Punchline | Olivia Creps

Visiting, one of the rare occasions to grace my family with. Of course the visit was for a funeral, so that wasn't too exciting, but at least I would get to see my family. I had only been there for six hours and my mother, Val, had already lost her glasses twice. That's not including the other times that she had lost her glasses the last time I had visited. They were usually discovered right where she thought she had placed them too.

The day of the funeral arrived and we all woke early so that we could have time to get ready. We were there on time. The only thing amiss was that my mom had left her glasses somewhere again and couldn't find them.

The funeral was for my mother's, mother's mother. So being the daughter, my grandmother stood to speak. She looked solemn as did the rest, but to start off her speech she said, "I have so many pairs of glasses in my purse that I just grabbed one out. I hope you don't mind that I am going to use yours Val."
