Joe wanted to play in a band
The problem he had was his hand
Missing fingers two
Took off his shoe
Now plays best guitar in the land!

Supermoon on November 14 is closest to Earth since 1948 http://www.earth.com
Here are this week’s questions:
1. Do you like fireworks? Love them!
2. Do you think fireworks should only be used by professionals? Yes!
3. Do you think today’s fireworks are value for money?We just go to the park and watch for free.
4. What is your favourite and least favourite firework? My favorites are the ones that go slowly down light raining flowers. My least favorites are the loud boom and no lights.
Gratitude: I have a lot to be grateful for this week! Spent quality time with a friend and family and a helpful doctor visit.☺️

Election Comic Relief
Claytoonz made me laugh today which was a good thing considering I had just spent two hours trying to get a website to accept my password. The paragraph is written by Clay Jones after the news of PNUT the squirrel and his companion, a raccoon when both had to be euthanized…see the story on the news or here: https://claytoonz.com/2024/11/04/candidate-nucketfutz/
Clay wrote: “This is very sad, right? Of course, it is. But then, MAGAts glommed onto the story and milked it as if the squirrel had been raped by a Venezuelan immigrant. Do not be surprised if Trump isn’t in a pet cemetery for a photo-op by the end of the day with the squirrel’s family.”
And yes I think it’s funny and yes I would not be surprised to see that photo op.😂

dVerse Poets – Prosery
Walking the leaf-strewn path, the sounds of one season disintegrating under my feet; above I feel the feathery white flakes out of the ninth-month midnight. It’s an early winter surprise, but I take joy in the chill. A fresh white blanket covers my western view this morning, and the ranch animals will be hard to wake. Cold breezes greet me and I don my well-worn parka that’s seen better days. Multiple baby goats yanked at the nylon bringing to view the downy lining and there are stains of cows’ cud on the sleeves, but it’s still warm. I greet the horses and stroke their warm muzzles and long necks. They always like reassurance in the morning. Only chickens and ducks are noisy demanders for their breakfast. Ranching is the only life for me, relaxing and rewarding.

“Oh my gosh great grandpa, why would they do that?”
“It was the election results, you know, back when Trump got re-elected? The whole world turned crazy and some I guess thought it was their only choice.”

She thought it would be a bridge. Instead it served as a wedge. Relationships were supposed to be give and take. This was her attempt to give of herself and her ideas. He listened a bit and then walked out. He never realized she was really a Republican.

Sunday’s Six Sentence Story Word Prompt!
The Sunday Whirl
Joe sighs, seeing ravaged blue skies flip into the gray of November. Ashes from his camp fire emerge into the chilled wind and then soak into the damp forest floor. A heavy wool weave masks the icy temperatures against his skin. Joe is saddened at the loss of autumn brilliance to bare limbs. Winter is upon him but he’s taking one last hike before the snow covers the trails.

MLMM – Phobias

“Let’s go on a cruise, it’ll be fun”, she said
Pictured a luxury liner in my head
Then as we arrived on the dock
Looked at her as I’m in shock
“It’s a pirate ship”, I exclaimed!
“It’s going to be great”, she proclaimed.
I looked at her, my expression blank
“Better enjoy, or you’ll walk the plank!”
Threats aside we did have a great time
Next vacation, her choice will be fine.
