A Delirium-Induced Ditty

The snow and ice have finally melted. What a relief! I drive myself crazy when the only person I have to talk to is me. You know the old saying, “Just don’t start answering yourself.” Who else is there to answer you when you’re icebound with a sick person? I’m reduced to cabin fever induced delirium.

Hi ho Hi ho,
There’s no more ice and snow;
Me and my van will fulfill plans.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
To the carwash I will go;
Wash off the dust and stop the rust.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
To the post office I’ll go;
I’ll mail Nick’s cake that I did bake.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
To Sav-a-Lot I’ll go;
I’ll get supplies and other buys.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
To the library I’ll go;
I’m on the hook to bring Jack’s book.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
Then to the bank I’ll go;
I have a peck of uncashed checks.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.

Hi ho Hi ho,
To Mamie’s I will go;
I’ll go see Jack when I get back.
Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho Hi ho.
