If you want a tan in ten minutes time I suggest you get a ten ton tun of “Fun in the Sun”! It’s harmless but be careful, it works really fast, and you need a lot cause one dip in water, it doesn’t last!

I don’t lay out as the kids put it, my skin just turns red. Happy Saturday!

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS April 25, 2026

The Sunday Whirl

***

Joe stood at the door, the bell tones a distant ring in his mind. The key he knew wouldn’t fit in the lock as he wished it would, but tried it anyway. A list of his actions, an invisible bill he would not forget and her spoken limits, spilled like a smoke miasma over the entryway. Still, he kept standing there, waiting, wanting to hear the click of her high heeled shoes and the silky slide of satin fabric against her body.

Friday Fictioneers

***

Painted iron based keys, a mystery to the small hands fiddling with great grandma’s belongings. Hands tiny, but minds heavy with curiosity. What would these keys open – a small box of secret treasures? Carol stifled a giggle as she looked at her sister, two years older. Maybe she knew, but then Mary shook her head nervously and hoped they’d get back to the tea garden soon. Mary was not the adventurous type and certainly never wanted to disappoint mother. Carol thought they were just sitting there in the bowl, and quickly snatched one for her apron pocket.

V is VOTE!!!

***

V is for vote, and this year, it is super important you do so! For yourself, your families, your children’s futures. Think of a library where you could no longer let your child pick out the book they want to read, or being accepted in a college class, eat at your favorite restaurant, etc, etc….Think of the freedoms you use every day and what it would mean to not have them anymore. I’m asking you to think and VOTE!

We looked out the window
Saw nothing but snow

Kids were squirrelly
“What can we do now?”

Parents spied their looks of doom
Decided to move to the other room

“I know what, popcorn balls!”
Mom’s expectations were small.

Dad started popping the corn
The popper looked pretty worn.

He over estimated its capacity
Mom thought, what audacity!

His not reading the recipe
Turned the kitchen to a messily

Full blown popcorn popper’s delight
Popcorn everywhere caused a fight

Mom and dad ever so sad
Butter sugar mess was what they now had

Kids gloom just disappeared
Faces with corn butter smeared

Parents slumped in chairs looking tired
Kids now smiling, their parents admired

Saturday Slime Day it was named

Used it Saturdays when weather was lame.

Q R S is for…

***

The Quality Run System….yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is my opinion…for my country’s government. The quality of the president’s cabinet is a fine example of how one man can look for the most depraved, demented quacks and put them in charge of our most important jobs. These jobsters decide your health, your safety, your money, your position in the world, and I have to laugh at the education commander who formerly led the WWE…sorry about that, I had a giggling fit. All unQualified, all join other cabinet members attaching puppet strings to their uniforms. And you might query…who’s pulling the president’s strings, might that be my R?
