thought I might write a poem with some magnetic poetry tiles, but then found out I’m not really in a poem-ing kind of mood.

it’s father’s day, but both mine and my husband’s dads are not with us any more. both my daughters did give their dad gifts, phone calls, and texts today and on friday, too.

the kids in the house behind ours are having fun jumping on their trampoline. to keep cool they have the sprinkler spraying on them as they jump.

i usually do a song on sunday for song lyric sunday, but i couldn’t find one i liked, so i skipped it today.

the other day my grand-daughter and i were doing the phone face-time, which we do a lot of times. i was having my coffee and eating a cookie and taking small bites in-between talking. we talked for about an hour and right at the end of the call i finished my one cookie. She was laughing so much about my ‘never-ending cookie’ which lasted the whole phone call.

my daughter, grand-daughter, and i went to visit my aunt the other day. it was nice to be out of the house again and seeing family after so long.

i still do the coloring books sometimes, but not so much recently. i should do more, as i do like it.

i’m still thinking about writing about all the different houses i’ve lived in. i tried to find some photos, but only came up with a couple, so i kinda got out of the mood. for now, but still want to.

my computer or rather WP has been acting strange the past few days. i guess it’s still doing it? i’ve been told by several different readers that when they click on my name it takes them to my admin page and not my blog page. i don’t know why, or how to fix it. i did chat with the WP helpers and they checked but couldn’t find anything wrong. … except there is!

i haven’t been capitalizing anything, just because i didn’t want to.

so … hope y’all have been having a fun weekend!

To the Left – Stream of Consciousness Saturday

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS May 8, 2021

***

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “to your left.” When you sit down to write your post, look to your left. What is the thing closest to you? Write about the memories that thing induces. Enjoy!

***

Well, the first think I thought of was remembering the cadence calls for the Army. These were used to help the troops march in time. Most times they were kind of funny. There are all kinds of them.

But, that’s not what’s on the left here. There are a lot of things to my left, but none are very interesting. There’s a box of tissues, a container of antibacterial hand wipes, a couple bottles of hand lotion, a couple bottles of perfume, and some assorted papers. Boring!

The prompt didn’t say how near or far to the left, though. Nearest would be my phone, which is on the computer desk. Farther left is the back door, which is open. I can see through the glass storm door that the wind is blowing very hard tossing the branches and leaves of the tree all around. It’s hot out 91 degrees F, and sunny.

So, that that for this time. Have a super weekend. 🙂
