
"Sometimes," I replied. "I do well with the structure work can bring to life. Like taking showers and eating on a schedule."
"I'm bored right now," Helen then said.
"And you're working!!!" I replied laughing.
"Don't think the irony escaped me," Helen said with a smile.
Helen has a sister named Juanita. Dad says Jaunita is much more personable and likable.
"You would love her," he told me not too long ago.
I tried to imagine someone with a better personality than Helen and couldn't. I'm smitten.

Better personality? Helen is a total sweetheart, and you can tell her I said so. If her sister is even more likable she must be a saint... ;-)
As Helen it would appear, is smitten with you :-)
I'd love to have a Helen sitting on the porch with me. Especially one who cooked so well. I'm glad she's your friend.
