made her bed, did her dishes, and gave her a shower! Then I went to my second

chance to see my advisor and got cleared to sign up for classes.

You used many of the symbols and it looks like it may be using allot of anapest and doctyl. :) it was good!
ReplyDeleteUggh! I absolutely hate in home care now, I just couldn't stand it any longer. I applaud you. I have definitely had clients that do that same thing but about ten times worse, if you can imagine that. I used to have a guy that would stand and watch me clean, room to room. I quit that client, too creepy for me.
ReplyDeleteThis whole scansion thing is definitely something that requires lots and lots of practice. Take the first line, for instance:
ReplyDeleteHi! How was your day?
