The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

ReplyDeleteJoanne; :-) :-)
DeleteOpen mouth, change feet.
ReplyDeleteGrace; that's exactly right :)
DeleteI'm still reading your posts and loving the pictures of Frankie and BB.
That's why I like writing things instead of saying them; it gives me a chance to recognize those landmines :)
ReplyDeletejenny_o; me too, I always read things several times before I click on publish and even then an occasional blooper gets through.
DeleteWe must all have been guilty of that at some time.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; I've been guilty so many times, it's why I mostly keep my mouth shut these days.
DeleteGuilty here too.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; nice to know I'm not the only one :)
DeleteAin't that the truth.
ReplyDeleteonly slightly confused; one of the most truthful truths out there.
DeleteThe bad thing is most times you know immediately when you have said it, but just can't drag the words back.
ReplyDeleteJimmy; another truth. Even a thousand immediate "sorrys" usually won't fix that.
DeleteI've always got a needle and thread close by because I'm often biting my tongue! :)
ReplyDeleteLee; I've given up and just keep my mouth shut. People see me as uncaring, but that's okay, I care on the inside.
DeleteBeen there!
ReplyDeletejoeh; too many times to count right? :)
DeleteShortly after starting a new teaching job, I greeted my superintendent when we crossed paths in the parking lot one blustery morning.
ReplyDelete"Whew! That wind could blow the hair right off your head!"
He smiled and nodded.
I mentioned my cleverness to my 11th grade biology students first hour. They cut eyes at each other. One of them said, "You know he wears a piece, right?"
Well. I did THEN.
Va; that's very funny, would have been even funnier if his hair blew off just as he said it. Maybe not funny for him though.
Delete"you said" not "he said"
Delete...nice reminder River....
ReplyDeleteI have a mouth that runs away with me at times ...

Barbara; I'm going to have this printed on a coffee mug for someone I know who speaks without thinking more often than I do.
DeleteI'm not going to say a word!!
ReplyDeletefishducky; a very wise decision :)
DeleteYeahhh... I figure it out after about a day or so and several angry comments... :)
ReplyDeleteWhew! That wind could blow the hair right off your head!
