Written for http://earthlycomforts.uk/2023/04/15/the-garden-dawdler-4/ Are you utterly minimalistic in your lifestyle, an absolute clutterer hoarder, or just messy? I am not any good in throwing things away, neither is my husband. If it belonged to someone else, it holds a great deal of sentiment. Do you prefer to sit on a chair, cushion, bench, floor orContinue reading “Sentiment”

Book Review – Dead Embers
Another book, from my second hand haul from Tesco. A charity bookcase, where avid readers can swap books, while giving money for charity. I would love to buy new books, but sometimes the forgotten reads can be just as good. Dead Embers starts with the homicide of two detectives (husband and wife). Their three yearContinue reading “Book Review – Dead Embers”
Best Friends
Written for https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2023/04/13/reenas-xploration-challenge-276/ ‘I’m stuck, what do I write next B Bot?’ ‘I am not sure I understand the question.’ B Bot sat on the floor, next to his friend Stephen, his computer cells whirring. He would never understand a human. Writing, wasn’t that copying what you had read before. He read many things, couldContinue reading “Best Friends”
Easter
Written in response https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2023/04/11/truthful-tuesday-11th-april/ and their question, do I think Easter is a commercialised as Christmas. Yes, it has always been commercial though, even when I was a girl, I looked forward to the Easter Eggs, more than I did the reason behind the celebration. I was brought up in a Christian home, went toContinue reading “Easter”
Bucket and Cloth
This week from https://girlieontheedge1.wordpress.com/2023/04/09/sundays-six-sentence-story-word-prompt-257/ Toby had many jobs over the years. When he was in university he worked as a valet, although that wasn’t quite his role. More like he stood at the kerbside with a bucket and a cloth, asking if they wanted their window screens washed. It wasn’t the greatest job. Although heContinue reading “Bucket and Cloth”

Easter
Written in response to https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2023/04/10/share-your-world-easter-monday-2023/ 1. Do you celebrate the Easter holiday and if not, do you have an alternative? I I don’t go to church, but I consider myself a Christian though. 2. Do you exchange gifts or have a traditional meal? Normally I would spend some of the holidays with my family. ThisContinue reading “Easter”
Alone
Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ The woodland was her solace. Nobody ventured into these parts, she could take time out social media, her bullies taunting her. She never took her phone. It was her mission to be alone, think about what she could do next. Her yellow hoodie, pulled over her face, she leant against the tree.Continue reading “Alone”
Original?
Written in response to https://earthlycomforts.uk/ Do you try more to be original or to deliver to readers what they want? My blog isn’t all that original. When I write it is either for a word prompt, or sometimes a book review. Do you recover well from setbacks to your plans? I brush myself down, andContinue reading “Original?”
Rule Breaker
This week’s prompt https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ I’m not sure how to answer this question, as I am not a big rule breaker in general. Even during Covid, I stuck to the rules, didn’t meet up with my daughter, even though she wasn’t far away. The rule was there to keep my family safe, so I wasn’t goingContinue reading “Rule Breaker”
