I hope that everyone’s day is as beautiful as the one we’re experiencing here in southern Virginia! I’m wishing every day could be like this one.
The dogwoods are blooming out back, their white-flowered branches gently swaying over top the little white bells and purple irises. We’ve opened the windows to let the breezes blow through the house.
To everyone who contributed a sentence this week: Thanks!
I enjoyed hosting and look forward to getting back into the swing of contributing myself in the future. :)
Larry starts us off this week with a downside of the changing seasons:
“Hot and cold — both inside and outside classroom.”
Barb channels her inner alliteration in a similar theme:
“Spring has sprung forth pollens, rain, & sluggish spirits with its up & down temps.”
Mary reminded me that — although her breed of silence is so tempting — I should embrace the fleeting, never-silent phase of life I’m in now.
“This week my vacation included late mornings with hot coffee, the garden to renew, my mind to rewind and the silence to enjoy, a glass or two of wine and sleep; what joy.”
The ever-poetic Ken ponders an un-twittered twittering wit:
“What wit would twitter
a single tweet of note and
get no twitter back?”
Kevin is looking for some advice on where to put his stuff while his stuff-holder is gone:
“The question we ponder this week: Our garage is soon to be knocked down (and rebuilt) but where do we put all of our stuff?”
Bonnie, whose new photo site is a treat, sends in her sentence from abroad to make us all feel a wee-bit green:
“A week in Israel in the middle of April. Spring in sandals! Lots of pics on my FB page. Twitter, BOO!”
Anne writes about her recent virtual experiences and simultaneously expands our vocabulary:
“With little virtual world experience, I attended the netgened awards in reactiongrid using opensim and enjoyed the adventure with students.”
And finally, my own sentence details my family’s final destination yesterday evening:
“Took kids to Open Mic last night & played music while 4-yr-old stage-dived & break-danced & 15-yr-old & 2-yr-old tore up cookies & chips.
