‘It’s called the insight, and not many people have it.’ Sarah didn’t expect it, not from her therapist, but she seemed to understand. When she told her of her dreams, in glorious technicolour, she wasn’t surprised. Sitting on her red couch, looking around an office full of cushions. Yellow, green, blue.

Fibbing Friday Fibs
This week from https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/author/pensitivity101/ has no theme at all and just a mish mash of silly questions inviting you to give sillier answers. 1. What is liquid gold?

Deer in Peril
For her prompt today, I hide as my mother taught me to do. https://crispinakemp.com/2022/06/22/crimsons-creative-challenge-189/ has posted the picture of a deer.

I don’tContinue reading “Deer in Peril”
The Old Girls Network
Today’s prompt from https://chellebcom2.wordpress.com/author/chellebee53/ is investigation. ‘Don’t you know that in any investigation you should listen to the little old lady and her theories?’ Detective Davidson said, looking down at the dead body.’ A little shocked, her colleague wasn’t sure what was meant by that, but he wasn’t about to get advice off a woman oldContinue reading “The Old Girls Network”
Fireworks

You Are Not Alone
Written for ”Word of the Day Challenge”. ‘No matter how bad things seem now, memories fade,’ her best friend, Sarah said.

Pageboy
‘I don’t want to be a page boy!’ James said. ‘Why not?’ his mum asked, as her little boy stuck his nose out of his book. ‘I don’t want to wear short trousers. My friend Mike, he was a pageboy and he had to wear shorts, a shirt and some silly bow tie. Someone tookContinue reading “Pageboy”

Web
Today, the word of the day from https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/author/embeecee/ is squeamish. ‘It can’t harm you its dead,’ Tom said. Sarah looked at the dead bird on her lawn, and knew he made sense, but even the thought of touching it made her want to be sick. Tom, sat on the sofa, didn’t get up when sheContinue reading “Web”
