Fridays have been busy for me, so I'm cheating.
But I will add any Thursday night nominations ... quicker to edit than to compose the whole post....
I should hold off on posting but I didn't know if I'd even get to the computer today. Or have internet.
You can see that I added @fitinfun's nominations, but didn't take time to hyperlink/center/etc.
@carolkean Well I decided not tplo join and deleted my two recommendations. Next time I will try to be in time. Somehow it is a lost of days if we write on Tuesdsy and people read the post on Fridays.
Happy weekend ❤️
Ohhh no, you didn't need to delete your recommendations!!
I'm so sorry. I had to leave town for a four-day weekend. Friday morning we were packing, hitting the road, getting our son from an airport four hours away... wedding Saturday... returned home tonight. I did squeeze in some last minute changes Friday morning and I would have added yours. You're right, it does feel like a lot of advance notice, rounding up favorites, waiting for the Friday post, making sure we nominate only a RECENT post, and one written in response to a 5-minute freewrite - sometimes I see #freewrite and mistakenly nominate a post that wasn't in response to a prompt. But I've never been a stickler for such details. Rules are made to be broken, not enforced-- good thing I never used my degree in teaching English- I'd have been fired the first week.
Perhaps you would be fired or the best and most creative teacher ever.
Hope you had a great wedding. Sounds all together to a lot of stress.
Stress it is here today too since 5:20 am. Will go for a walk now and in a few hours I am in bed. My day is over. Not much done. Pity but it is as it is.
Happy, peaceful day with love 💕 for you.
"My day is over. Not much done."
But you posted this lovely comment: Perhaps you would be fired....or the best and most creative teacher ever.
Thank you so much for that! If nothing else you said or did seemed like enough to you, THAT was more than enough for me. Your kind words are far-reaching, even if your walking no longer is!
Am I incoherent.... yes.
I love weddings and family gatherings but always come away from them demoralized or discouraged, because I am "that crazy aunt" nobody wants to have around, because I never shut up, I go on about history, science, books, movies, and eyes glaze over, and I know I should GIVE UP the conceit that my opinions are of interest to anyone but me, but I am a WRITER.... @myjob, as I recall, you and I were discussing this recently. Even you get flak for your opinions, but writers write, and opine, and wax eloquent (or so we think), and have this unkillable urge to share our insights, ideas, dare I say "knowledge," with others....
I am sure no matter what you (or they) think now they appreciate you.😃 Perhaps you are at that moment not the jolly drunk but you are the storyteller, the one with an opinion, someone who has a message and that is what people will remember.
Sorry to hear you come away from family gatherings demoralized or discouraged. ☹.
I guess the real family is in another time (stuck).
Do not give up on sharing whatever you need or feel or want to share. It is what writers do, how you are and stick to yourself.
My only family are my children. I guess I am lucky they like my stories, have my humour and say that if I talk you better listen because it is important. 😁👍
A big hug and love for you 💕 and you too @myjob 💕
