Sue became what she dreaded, a cruel excuse for the split personality she usually kept hidden. This year seemed different, she had befallen into constant judgment of herself. Not anyone close, but one look in the mirror, became extra morose. She couldn’t keep the truth from coming out when she was alone. She tried to grow out of of it but even in her twenties, it was too hard to pretend. Maybe this would be the time to see a professional.

Here are this week’s questions:
1. Do you enjoy or get frustrated with the run up to the festive holidays? This year I’m just grateful to be alive.

2. Do you like family gatherings on a regular basis? Definitely.

3. What is your favourite family memory?
Too many to say!

4. Do you prefer to be a host or visitor for a special occasions? Years ago the host, now an observer😄

Gratitude : I’m happy that we are starting to get well after a month of yucky feelings. We are tired and no appetite but hope to see each other before the year runs out. Also I am grateful for all messages received of kindness and good will. Thanks to all!

Wishing you a fine new year!

The Sunday Whirl

***

At midnight, a chill in my feverish night as a dream wavers on the edges of slumber, and the sight of you blurs. You are not there, but as the chain of love might stray, it never breaks. I rise to the window seeing the joyous drops of white as the snow begins. I might even hear a soft twinkle of bells in the distance initiating the beginning of a new year, always commencing this way. The vision then dissipates and the bells chime louder.

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

A window, possibly a mirror? I think often the US Supreme Court must be looking into windows of war and instigating conflict, reflecting no actual justice. It’s obvious it is not a court of unbiased judges, but acting on some personal agenda that has nothing to do with maintaining its citizens in a peaceful nation. The highest court in the USA should be an honorable, respected position and ruling for the benefit of every American. Sadly, this SCOTUS is not.

I certainly could use a spruce up, especially since I’ve been under the weather for almost a month now. My body has waned and I really have no Christmas spirit. I have a few gifts to wrap bought a while ago and made a batch of cookies to gift with my daughter doing most of the work, bless her. All of my gifting plans have gone by the wayside as I’m trying to recap my strength. However, our family is getting together around the 28th so hope to be fine by then. The older the grandkids get, the more busy, so schedules have to stretch. It’s just wonderful to get us all together no matter the date.

🕊️Wishing you all Happy Holidays!🕊️

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Dec. 23, 2023

Legendary

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
A legend in his own mind
I heard the men talk in line
Was it jealousy that fueled their ire
Or lack of ambition, eager to retire?
A soldier’s lot is not easy,
a hard choice for life’s path
Simple fear of confrontation causing enemies’ likely wrath?
This comical depiction of a soldier bold perhaps not the real story ever told
for tales of bravery and strength
May go on too long in length
An image here perceived
Is easily disbelieved.

Christmas 2003

This is the first day I have not pumped my body full of drugs trying to feel better, actually ate some food, but my head doesn’t want me looking at much, so basically —BORING! I’m hoping to feel well enough tomorrow to wrap a few things, but the kids below (six of eight) are older now and it’s easier. Wishing you well❤️💚🕊️
