raking leaves

this past saturday mom asked me to come over and rake up all the leaves from her yard so i tossed on some old clothes that i didn’t care if they got dirty and my hi-top Reebok princesses and set out to clean up mom’s yard without tying my shoelaces. Mom hadn’t noticed until it had gotten too dark to keep working and called me in for a hot ziti dinner. By then i’d clipped my left shoelace five times, had to shift my stance twice because I was standing on the same said shoelace and even tripped once because I stepped on the same left shoelace. Fortunately I never fell or got hurt but my laces sure are dirty from dragging about in the dirt as I worked.
