Code Red!

Here is my little Saturday Centus story linked to week 150 of that meme.  To read other offerings just click here.

The prompt is actually the words 'Code red!' and they are in bold.

Code Red.  Code Red.

Get out of bed!

The children are running around naked.

Code Red. Code Red.

My complexion’s dead!

I throw water on my face to revive it.

Code Red, Code Red.

Dogs and childrens aren’t fed

Can I throw all some dog biscuits in my hurry?

Code Red, Code Red.

My aching head.

Isn’t it Wednesday?  What is she thinking?

Code Red. Code Red.

I am being led

Like a lamb to a slaughter of eye rolling.

Code Red. Code Red.

I know he said,

“My Mother’s not coming until Thursday!”

Code red!   Code Red!

Why did I wed?

A man who can’t read the calendar?
