The Sunday Whirl

***

Stopping to read the praiseworthy inscription on the face of the tombstone, she thought, “this death memento is pure fiction”. Even the prayer vigil held was an abomination in her eyes. There were barriers set up, but some protesters climbed over them, with a few finding ways to disrupt the mourners’ activities. As “facts” stated in his books, along with supposed letters of reward, were dragged out—made up versions of his achievements, she looked on at the sorrowful. Her facial expression incredulous to think his lying tongue spouted only hate and division. Even in death he seemed to have won.

Six Sentence Story – Ingredient

***

My best ingredient for life is humor—agreed not always accepted as such, but that’s their brain, not mine.

Family, love, hugs and smiling—yes SMILING, can be seen right through our pesky masks and by the way, I hope you’re still using them, every little bit helps.

And the word little gets to another important ingredient, the little things that you notice making life livable, pleasant, and worth living.

It could be anything—your hot creamy morning latte, your dog’s smile of thanks when you set down a food bowl, a new bloom on your houseplant, the peeking up of spring flowers, or a bird momentarily pausing on your windowsill-as in most things, whatever floats your boat.

My boat has needed these ingredients and little things to keep me sane, how about you?

Snoopy always knows best.

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

***

“Today I will give a new beginning, a beautiful fresh world; a place for you and your family to live free and be recognized as the leading species on this entire planet!”

The man hesitated, checking his notes, realizing that was possibly too broad a statement, a purport of sorts. He looked to his campaign manager for advice to which he received “thumbs up”.

3TC – Lion or Lamb 3-12-22

March came in, settled as a lovely sunny day, no need to firtle your mind about it. The stocky ice was turning to needed water and it looked like spring had sprung! Then of course, this is Wyoming and the next week was again below freezing temperatures.

SoCS – Trip

***

Lately I’ve been taking a trip to war zones with the Cordell Logan mysteries, written by David Freed. Cordell is one of those characters I love, former Seal, etc. If you decide to listen to this series, skip “Fangs Out” as it is narrated by a horrid monotone boring person. Read it instead.😉

You will have to excuse my use of “o” and “i” mistakes as they sometimes get by my tired old eyes. At least if something comes across as shocking using them, you’ll know why. 🙄

Yesterday I had the privilege of riding around with my daughter and her daughter- we are 75, 50, and 25. We always have a fun time and noticed we all made slight groans getting back into the car which caused unified laughter. Mine from sitting too long in the wheelchair, my daughter walking too long on her bad knee and my granddaughter having had hip surgery she’s still recovering from. What a trio!😀 No matter. It’s always a fun trip!

#writephoto anniversary – crown

***

Happy one year anniversary and thanks for taking over the prompt💐

***

Who should wear this crown, surely a larger head than mine

It’s gaudy over decorated shape holds jewels opaque—no shine?

To say it’s ugly would be harsh, but I’m no connoisseur

I’m just glad it’s not my head the heaviness to endure.
