I certainly need something light these days. Don't you? Here's a wee story that might help brighten your day.
A single friend of ours often asks me for help with household tasks like putting up her Christmas tree or checking her smoke detectors.
I'm only too happy to oblige most of the time although last week, I felt like I was her runner-up choice for assistance.
Let me explain.
She texted that she was having trouble with the brake lights on her car, and wondered if I could have a look.
"Mike," she wrote, " I have a manuel in the garage that could be helpful."
I had to smile at her typo.
"I didn't know you had a boyfriend in the garage. Is Manuel Spanish?"
A long pause and then,
"Actually, he's Mexican."
Our friend may not be a great speller but she does have a very good sense of humour.
