FRED AT BEDTIME

 FRED AT BEDTIME

 Fred decided to go to bed
 His wife Hazel was already in bed
 Well I guess I’m going to bed Fred said
 Would you shut the ****
 Would you be quiet Fred?
 I’m trying to sleep over here
  
 Fred quietly slipped into bed
 He wasn’t very comfortable
 His house robe was still on
 It had been a gift from Hazel
 Thanks again for the robe Hazel
 Shhh!  Said Hazel
  
 Fred threw the robe away
 He had never liked it 
 Chenille had never been a hit with him
 Hazel recovered the discarded robe
 She took it to Goodwill Industries
  
 Scouting the bins she
 Found a silk robe and
 Thought it would fit Fred
 She liked him in robes and
 Sometimes referred to them as smoking jackets
 Fred did not smoke
  
 It’s very nice said Fred after
 He had tried it on
 Thank you Hazel
 The next day
 Fred left home
 He stopped at the Grocers
 He loved oranges
