My Friday prompt from Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “zip, zero, zilch.” Use one, use ’em all, bonus points if you use all three. Have fun! Zip, zero, zilch, the amount in my bank account was clear, I needed to find a job and soon. Resorting to food banks to feed my family, the rent wasContinue reading “Zip, Zero, Zilch”

A New Experience
”Sushi, that’s raw fish, isn’t it?” Alan said, poking the food with his chopsticks. Elizabeth smiled, taking her dad to the Japanese restaurant seemed a good idea a month ago. A chance to try new things, but one look in his direction told her all she needed to know. ”Look try one, and I’ll tryContinue reading “A New Experience”
A Comfy Night In
A warm drink, a packet of chocolate biscuits, and watching re-runs of Miss Marple was Barbara’s idea of heaven. She didn’t want nights out partying, with the local riff-raff. Alcohol didn’t bother her, neither did the dancing. Friends were forever trying to get her to meet someone, but she had no need of love. TheContinue reading “A Comfy Night In”
Fizzy
Fizzy My brain in so fizzy, there’s all these little bubbles inside, popping and bursting, there’s nowhere I can hide. My brain is all fizzy, there’s all these explosions inside, booming and stomping, trying to permanently reside. My brain is all fizzy, there’s all these muddles inside, twisting and turning, a tangle of worry collides.Continue reading “Fizzy”

Sink or Swim
This week’s throwback Thursday post from https://lssattitudeofgratitude.wordpress.com/author/lssattitudeofgratitude/ is about learning to swim. When I was about five, I got pushed in the swimming pool by two boys. I couldn’t swim. Luckily, I was pulled out of the pool, but learning to swim frightened me after that. I didn’t like swallowing the water, or not beingContinue reading “Sink or Swim”
Pristine
The word from https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/author/cyranny/ is pristine. Pushing the hoover across her carpet, Masie felt like Filch in the last film of Harry Potter. No matter the amount of cleaning would get rid the aroma of her Rottweiler Trevor. It would never be pristine. Normally it didn’t matter to her. Young children made a mess, itContinue reading “Pristine”
One Liner Wednesday
Many hours in one day, but you can never go back, only forward.
Tragedy
Tragedy struck again. Maurine was about to go out with the dog, when she saw the poor little bird. A robin this time, next doors cat was going on a murder spree. Taking the tiny creature, she gently picked it up before he did. Putting her dog into a sit, she cradled it in herContinue reading “Tragedy”
Glasses
Where had I put my glasses? More forgetful than normal, this was the seventh time I lost them this week. Yesterday, I left them in the fridge. I’m not even sure why, but I went to get some milk, there they were sitting in the middle rail, chilling. I’m not sure why they were there,Continue reading “Glasses”
