https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/ Every week, hour, second and Stacey was no closer to getting a job. Bills crash to her welcome mat. She is surviving on unsubstantiated, sugar filled meals. There is no question, she won’t be able to pay my bills, let alone her rent. She scrapes mould of her bread, and puts it in theContinue reading “Three Challenges in One”

#FOWC and #Firstlinefriday
“Whatever you do, you can’t do that.” I am assisting with the surgery today, and I am looking forward to learning off the best. ”Can’t do what?’ I ask.” ”Be afraid for the patient,’ he says, as I hand him the scalpel. ”What if I make a mistake?” ”If you care too much, then mistakesContinue reading “#FOWC and #Firstlinefriday”
School Days
Not a story today, but a memory for the word regurgitate. An old Geography teacher, and I cannot remember is name (well it is nearly forty years ago) We called him the Jolly Green Giant because he had to duck when walking through doors. His favourite saying when we had a test was I wantContinue reading “School Days”

Remnants of my son’s lego were littered on the floor like little land mines. I stared down at the kaleidoscope of colours, and side stepped all the way around them. I was so pleased at myself that I nearly missed the row of cars in the middle of the room. Each car, placed neatly beforeContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/10/19/fowc-with-fandango-remnant/”
Monday Prompts – #FOWC #RDPMONDAY and https://judydykstrabrown.com/
approach, looking, street, breath, strange. with hypnotic and scorch I approach the scorching void, looking all around me, but all I hear is her words drawing me in.

It is strange, but the streetContinue reading “Monday Prompts – #FOWC #RDPMONDAY and https://judydykstrabrown.com/”
Word Prompt – Repugnant
The aroma from the alley way is repugnant to most people, but I’m used to its sweet, sickly smell. I have worked as a detective for more years than my breakfasts going cold. I always grab something on the go anyways. A doughnut normally. ‘So what have we got here?’ I ask my colleague. ‘Male,Continue reading “Word Prompt – Repugnant”

In past years the humble table has been the heart of the family home. Television programmes set the most important decisions around it. My memories are pretty much the same.

Christmas dinners where we laughed at ancient jokes in theContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/10/15/fowc-with-fandango-table/”
Halloween – Wendy Witch and the Halloween Party
Last year, for my birthday she brought me a unique piano, and lessons to go with it. She always gives such great gifts. Personalised, this was haunted by Ludwig Van Beethoven, and every time I play it is like he is there with me. Upstairs in my office, I think of what I can doContinue reading “Halloween – Wendy Witch and the Halloween Party”

Piling the dirty clothes into separate sections (whites, cotton and wool) Rachel sits in front of her new machine. It has so many buttons and dials. Why did change bother her so much? But, her old washing machine was perfect, and she didn’t want to lose an old friend. It is important to have aContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/10/12/fowc-with-fandango-dirty/”
