Learning where to carry your wallet
One fall day
I was using my lawn tractor to chop leaves out back. I took my
hearing aid out and put it in my wallet to keep the dust out of
it. I put the wallet in my shirt pocket with the intention of taking
it in the house when I got back into the main yard. But something
distracted me.
I started blowing the leaves when my dog
jumped up on me, wanting me to pet him. I finished blowing the
leaves and burned them. When I missed my wallet, I discovered that
the bottom of my shirt pocket had come unseamed. My wife and I
looked for the wallet and couldn’t
find it. The next day, I decided to blow the driveway off and found
only the metal social security card.
I had burned up $859 and my
hearing aid. I have learned the hard way about putting my wallet
in my shirt pocket.
