After that, he finished his route, delivering the morning’s mail with a little dose of gossip.The regular delivery boy for Pots and Posies was laid up at home with a broken arm, leaving Myra and George to take turns making their own floral deliveries. Myra was on a second trip to The Curl Up and Dye with orders for the Conklin twins’ birthday. Even though there were no men in their lives, their clients were obviously loyal because floral gifts kept coming.Myra came in with her arms full of vases and a smile on her face.“I’m back. It’s wonderful you girls have so many people who love you, but it’s also great for business.”Vesta and Vera were beaming.“This is so sweet,” Vera said.Vesta was touching up her client Rachel Goodhope’s roots. Rachel ran the Blessings bed and breakfast and liked to keep herself sharp for her public persona. She was probably one of the few people in Blessings who empathized with Patty June.
