Martha looked down to her lap and then back to Helen. ‘Yes, she’s my daughter. I didn’t understand why she was so angry with Thomas. Chris helped me to see it from her point of view.

For Throwback Thursday
Did you, or did you collect every piece of art your children/grandchildren ever made?

Every now and then I willContinue reading “For Throwback Thursday”
Nearly a dog’s dinner
Hesitation, that was my downfall, that and a cat named Billy. I was so close to taking haul from the kitchen counter, when she meowed so loud that it brought my owner from the front room, where they were unwrapping their Christmas gifts and into the kitchen. Caught paw handed. If I hadn’t jumped whenContinue reading “Nearly a dog’s dinner”
A Letter from Santa
A letter from Santa Dear Children, For Christmas this year I would like something different to mince pies. I have been on a diet this year. Mrs Clause says she can’t take in my suit any more.

Bullying – It is Never Okay!

A word prompt from https://ebarmorals.wordpress.com/tag/writing-prompts/ and my favourite place using my senses. My favourite place isn’t a place but where I am among friends and family. A place I can be myself and laugh alongside them. It is the sound of my granddaughter giggling when she throws a ball to her dog. It is theContinue reading “https://ebarmorals.wordpress.com/tag/writing-prompts/”

Strange, but neither is calling me – I’ll have the drink instead.

Robert realized that she had made a fool of him when he opened the drawer and found her passport. Well that wasn’t quite true – until he turned the page that is. He smiled at the photograph at first. In all their thirty year marriage, Sarah never did like her picture being taken. Eyes wideContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/12/07/fandangos-story-starter-23/”

For Truthful Tuesday’s ”Do you like me” I would have to say to get likes for my posts is good, but seeing the comments let me know whether my content is worth reading or not. I post snippets of my book, and take part in many word prompts. The problem is I’m not giving enoughContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/12/07/truthful-tuesday-do-you-like-me/”
It’s a Man’s World
I hid in plain sight behind the stone structures. I knew they wouldn’t allow me to take part in the Olympic games. No female had ever stepped foot inside these walls. From an early age I wanted to be an Olympian. I watched my father battle against his peers in the discus throwing event. IContinue reading “It’s a Man’s World”
