A Dollar

What can you get for a dollar these days?

Well, let me tell you what it got me.

Start of last year I was just stepping out of my car at Walmart. When I saw a note on the ground. Not knowing what it was I bent down to pick it up when WHAM a pick up knocked me six feet in the air.

Broke every bone in my body, ten months in recovery, lost my job at the bank, and my wife left me for my stuck up boss. Took her yapping finger biting King Charles with her.

Now, I'm living in this trailer, got a job in the nursing home, and spend most of my free time writing these weird stories.

All because of a dollar.

Celebrations from TV.

My wait is over it's Midnight New Years.

I write quickly in the magic book.

'The note that I picked up in Walmart before crash is not a dollar note but a hundred dollar note.'

Now my life is complete.

I grab a beer and celebrate with my new partner.
