Words for Wednesday participants: a message

 Our host, Elephant's Child, (Sue) has passed away suddenly and I am not sure if all of you will wish to continue the Words for Wednesday meme.

Those of you who participated by leaving words at her site may choose to leave them here instead, at least until the end of this year. Please let me know. 

I don't have email addresses for all participants. 

Those of you who put the words on your own site can choose to continue, or not, it is up to you. Please let me know. 

This year has only three months left and I would like to know if any or all would like to keep this meme going in 2026.


I am hoping Sunday Selections will continue, but again, the choice is up to those who participate. I know that I will keep going.

**It's possible Sue already has (had) the Wednesday words and has them scheduled to post on the day, so we shall wait and see **

    I think Sue (Elephant's Child) had the rest of the year scheduled, there was a post at her blog - https://myjustsostory.blogspot.com/2024/12/where-are-words-for-wednesday-and.html.

    I would definitely like to continue Words for Wed and would host it and provide the prompts for a month or two. I enjoy the challenge and I hope others would also continue to participate or contribute. But it does seems a bit odd without Sue.

    Have a lovely day.

    I would be glad to continue, although I will miss Sue terribly. If she has posts ready through the end of the year, I will use those words. If not, it would be a joy to have Lissa, or anyone who has been using the words a while, continue the prompt. It was started by Delores several years ago, and when Delores had to stop hosting, Sue took over. Passing on the baton would honor those who've kept it going so long.

    Yes, if we continue with a new host, I would be glad to do a month, Sue usually gave me August, which would be fine, or any other month if needed.

    Agreeing with Messymimi, it would be in Elephant's Child's spirit to carry on with the challenge. I'm sure that the three having prepared the prompts for October (Sean Jeating), November (Alex J. Cavanaugh) and December (WiseWebWoman) would happily send their prompts to Lilla for publishing if Elephant's Child have not already presceduled those posts. We'll know in a few days.
    I too would continue supplying prompts for a month or two.

    Elephant's Child is the reason I ever made it this far with my tales about Susan, and if I ever get to publish them, she'll be having a honourable mentioning in the book!

Sunday Selections #757

 Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one.  Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Beginning today with a few photos of my TV screen, on the news: In the far north, the APY Lands (I think, it was a while ago) the indigenous people held their own Grand Final football match: in the heat and the red dust much fun was had spectators as well as players it was lovely to see, quite a change from the city matches with over-crowded stands and all the cheering and booing that goes on. on another TV show: she really killed...

Brother R came to visit and brought me some old paperwork belonging to my dad, who has been dead for 25 and a half years now.  They'd been stored in a container with moth balls and were quite stinky so I pegged them out on the clothes rack in the back porch three days later, most are now inside, but the heavier items such as dad's passports are still smelly so they are still out there. I now have the original copy of his natu...
