Truthful Tuesday – Working at Home

Working from home – that’s the dream. In 2020, during COVID, I worked from home for a few months. Not unusual, and for many has become a normal way of working.

Five Little Things

The question was asked by https://saltedcaramel670.wordpress.com/tag/saltedcaramel/ what five things irritate you. I hate it when people are rude, and don’t consider other feelings.

I wanted to escape, but I wasContinue reading “Snakes, Fears, and a New Pet”

She wasn’t your typical clairvoyant. “Sit down, I’ll be there in a minute.” I couldn’t stop looking at her bright blue hair, and wondered whether she had the qualifications to speak to the departed. I only wanted to know one thing, but I wasn’t even sure she would know what that was. “My name’s Sarah,Continue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2022/01/29/fowc-with-fandango-clairvoyant/”

“I insist you take a holiday, Miss Thompson. You have worked at this firm for three years and the last few years have been tough for you.” Susan didn’t want to take a holiday, being busy kept her worries from consuming her at night.
