I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you'll be able to reconnect to your home and memories through the movie.

I think that as with any kind of writing, responding to a prompt can sometimes spark nothing... but for me, if I just start writing something, anything, an idea will come.

Sometimes I have to really think hard and if nothing comes just admit it and move on to the next one.

I like these 3 prompts too.

These are good prompts. I've been around the 30-Day for awhile so some were familiar. Now I'm trying to learn to spin them in a new way or make the old news work better.

Get in the Car We're Going

PROMPT March 14th

What is your favorite childhood memory? Does anything make you feel nostalgic?

Favorite childhood memories. Such a simple question, but such a tall order to fill. I really can't say that I have only one favorite memory. I have lots and lots and lots. And they all center around my family. We were always very close and tight knit, and because there were so many of us every day seemed like an adventure. And the simple fact that my Dad was in the Air Force meant that we were constantly traveling and making memories in all kinds of places all around the world.

We spent time camping, fishing and hiking. We visited as many museums as we could. We enjoyed every park we could find. We toured history through various cemeteries. We went to carnivals and festivals and amusement parks. We went to the movies. We did everything together. And surprisingly, we never got tired of each other.

But now that I'm feeling nostalgic for all the good times...and the bad...I think I can confidently say that I do, indeed, have a favorite memory. My Dad was known to suddenly shout, "Get in the car! We're going!" And we'd all pile in the car, excited for a new adventure. Didn't matter what time of day, morning or night, or even temperature, hot or cold. We'd drop everything and scramble to the car because we knew something fun was about to happen. So I guess that's my favorite memory - "Get in the car! We're going!"
