Ouch – That Hurt
The week’s question from https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2022/10/18/can-see-no-truthful-tuesday-so-am-stepping-in-for-melanie/ and it is definitely one for me. Today, hubby and I went for our annual flu jab. I work in an environment where I am more likely to have flu, and my husband is getting to an age where he needs all the help he can get. I’m not muchContinue reading “Ouch – That Hurt”
At Your Disposal
How do you intend to dispose of your physical body after you die? Would you consider a green burial if it were legal where you live? is a question from https://fivedotoh.com/2022/10/19/fandangos-provocative-question-186/. My answer is I’m not sure.

Buyer Beware
Written in response to https://girlieontheedge1.wordpress.com/2022/10/16/sundays-six-sentence-story-prompt-word/ ‘This fantastic period piece, a landmark structure is well sought after,’ the estate agent said, as she showed another couple around. ‘It is a doer upper, but I can see that you are both keen to show what promise this beautiful abode can be.’ There was no cooker in theContinue reading “Buyer Beware”
Comfort Food
The word soup from https://weeklyprompts.com/2022/10/19/weekly-prompts-wednesday-challenge-soup/ and it the perfect word for winter. I love a good soup. Whether it be the homemade kind or the type you buy in a tin. My daughter makes the best tomato soup (Slimming world style) and you can’t tell the difference between that and tinned. The only difference isContinue reading “Comfort Food”

Health or Money?
For https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ Health is something more important than money, but it is best we have a bit of both. You can have all the money, but you cannot take it with you when we die. I do think those with enough in their banks could be able to take some of the strain of thoseContinue reading “Health or Money?”
Windfall
For today’s word prompt from https://fivedotoh.com/2022/10/17/fowc-with-fandango-ignore/. The letter, on the floor, and Lana knew better, ignorance would only delay the torture. One of those brown, quiet envelopes, but inside somethings she didn’t want to see. Was it a gas or electric bill, she wasn’t sure, but there wasn’t enough in her bank to cover anythingContinue reading “Windfall”
Dawn of a New Day
A picture prompt from https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/what-do-you-see/ this week. I stand at the tip of the ocean, my arms wide, to welcome the sea breeze back to shore. There is something comforting about freshness of the air, as it hits my sleeveless arms. Spring, surpasses winter, and each cold morning is now starting to thaw. This moment,Continue reading “Dawn of a New Day”
