Sometimes I construct puzzles during my spare time. There is one particular puzzle that I like to work on when I have nothing better to do, such as when I’m riding in the car. All I need to make the puzzle is a piece of paper, something to write with, and some brain power. If I can finish one of these puzzles during time that would otherwise have been wasted, it’s like finding a $20 bill.
One day, we were on a longish drive. My hubby was at the wheel, so I had nothing better to do than construct one of these puzzles. But I was having some trouble coming up with the entries. I needed a word that could precede ALE, like GINGER or PALE. Naturally, I asked my hubby for some help. He said, “I ate some bad fish, and now I feel ALE.”
Smart-ass!
But that’s how my hubby helps, by infuriating me and making me laugh at the same time! 🙂
