Wanda has taken residence with us.  (When we lived in Brigham City, there were many unexplained occurrences  that happened.  I kid you not.  One of our employees, in all seriousness, said her 12 year old daughter saw a ghost.  There were a few things that happened to me that cannot be explained.  Things moved from one place to another in a matter of five minutes.  Things disappeared, voices were heard, sounds from the alley, etc.  We affectionately named this ghost Wanda.  Wanda has followed us around here and there.  Now I believe she is in our mission.)  We did not invite her, but she is here I believe.

As most of you know, we love avocados.  However it is not the season right now for avocados.  We have missed them, for we used to have them almost every meal.  We had them on sandwiches, in salads, with guacamole, etc.  Well, it isn't the season for them right now, and we are depressed.  This morning, I found one of the neighborhood people selling avocados.  I purchase one for 50 pesos.  That is about $1.25.  To expensive, but I bought it as a surprise for Bonnie.

Today was our time to have the fumigator come and spray our apartment.  He comes, sprays it, we have to leave for a while, it does it's killing, and we return and blow out the fumes so it won't kill us.  The avocado was sitting on the counter when we left after the fumigator finished.  When we got back, it was gone.  We have searched the whole apartment for it, for we felt it was gold.  It cost gold, and is very scarce.  We feel awful.  It was taken by Wanda I am sure.  I don't have any other explanation.  It is no where to be found.

Tonight, Bonnie was crocheting or sewing, or whatever she was doing, and she had a phone call from one of our daughters.  She got up, took the phone, and promptly lost her hanky she was sewing.  We have searched the whole apartment again and cannot find it.  There are only so  many places it could be, and we are both shaking our heads.  Where oh where art though oh avocado and hanky?  Oh dear Wanda, please put them back where you got them. --- Wanda has taken up residence with us.


WANDA OH WANDA

The guy on the left of the pineapple is the avocado.
