Drifting through life

  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 ME and can be found right here This week's words/prompts are:  1. tinkering 2. vagabond 3. dreamed 4. sometimes 5. running 6. choose 7. Sunday Also including Charlotte's colour of the month: Olive Green Here is my very short story: “Joel! Joel, stop tinkering and get out from under that truck!” “What is it Grandma?’ said Joel. “It’s Sunday and we are running late. Just look at you in those rags, you look like a vagabond ! You need to get changed for Church.” “We won’t be late if you let me f...

 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. Elephant's Child is still taking a break. Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. I have only one calendar this year and I have been forgetting to show you the pictures so let's begin with : January February and March this is how much a cheeseburger costs in Australia, how much is a cheeseburger where you live?  Ant Party at Iris's holiday cabin this summer (she had an infestation twice!) enlarging the picture will help. there have been some pretty skies here latel...

Tom stood poised near the edge of the cliff, camera in hand, gazing down at the beach area. From this height, even with the tide in, he could clearly see the ring of jagged rocks that gave the small town its name, Shark Cove. He focused his ...

Beginning with the lamp I bought to replace the butterfly one: it arrived in a large cardboard box, a bit heavier than I was expecting, oof! I was clever enough to order the globes at the same time it only took a few minutes to put together. I will still be searching for a new, bigger, base for the butterfly shade though.  this is the label inside one of my t-shirts, "Not dishwash...
