Snow makes it humid
But wind keeps it dry
I would import some sunshine
Export clouds where they lie
Stiff breeze makes you shiver with cold
But warm bright sun never gets old.

Happy News
Windy day stirs my idle mind
But there is no guile I find.
When a joyful text arrives
And a present to make me smile
I’m verklempt to read and see
A granddaughter is visiting me.
She’s bringing cookies
And her quilting stuff
I can’t be happy enough!

It’s always a great day when family visits.❤️💚

It’s bad enough to receive ads on and with emails, but on every posted blog I follow in email, I get these ads from WordPress on the top. This is beyond irritating. I would follow people in the Reader only, but the Reader is never up to date and then only half the people I follow ever appear in the Reader! Below is an example.
Ridiculous!
This is just one from this morning, and I’m only showing Sadje’s as an example. It’s on everyone’s.
WordPress is getting more irritating every day.

SoCS – 12-19-20 – Magnet
Magnets may attract, but it’s not a long lasting solution. The attraction of opposites wears thin as time goes by and it seeks a fresh new connection.

Every last cent Joe owned laid there on the green felt for all to see. He had to do it. There was no choice to bet it all. . . all $10.00. It may not sound like much to the seasoned gambler, but to Joe, it was another chance. The minimum wager was ten dollars and if it had not been for his plea to a stranger on the street outside the casino, he wouldn’t even had that much to bet.
Joe spent his life as a wanderer after losing most of his fortune in gambling over the years. It seemed like kismet when he started fifteen years ago, winning everything in the games of chance. He thought it was his fate, his luck that made his success. People would gather around him at the tables, hoping some of his magic would rub off on them.
As the story goes, Joe found his true love there, standing beside him–love at first sight he used to think. But as time passed, she grew weary of his addiction and finally left, and now his circumstances consisted of life on the street. Joe had plenty of company there on the sidewalks and doorways, all suffering from similar addictions.
Joe laid down the ten dollar bill as the crowd backed away from him, seeing his streetwear appearance. His unshaven face still showed the excited apprehension of a gambler. The dice rolled, and landed on snake eyes. Joe stumbled out of the casino lights back to the street where he waited for another generous soul to give him money.

Three Line Tales 12-18-20

Fourteen years old, looking at the rest of her life–a blank canvas only she can imagine.
Paint it with soft subtle hues and bold bright colors, because both are needed in life.
What a blessing to have so much ahead of her, and the chances to make beautiful memories.

I was inspired by my granddaughter who was filling out a form for high school basketball. It asked what her grades were, favorite classes, her goals after HS and college, and I, as usual, am in awe of her.♥️

MLMM Tale Weaver – Badges

A certain friend, adroit in compassion, referred to scars from life as badges. Certainly life brings hard choices, difficult decisions, and some leave scars, either visible or not. It may be hard to look at them, but remember, it happened, and you survived.
