We had ice skates.

Just friends.

Getting a bike for my 13th birthday which apparently was too late to learn to ride it well😂.

Rarely would friends stay over and I always preferred my own bed instead of a friend’s.

Today a kickstart was a Turkish hazelnut latte. Any messages or calls from the kids is the best start.❤️

If I Were….Prompt Questions

Posted by Dale

Earlier this week, Ally Bean of the Spectacled Bean revisited a prompt she had first done in 2011. Said 1/3 of her responses had remained the same but that time had given her a new perspective, if you will. I figured why not? Interesting subjects…

Here are my answers to Dale’s post:

If I were a month I’d be May

If I were a day I’d be Friday

If I were a time of day I’d be Sunset

If I were a font I’d be Tahoma

If I were a sea animal I’d be an Otter

If I were a direction I’d be Sideways

If I were a piece of furniture I’d be an overstuffed chair

If I were a liquid I’d be a Latte

If I were a gemstone I’d be a Sapphire

If I were a tree I’d be a Sugar Maple

If I were a tool I’d be a Rasp

If I were a flower I’d be a Daffodil

If I were an element of weather I’d be a Hurricane

If I were a musical instrument I’d be a Drum

If I were a colour I’d be Red

If I were an emotion I’d be Happy

If I were a fruit I’d be a Macintosh Apple

If I were a sound I’d be a Baby’s Laugh

If I were an element I’d be Fire

If I were a car I’d be a 1966 Mustang

If I were a food I’d be Bacon

If I were a place I’d be a Cabin in the Woods

If I were material I’d be Silk

If I were a taste I’d be Sweet

If I were a scent I’d be Cinnamon

I Gotta Go

Heard this on Seal Team👍🏻

Ain’t got time to shoot the breeze, got no time to blow
Excuse me mister if you please, I gotta go
Born one mornin’ on the day of the dead in a bombed out bungalow
My momma kissed my cheek and said, I gotta go

[Chorus:]
I gotta go somewhere
I gotta go
Waistin’ time standin’ here
I gotta go

They put me in an orphanage west of Tupelo
I told ’em when I burnt that bridge, I gotta go
Stole a car, got a gun robbed the Hidey-Ho
I left Memphis on the run, I gotta go

[Chorus]

Five card stud duces wild, three kings in a row
I turned that diamond duce and smiled, I gotta go
They tracked my down, took my take, brother don’t you know
I told ’em boys, there’s some mistake, I gotta go

[Chorus]

Cold steel up against my head, they turned the lights down low
In case you didn’t hear I said, I gotta go
These are your very last words sir, say ’em nice and slow
My last words on this planet were…

[Chorus x2]

Guilty as Charged

Secrecy would hang there in the court house while the litigious plaintiff shuffled nervously in his seat. The defensive side uttered the sounds of pleasure as their win was certified by the jury foreman. The defense’s fight over their usurped custom design of the device were proved and the complainant’s infringement defeated.

CUSTOM HOUSE PLEASURE

Life is Up to You

Under the open sky beneath heaven and above hell rule…you. It is all within you, your mind and body. The channel of time is partially up to you also; being careful, making wise decisions, resisting the urgency to flow with the crowd even though you know it’s not the right choice. Living the interesting serial of your life depends on you and your choices.

Confused

Well doc I don’t know what he was thinking. I was out on the dock when it happened. Usually he just shapes the dough into a reindeer for the Christmas bake contest but this year it looked more like a tiger instead of a doe. I think it was the chocolate striped effect that made it different. But who doesn’t love chocolate?

SoCS – Is this a joke?

Oh come on, don’t tell me you didn’t think that…
I can predict that the fire alarm will go off and a fire engine and probably an ambulance will show up today. 90% of the days here at this complex, it happens and no longer do I frantically don a coat or shoes and roll up to the lobby. I’ll be sitting, reading, all is quiet and then I’m transported a few feet off my chair by the humongously loud fire alarm. Apparently the water pipes in the building trigger it when it’s really cold…huh?? It’s so loud I keep noise canceling headphones nearby. Seriously!because it will go off about five times in three or four minute intervals.

I’m watching high school basketball – three games today for my granddaughter. I am having problems getting posts from you all since my email is new, so bear with me on responses. Have a good one!!
