E

E, E, E. Who could have guessed how annoying challenging you would be?
Eggs. Would anyone like some Eggs? No.
Erie Dog. How about Erie Dog? Closed for the season.
Escalator, Elevator, Eleanor, Emeline, Euphonium, Elephant, Eskimo, Escargot? Not here. Not in this town.
Thank goodness for the Excavator! We've got those...lots of them. Just as I was about to convince myself that one E word was plenty for the letter of the day...And just as I was about to rewrite the unwritten rules to: 'One word is sufficient.', our neighbour La-La came to the rescue.
"What's the letter today?" he asked with a smile.
"It's not good La-La. We're struggling and the day is nearly over. The letter is E."
After some careful thought, he walked over to his garden shed and presented a flower pot.
"It's Empty." he proudly announced.I love it. Two E words. We thanked him with great glee and stepped back in the house for our nightly wind down. A few minutes later there was a knock at the door. With a tote bag in hand, La-La stood on our front porch and presented:
"Eleven books for you to borrow. Enjoy!"Extraordinary.
