Lucky 7 Meme and More

The wonderful Caitlin from http://caitlin-lane.blogspot.com/has tagged me for the Lucky 7 Meme!
This is what I had to do:
1. Go to page 77 of your current MS.
2. Go to line 7.
3. Copy down the next 7 lines - sentences or paragraphs - and post them as they're written. No cheating.
4. Tag 7 authors.
5. Let them know.
I'm not far enough forward to have 77 pages (paid work keeps getting in the way) so I went to P.17.
Here it is:
It was a vision but not a very nice one and she certainly couldn't say anything about it or Florence Townsend would think she was mentally unstable.
Faith quickly got up from the table taking her cup of tea over to the side and proceeded to scurry about putting up the ironing board and setting the iron to heat up.
Florence sighed and took the hint that try as she might she couldn't get Faith to treat her as an equal.  Yes, she worked for her but in Florence’s mind that didn't make her any less of a person but Faith was of the old school and wouldn't let any personal matters come into her working life.
So there you have it - one day I'll get (a)round to it -

ROUND TUIT
An circular object giving its owner the ability to get done everything that would have otherwise been put off to a later date
(Wiktionary online)

Finally, finding the time to accomplish something.
(Urban dictionary)

A POEM ABOUT THEM
This is a Tuit, and Tuits are rare,
Especially the round ones, so guard it with care.
How many times have you heard someone say
( or said it yourself at least six times a day )
“one of these days I really will do it….
I’ll do it as soon as I get around Tuit”
Well here’s your round Tuit, And good luck to you
Now there’s no limit to what you can do!
