“Evie, help me. I think...I don’t...” I struggled to understand Nora’s words through the poor phone connection and her hysterical sobs. "I'm afraid he's…" Why was she calling me?
I mostly remember how I got here. As far as I can tell, it happened about a year ago, but it’s hard to say. I can always see the clock on the clean, white wall, ticking my life away, one second at a time, but there’s no calendar in sight.
You can do the math. After all, you’re an accountant. Forty-five minutes ago, your husband said he'd be home in an hour. He should be home soon. Dinner's almost ready, just pop the enchiladas into the oven when he gets here.
When Jeeves quit after working only twenty minutes of vacuuming one sunshiny spring morning, I didn't think it was that big a deal. Maybe he hadn't gotten fully charged at his comfy docking station. I picked the dear little thing up and placed him carefully back at his home. His tiny orange heart started beating, telling me he was happily charging. All was well with the world. I was so glad I had a Roomba.
