Another appropriate word for the last two days. Triggering tempers, wars, indiscriminate, inappropriate, unwarranted actions by our president are occurring. For myself, this news triggers a reaction of disappointment, anger and hatred. And I woke up thinking I would have a new year, new attitude. So much for that 🙄😳🥺
First Lines Friday
Pile of Prompts
Once again our illustrious leader has chosen to act like a two year old- yes, downgraded from a three year old- chose not to think before twittering a threat to a middle eastern country and following up with a drone strike that will endanger all of our personnel currently serving our government in the region.
Maybe he thinks it’s the best way to get the impeachment trial off the public’s minds and onto something he’s really good at, trying to start a war. He needs to be reminded this is not his personal kingdom and keep his fingers off Twitter and remember he’s a president and start acting like one with the dignity the office should hold.

Fandango’s Friday Flashback
From January 3, 2017 The Secret Keeper – The Wrong Man
This is one of my favorite challenges:
Slowly opening his eyes, the lad realized it was daytime. The crack of light was not from the moon any longer but the warm sun. He needed that tiny sliver, as he huddled closer to it, trying to receive as much warmth as possible. It was a wonder he didn’t freeze to death the night before. In his small blurred vision he was able to make out some of his surroundings.
Joseph only remembered walking home with a bag full of holiday treats, hot bread, cheese, fruit and a bit of chocolate. Suddenly he was grabbed and thrown into a car, knocked unconscious and woke up blindfolded and hurting. Shoved into this new home of an old stable, he was again knocked out.
The warming sunlight was not enough to keep him from shivering. He needed a fire or heater. He pulled the…

Nay, the plea was not a neigh from a horse,
But from mischievous dogs above,
Left tied up alone in a small alcove

The wily two turned on the water
Causing water flow and flooding after
Now all around these neighbors two
Have the results of cleanup to do.

My resolution was to read more so I put the subtitles on my tv.
To kick start my New Year: I took an IQ test and the results were negative.
