TURN OUT THE LIGHTS!
OLD MAN REMEMBERING: When I was young, my father who was quite frugal - no make that cheap - would walk through the house turning out lights and yelling out the numbers = "That's one; that's two; that's three....." I never noticed how many lights were left on until I began to pay the electric bill. Now, I walk through my house turning off lights thinking "That's one; that's two; That's three...." I would never yell it out - the wife might flatten me.
A "STONE" is a family word for a personal story or thought, not quite an essay or short story. Lake living w/3 wirehair dachshunds (Oscar the ball boy, Bruno the larger twin, and sweet Sadie who is 5 years old) & my wife -- penned by a retired Texas H.S. band director - just nonsense thoughts unrelated to each other or anything other than daily happenings and comments.
