Such a great use of the words! So sorry you have to go through with all that with the aftermath of the operation. I hope and pray to heal perfectly and very soon.
I so like people who can sing! I sound like a crow to myself when I try. Great that you're going out into the nature. I wish though, the concussion had not happened. So sorry you had to go through all that. I sometimes miss my words, too, and I didn't have a concussion. I'm just aging. Luckily when I write, we have Google and an online thesaurus.
When I was a teenager I read Shirley MacLaine’s book You Can Get There From Here, in which she devotes a section to time she spent in Bhutan. It fascinated me.
While I respect & admire the aspects of Buddhism I know of, I’d be a bad Buddhist. I like earthly human stuff too much 😊
Wow, you could easily sell your house and travel for the rest of your life.
Kind of like me, I live in Los Vegas but we live in the southwest part of the city about 35 minutes with traffic from the strip where all the casinos are located. It's like a whole other planet. We go four times a year to see the botanical gardens at the Bellagio Hotel and that's it.
Vegas has been cooler the last several winters and had more rain than usual.
Hi, zLyn, thankyou. I’d forgotten I’d written this story until you took the tour to Coober Pedy. What a strange place. Thank you, I hope everyone enjoyed it there and at least found an Opal to take home.
Write about something awkward or embarrassing that happened in public - it can be something that happened to you, or something you witnessed happen to somebody else. How did they react?
My son in law is famous for putting his foot in it, so to speak. A young woman who he’d not seen for ages was at a gathering he was also attending. He approached to say hello and ask her how she’d been. “I’ve not seen you for so long,” he said. “ I see congratulations are in order, when’s the baby due?” She just said. “ I’m not pregnant.”
He just apologised and slunk off.
Falling over in public has been the most embarrassing thing I’ve had to endure. I quickly stood up reassuring everyone I’m fine, putting on a smile, whilst all the time thinking ‘that bloody hurts!”
What was it that stopped me sitting in the middle of the street and having a good cry?
