Being Babied

Gary came home and set about babying me.  He's been doing all the housework, keeping the cat at bay, letting me sleep. He took me to Dons Quality Market to get more provisions though we already had enough food to last through winter's blizzards and cold. Then he sorted all the canned goods. He hooked up a space heater in my office so my feet will stay warm.

He set up an extra phone in the kitchen.  He swabbed out the toilet.  He changed the sheets on my bed. He did the dishes. The house is cleaner than it's been since last Christmas.

He bought me ice cream and dark chocolate.  Every hour on the hour, he comes by and pats my head.

One more time and I bite his hand.
