Jamie's Corner: I Need My Supply

In the movies, I am not the elegant lady that walks down the stairs and charms her guests with grace and beauty. I am the one that trips on her gown, spills wine on her new dress and tries to carry on a conversation with spinach stuck in between her teeth. Years ago, it used to affect my sense of self and make my depression worse. But I no longer see it that way. A writer once told me anything that does not go smoothly in life makes for a good story. I agree. And I have lots of stories.

My story this week: I Need My Supply! 

Jamie: Come on...I need my supply. I am out.

James: What exactly do you want?

Jamie: I have a list. Here it is.

James: I'll see what I can do. I am going out tonight. It depends on what's available though. Times have changed.

Jamie: It's me you're talking to, not just anyone. Get me what I need. I don't want to hear excuses. The good stuff is supposed to be available today. 

James: Calm down I'll be back shortly. 

Jamie: Ok. Ok. Fine. Thanks.

A short while later... 

James: Ok. I got it. I'm coming back now.

Jamie: Oh, what a relief.

James: Here mom. Here is an almond joy and a peanut butter cup.

Jamie: Thanks James. I appreciate it. You know how I like chocolate. I hope you had fun trick or treating tonight.
