Hey cartographer, you want to go through and proofread the story one more time. You had “mapping” down instead of “mopping.” Good luck to you though. Hopefully she’ll never know.

Thanks, will edit. English is not my first language, forgive me.

No worries on the spelling and some use of words. You did great. To aid in your english language skills, when you use a broom, we use the term "sweep" or while you are actively using the broom in the present tense, its "sweeping". When used in past tense, its "swept".

If Blackie is the dogs actual name, i would change it...that girl you mentioned might be a redditor and the amount of time spent on the phone could oust you if and when she finds this post. Change the name of the dog to "her most beloved dog" as most of us would understand that thats what the ashes are from...the dog.

Good luck OP. Enjoy your holidays and that birthday party. Dont say anything and dont act strange....act like you belong. If you act strange, people will figure something is going on.

Several times they said map instead of mop. I'm convinced they were looking for treasure when this happened.
