SYW 3-17-25🍀

Here are this week’s questions:

  1. Have you ever been to an auction? Yes, it was fun.
  2. Were you ever in a school play or concert? Yes, was not fun.
  3.  In your working life, were you ever rewarded financially for your services apart from your salary? No, are you kidding? I was a lowly secretary.
  4.  How are your feeling today? I’m about to have another ultrasound on my right leg I broke December 6 and then an INR and another visit to wound care.🙄So It’s the luck of the Irish for me!

Gratitude: I am grateful my daughter and granddaughter take me to my appointments and we squeeze in some love and humor through it🥰

It’s a milestone for Di!

Let me tell you why

She picks a word times three

To challenge you and me.

Sometimes a story, sometimes a pic

You never know what will stick

But take up the pen or pencil you use

And give an answer, whatever you choose!

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

There are many meanings of the word mandate and quite the good definitions of what we are experiencing in the United States right now. Most appropriate is the number two from the Oxford dictionary: “a sick leader living beyond his mandate”. Anyone, anyone, Bueller? I like that one, and, “verb used by mandate is to give authority to act in a certain way” – anyone thinking of Musk with that one?

Weekend Writing Prompt #407 – Mandate

Semi Intelligent Phase

When it’s midnight and the moon is full

I can’t escape from my mind so dull

Medicines in a bowl

With a system I control

Upside down means they’re taken

Heaven knows I can’t be lacking

Two for thinning blood

One for blood pressure – good

So many others seems a glut

Doctors orders following I must

It seems unfair

I feel attacked

When a decade passed

And accidents lacked

Feeling put upon, no doubt

Trying not to freak out

Surgery ahead I don’t want

Will solve a problem that does haunt

After ten years thought I was fine

But now it seems I find

I’m in the elder age of decline.

***

I have a relative lovely and strong

He married my granddaughter

After a relationship long

Turns out he’s Hispanic

His appearance and life deserves a song

I’ll sing it to the rafters to defend him now

Because laws here in my state refuse their vows

He gives the best hugs as a family agrees

And laws that threaten bring us to our knees

There is no justice in these new laws

Some people agree and take pause

We have to change these goose-stepping crews

And keep freedom our choice and fight these views.
