The Power of Three
My hope was that I posted a picture a day for October, but as ever life got in the way. On Tuesday I went to my Slimming world meeting and didn’t get home until eight o’clock. By the time we had dinner it was nearly nine. I did one post, but my eyes were droopingContinue reading “The Power of Three”
Out of Hours
This week’s question from https://sparksfromacombustiblemind.wordpress.com/2022/10/11/truthful-tuesday-10-11-2022/ is about her pet peeve, being compelled to answer the phone or door. How polite do you find it to ignore the doorbell and/or the phone, especially if you’ve just begun to eat dinner or want to just veg out all by your lonesome? Why do we feel obligated toContinue reading “Out of Hours”
The Way Home
This week https://fivedotoh.com/2022/10/10/fandangos-flash-fiction-challenge-188/ Standing at the brink of success or failure, Tom stopped in the middle of the clearing. The autumn leaves littered the ground, in a crazy paving of colour. He loved being here, never felt like he was alone. Amongst the constant chatter of the birds, speaking to each other, he felt aContinue reading “The Way Home”
Blindsided
https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/what-do-you-see/ and this is my interpretation of their prompt. Walking through the darkness, and the couple in front of me are mere shadows against the fog. It is like someone has taken a paintbrush and is slowly erasing the light. In two months, I won’t be able to see anything. There may be some light,Continue reading “Blindsided”
Pumpkins – October 9
Today’s picture is of some pumpkins I knitted a few years ago. When my granddaughter was born nearly three years ago, I decided I should start knitting. I since found out the only things I can knit well are blankets. I first knitted Christmas decorations, as at the time my dog tended to eat anything,Continue reading “Pumpkins – October 9”

Hours ago, or it seems like hours, you went into that funny little room I’m not allowed in. You take in a book, shut the door, and I wait outside for you to return. I don’t even know if you are going to return My headContinue reading “Alone”
October 8th – Rainy Day
October 8th and my picture today is actually from yesterday. I took the picture, while my husband was driving to shopping. We get a lot of rain in the UK. Even with our two-week drought in the summer, even the mention of that word and it rained the next day. There is something comforting aboutContinue reading “October 8th – Rainy Day”

In The Dark
Today’s word from https://fivedotoh.com/2022/10/08/fowc-with-fandango-twitch/ A twitch of his shoulders. I decide there and then what I needed to do. A person, who I once trusted with my life, is out to kill me, to get rid of any evidence in his involvement in drugs – in Joe’s death. He may not have given him theContinue reading “In The Dark”
