Eighth time

[marval]

An overweight business associate of mine decided it was time to shed some excess pounds.

He took his new diet seriously, even changing his driving route to avoid his favourite bakery.

One morning, however, he arrived at work carrying a gigantic coffeecake. We all scolded him, but his smile remained cherubic.

"This is a very special coffeecake," he explained. "I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning and there in the window was a host of goodies.

I felt this was no accident, so I prayed, 'Lord, if you want me to have one of those delicious coffeecakes, let me have a parking place directly in front of the bakery', and sure enough," he continued,

"the eighth time around the block, there it was!"

Had to ponder on that one, not bad tho. Incidentally, thanks for your support about my dilemmas in Health & Fitness.

Hi Carlton, you didn't have to read it eight times did you? You are welcome for the support.
