Here are this week’s questions:

1.   Do you have any Keepsakes? Yes.

2.  We all have memories, what is your quirkiest? I can’t choose, just this morning I ended up juggling a canister of powdered creamer and gave myself a bath in it😳🙄

3.  Who is your oldest living relative? I really don’t know.

4.  Who is your youngest? Same…

Gratitude: I am grateful this morning to have a huge burden resolved. And as always family.

What Day is it Anyway?

Linda G Hill started this prompt a while ago, thank you Linda, and some days it is entirely appropriate. Going through my emails I received this:

I used this vendor to send my sister a bouquet when she was dying in hospital. Since then I had spent days waking up crying to the fact my last two sisters died within two weeks of each other and finally accepted this fact and face the morning with other thoughts. I think Murphy may be back😔

The Sunday Whirl

She spied a gap between the sky and the vast edge of the horizon. It was a frightening void and she blinked furiously, thinking it must be tired eyes seeing this. Her breath suddenly stopped, and she jerked back. The gap was now closing…Tightening the curling wrap around her she wished Joe was next to her. If ever there was someone who knew how to fix everything, it was Joe.

Hot and humid is what I think

Makes a person turn to drink

Iced tea, coffee or lemonade

Any cold liquid arrayed

Preferably in a glade

Where I sit in the shade

Of a huge big oak tree

Squirrels may throw acorns down at me

Sounds ridiculous, I know

But wide leaved shade makes me forego

Unpleasant thoughts of rascally rodents

I just sit back and enjoy the pleasant

Coolness of the tree and drink

A summer treat, don’t you think?

Sunday Confessionals : Summer

Marie started towards her home. Her sister, Sara, already home and asleep, dreamed of her purposeful mingle with others at the village gathering. Sara wanted the tingle sensation she heard other women received when the “right” man would sweep her off her feet.

What a naive dream, Marie thought, sadly encouraged by their mother. Their mother might as well have hung out a shingle advertising, “two daughters for sale”. The girls’ mother was afraid neither would marry and they would all end up penniless.

Marie had other plans. The night closed around her but the fireflies seemed a symbol of hope. Almost home, her mind searched for solutions.

Dindindun: Part of Beethoven’s famous fifth symphony (signature moves😉)

The Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67, also known as the Fate Symphony (German: Schicksalssinfonie), is a symphony composed by Ludwig van Beethoven between 1804 and 1808. It is one of the best-known compositions in classical music and one of the most frequently played symphonies,[1] and it is widely considered one of the cornerstones of western music. First performed in Vienna’s Theater an der Wien in 1808, the work achieved its prodigious reputation soon afterward. E. T. A. Hoffmann described the symphony as “one of the most important works of the time”. Wikipedia
