Possibly it’s red tape that has caused my internet to go blooey lately. This entire week my email and WP is haphazard at best. If you don’t see my likes or comments, I can only say sorry, not from lack of trying. I tried watching my granddaughter’s soccer games and the NFHS network’s cameras were not working—nothing new. They charge to be a member but their service is horrid.
Exasperating as it is, I did experience a good thing. My Roku had stopped working (just another annoyance lately) and when I thought I should move it out from my tv stand, I dropped it. All of a sudden the tv came on and the Roku has been working ever since. This was definitely in the twilight zone area since three family members and I had tried to get it to work previously.
I think it’s the internet service I have that is causing the tv to just go off without warning, slow charging of devices and other irritating issues. Or maybe it’s a secret recording tape by big brother listening in?? You never know😂

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized
“You’re not in Kansas anymore” with a crooked smile. He loved her reaction whenever he gave her that smile. He supported her through this new enterprise, even gave her start up money to complete her idea. Standing in the newly painted office space, a “come in” sign gleaming outside, it was still just the two of them. Her idea was a good one. “Maybe it’ll take a while to catch on”, he offered.

MLMM Saturday Mix

Welcome to the Saturday Mix – No Nonsense, 18 March 2023!
You will be given a nonsensical, made-up word. You will need to come up with your own definition and use it creatively and in context, in your response. It is your choice whether you write using poetry or prose. Your nonsense word this week is: “pitication”. Remember, define it; then use it!

***

The act of wanting to be pitied:

You are such a sorry sight

And I’ve tried with all my might

To ensure your happiness

But my dear you just digress

Into your own world, it’s a pity

You’re very charming, even witty

If you’d give only just one chance

And take a different hopeful stance

You’d be a happier girl I think

Step up and off that pitying brink

Try on a smile for a bit of cure

Certainly a better life it will ensure.

Rory’s Morning Dawdler

1. I love the outdoors but rarely get out much. 2. Sensation seeking? Is that a trick question?😂😂
3. Not really. I think we may want to think it’s luck but maybe it’s just good planning.

Thank you Rory and I followed you again with a different email, maybe it will work🙄

3TC Remembrance

by rugby843, posted in Uncategorized

Alas, I feel regret for the folly of this day

Along the path, where memories are slightly frayed

Thy beauty is now austere, as I find you there

Among the curly vines and blooms

Allot a memory, reminds of scented rooms

Where and when it was the “we”

Separated now with reality

The garden path now strewn with tears

As your name carved in stone appears.
