Let’s bow our heads in solemn repose
While words of the debate feed our woes
It was not unexpected as debates go
We need to bury this one and forward go
Rest in peace common sense.

I am a widow since 2013 and live by myself in a small apartment. I use a wheelchair to get around, but I wouldn't consider myself disabled. I'm 11 years away from having bladder cancer resulting in a urostomy and I'm doing well. This cancer was a result of having radiation in 1995 because of uterine cancer. So have faith in yourself, a cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence. My first try at blogging was an attempt to help other people with my condition. I am a mother of three married children, and a grandmother to eight gorgeous kids, featuring them often here, and a great grandmother to two as of today, 6/7/25! I enjoy exploring my feelings and like to try the challenges. I like humor, music, movies, games, and some sports. I absolutely appreciate your reading and commenting on my blog. I am happy to read all of your blogs and learn more about you. Please comment however you like, ask whatever, and I'll answer honestly. Thanks for reading! Cheryl
Eugi’s Weekly Prompt
I wish I had a crystal ball
For the future I would aim
Seeing all that happiness
Would be my only claim
I believe in miracles
Life would be dull without them
Need a magic wish or wand?
You can count me in!

Word of the Day: Sustain
Do not give up
The war’s not won
It takes all
To sustain the one.

Cyranny’s 1MinFiction
“Joe. You’re being foolish, people are not going to take this seriously, there is no virus, it’s simply a ploy to scare people. Now get on the trolley before we can’t find a seat!”
Joe steps on the bus, turns to his wife, pulls up his mask, and sits down. Luckily she cannot see his expression.

What we need at the next debate is an automatic mute button after your two minutes are up and when your opponent is speaking. Sign language wouldn’t work.

Colleen’s Weekly Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge
September leaves us
Comes in autumn, call it fall
Frosty pumpkins, all
The favorite colored leaves
Drifting down from the roof’s eaves

Squirrel’s Dilemma
Baby Abert Squirrel
Let me be candid, my name’s not Frank
In fact for most of us, names don’t rank
I’m comfortably ensconced up in this pine
I consider it a tax free home of mine
It’s only when park visitors come to call
I turn corybantic and run from them all.

Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge 9-29-20
The child sits in wonder, oblivious to the danger. Our job is protection–from predators certainly, and politics today, streaming violence and harsh words. Children are natural sponges, absorbing the world around them. Let’s make it a pleasant sea to swim.
