Clean Floor

While carpenters were working outside the old house I had just bought, I busied myself with indoor cleaning.

I had just finished washing the floor when one of the workmen asked to use the bathroom. With dismay, I looked from his muddy boots to my newly-scrubbed floors.

“Just a minute,” I said, thinking of a quick solution. “I’ll put down some newspapers for you.”

“That’s all right, Lady,” he responded. “I’m already trained.”
