The Bag Lady

a single beauty

always should be notable

a present, wafting

Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Notable – December 2, 2021

I just made the third call in a week to my electric/gas provider, switching cut off and turn on dates and times. 🙄 I must say they do not put you on hold, the people who answer the phone are extremely polite, and helpful.

What an unusual occurrence these days—helpful, polite, respectful; plus the bonus of no annoying hold music that was composed by a computer—must have been written by a computer🧐🥸

As of 5pm today, I am staying in my current apartment till December 30th, boxes and all. Well, at least so far as of 5:15pm, it’s the plan. The upside is everyone is back to work, no longer sick and our family Thanksgiving dinner is planned for Saturday.

I think Murphy might be behind all this? Whatever, I’m trying to chill like Joe cool😬

Sorry I am not active here the past few days. I am in a turmoil with move, can’t move yet, what am I going to do now that everything is packed and I can’t move dilemma. My daughter is a life saver—don’t know what I would do without her—yes I do…go on. We all go on no matter what, don’t we? And it’s not like this is a horrible tragedy, it’s just mind numbing inconvenience. This whole experience reminds me of an old proverb:

Or the Army—“hurry up and wait”

Have a good one!🤓

Billy Crystal stars with Tiffany Haddish in “Here Today”, a bittersweet comedy. I don’t care for the trailer, the movie is much better than that. This is the scene when they meet.

The truth is, a morning running free on a hayfield was an engine starting my shiny day. My father and uncle never sat around reading the papers on a Sunday morn. I was witness to their tireless ability to hold a day job while striving to work a farm. As a child I never wondered why they chose to pay the price, but it was the life, in those days, to split their time between two needed endeavors. I was always just happy riding on their wings, living an interesting adventure.

Same Same But Different
Your ‘Same Same But Different’ task is to take the five challenge words and NOT use them in your writing. That’s right, you need to dig out your thesaurus and find a synonym for each word instead.

Your words are:

1. die
2. wrinkle
3. hurry
4. day
5. hear

Your writing form is either poetry or prose.

We wait for all the fails

The era of the rumple

They speed across your body

As seen in morning vails

Eyesight dims, reading woes

You strain trying to listen

Aging comes in many forms

The fading bloom of a rose.

Dennis the Menace used this phrase when conversing with his neighbor Mr. Wilson.

“Dennis considers “Good Ol’ Mr. Wilson” to be his best friend but… This sitcom defines the “golly gee” wholesomeness of 1950s”
