Blog City image small "Prompt: Write an entry describing your perfect dream life."

My perfect dream life is pretty much the life I have been living. It is a life of grace, love, mercy. and all other blessings found in Jesus Christ. It is a life of community and one of service. If I am not doing something to physically serve others then I am writing something or instructing in some way that will help. I believe service is the definition of love. It is love in action.

The Original Logo. Prompt: "Write about an object you own that has negligible monetary value, but is priceless to you."

I had to ponder on this one for a moment or two, but then I came up with the perfect answer. I have a bamboo rod over here with a little hand at the end of it that I use for a back scratcher. I wouldn't take anything for it. It has no real monetary value. You can pick them up in a lot of novelty shops, but I have found mine to be priceless. I have a bad thyroid, which results in my getting patches of dry skin. Sometimes that dry skin is on my back and it drives me insane. I use to step outside and rub my back on the corner of the building because the bricks of the building have a flat edge. Then one of the guys here gave me the backscratcher I have because he had two in his room. It has been one of the best gifts I ever received. It's just a stick cut out of bamboo with a hand on the end. The total monetary value is probably $1.00 or less, but to me it is priceless. If it falls behind my nightstand or under my bed I go into panic mode thinking somebody took it. Of course, nobody took it. I simply misplaced it. I go bonkers without it though.

Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs Prompt: "Use humdrum, ample, enchanting,cooperate and platform in your entry today. Have fun!"

There is usually nothing humdrum about my day.It starts at 0450 seven days per week for morning role call. Then I may or may not lay back down for a while. A lot of times I will get up and journal for a little bit. Yesterday I wrote ten pages in my journal. Today I may write ten more or I may not write another for a week. After that I start my blog, which some of you may or may not find humdrum. I give myself ample time to write it because I only type with two or three fingers. I type very slowly. I took two typing classes in college but never did figure out how to get my speed up very much. I find typing and writing enchanting though and spend a lot of time doing so. If I could get my fingers to cooperate I'd be a lot faster than I am. I also think I need a better desk than I have. I use a mess hall table for a writing platform and it doesn't do my arms and wrists much good, especially with a straight chair.
