The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Feb. 17, 2024
The Penguin. (Language)
Time to watch the “Blues Brothers” movie again—love the humor and music.
**no offense intended.
Fun fact:
Blues Brothers (1980) – 104 cars destroyed 60 police cars were purchased for the making of this film – and none survived. The most cars destroyed in a movie is 532 in “Transformers” 2011.
Writer’s Workshop – Agree

It’s not much fun if we all agree. We’re not all branches from the same tree. Even in families that aim to please, there’s dissent in opinions which don’t always agree. Voices are sometimes raised or met with smiles, even praised. All make it interesting and never boring. But we draw the line when it comes to scoring.

What day is it anyway?
Sitting here sipping my crème brûlée
Sun’s decided to come out and stay
Thirty degrees is a fairly warm day
It’s Wyoming winter’s February way
Most last storm’s snow melted away
Perfect for basketball, watching plays.
Question for Valentines
From: NPR
Did the day you met your partner unfold like a romantic film?
My answer is definitely yes. But all romantic films end☺️
Wednesday Hodgepodge
1. What does love mean to you? Total commitment of unconditional love.
2. Is love blind? Sometimes.
3. How do you remember Valentine’s Day as a kid? Do you have any special plans for the day this year? Making and receiving valentines with a party at school. Getting together with daughter and granddaughter today.
4 Are you a fan of the movie genre known as ‘rom-com’? What’s your favorite (or one of your favorites)? Not usually but lately I’ve seen a few.
5 What’s something you recently put your heart into? I think I put my heart into writing but doing for and being with family is the best.
6. Insert your own random thought here. My oldest granddaughter is 28 today🥳
