A Halloween challenge for every one to try. Turn those screams to laughter and the scary things will hide.
I think I need a mummy
To help with house hold chores
They are wrapped in rags
So they can dust and more.
Need to wash a floor?
Wet a mummy well
Drag it through the rooms
Better than a mop I hear tell
Don't need a zombie
They make too big a mess
Where the next body part falls
Is anyone's guess
Vampires have a drinking problem
Werewolves always shed
Ghosts go through everything
And the Horseman has no head.
So give me a mummy
With rags of clean white
I'll hand it Pledge
With orders to work all night.

Yes, a mummy (both) is always useful. :-)
A fun write! Enjoyed reading it.
-HA
After doing without a domestic help for two weeks, I need a mummy in rags as well. There sure is a lot of dust around here and I do like the smell of Pledge. I wonder if I can get her to use it the next time. I will have to look into it. Of course, nothing is really natural wood here. I think that is a prerequisite, isn't it?
smiles...such a mummy would come in handy at times.. and true..zombies are too messy for household chores..smiles
Dust-rag..you betcha!
How wonderful! Glad to know I have this list to check, in case a mummy comes to call :)
Love IT love IT love IT... this is humorous and wonderful.. good job Gail... did i say i love it?
and a mummy mummy can be even more dedicated.. werewolfs shedding hair is a big nuisance, not to mention allergies.. This was a great fun read
hahahaha....wet the mummy and drag it room to room...lol...i love your treatment of the prompt...too funny gail

Very clever! Yes, a mummy would do best for dusting and polishing. Easy to toss into the washer when finished.

Both "maid" and "housecleaner it seems, the "Mummy" of my dreams! I'll take one! Clever write!!
Mummy rules! Love this! GREAT write...and I want one too to help clean up!
Loved it . . . you "worked this" beautifully and left me smiling!
Now where can I get a mummy? I never thought how useful they might be until I read your cute and fun Halloween read. =)
Gail,
I think you've sold all of us on Mummies!!! In fact, I could use one about now. I'm mopping the floor.
Ha!ha!How very clever but be careful lest "Mummy" become unraveled;-)Great word play :-)
hahaha
Love it!
=D
awesome!

happy halloween!
Nope, no zombies need apply. All those body parts dropping every where would only make for more chores. And werewolves, well the cats already shed enough. I'll take a mummy too!
Happy Halloween!
