I feel like a plant

And offer a rant

After a major decision

I’m suffering abscission!

It wasn’t planned so that’s a hint

Thought I could do it but obvious didn’t

Seemed a simple task at the time

Just have a drink and add a lime

The knife was sharp as recommended it be

But it slipped and I think it attacked me

One end of the lime was sitting there

Along with a finger tip in the air

Now I’m sitting in the ER

If I want a drink I’ll go to a bar!

I had a laugh this morning seeing my ice cream bowl left out from last night. I thought of Don Adams’ line to say if questioned about it…”would you believe cereal?” I know, but it’s the way my mind works😂

Our own minds, the decisions we make, how we arrive at certain conclusions, is difficult enough. Trying to make sense out of someone else’s decisions that we don’t necessarily agree with is mind boggling.

For the most part I would say my fellow followers—say that three times fast—and I agree on most subjects. That’s why we read other’s blogs and try to understand their point of view—kismet🥳. That’s the easy part. The hard part is trying to comprehend some radicals these days. And right there, choosing “radical” to describe “them” has already made my mind up…🙄😳😂

This week’s Story Starter teaser is:

Life had just seemed to pass me by until that day when….

that familiar knock was heard again. How could it be? I didn’t think he’d find me, but always hoping he would. The four taps and two knocks; I heard it again. I couldn’t help the smile spreading across my face, and that feeling in the pit of my stomach.

I wheeled to the door, hesitated, and then opened. He stood there holding my favorite flower and a sheepish grin. “Howya been, mate?”

A horrible result seen here as hazy air dissipates after a devastating fire.

Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Hazy – January 25, 2022

Your angry glare shows

Even through your medic’s mask

“Not vaccinated!”

Wear it

A smile, a frown,

Be up or down,

Let it show

So we will know

Either way, wear it!

Drifting in and out

My brain seems to pick and choose

Still hanging around

Happy, sad, need forgiveness

Memories—gift and a plague

1. Shopping in an actual store which now I find I miss the interaction.

2. Shaking hands, greeting strangers.

3. Cooking. I think probably this has increased for most but I don’t cook much for just myself.

4. Ambition. I feel I have been depressed with the pandemic, politics and general hateful attitudes of everyone that has increased the last few years.

5. Staying positive. Going along with the above thoughts, my creativity has also suffered.
