Libby the Punching Bag

Deltaville, VA
NoLL

Before we retired, Libby worked with developmentally disabled adults. Several of her clients were uncoordinated or spastic. Therefore, poor Libby came home often with black and blue marks from getting hit, elbowed or punched; all inadvertent of course. One time, a sock knocked her out and broke her glasses. We used to joke that she was a professional punching bag.

Well I'm sad to say that I'm not much better than her clients. Today, at the end of our daily project chores, Libby was putting things away in the cabin while I was changing my shirt. POW my fist came out of the shirt armhole and punched poor Libby right in the face, knocking her glasses off. I don't think she'll get any black eye out of it but if she does, I'll feel terrible.
