Revenge

I reckon y'all heard that the best revenge is living well. I were sitting on my front porch when it come to me that Hank Hankins done just that. You see his wife Glory Jean who were always a flashy type just itching to get herself in trouble, don't you know, run off and left him. She were attracted to a man from New Orleans she met at the Do Drop Inn. Drinking and all, don't you know. Hank were real let down when she left and walked around with a dark cloud over his head (you couldn't see it, but you knowed it were there) for about six months. One thing he done what were real smart, he canceled out all his credit cards and just started paying cash for stuff. And what he discovered were he were getting along a whole bunch better without Glory Jean around. One night he got him one of them long, yellow writing pads and drawed a line down it from top to bottom. And he commenced to write down all the bad things about having Glory around on the left side and he were intending to write all the good stuff on the right. Wouldn't you know he come up with having to keep turning the pages for the left side and he only come up with one thing on the right and that were she made real good strawberry short cake. What he done was go to Piggly Wiggly and asked Ms. Marshaller, the woman what runs the bakery part, how he could make his own strawberry shortcake and she give him the cake and sent him over to the produce for strawberries and to dairy for whipping cream and he went home and made one so good he were able to cross off the only entry on the right side of the pages. With all the money he were saving he bought him a used Thunderbird what you could take the top off and leave it at home. He were able to pay off all his bills and upped his tithe to the ten percent he ought to have been paying from the start.
Tomorrow I'll tell what happened to Glory Jean.
