Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life |
HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions"  , "The Soundtrack of Your Life" , "Blogging Circle of Friends " , "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" and, well, LIFE.    |
6 November 2021  Prompt: You work alone from home, logged on to your work PC. One day you log on, and start your routine. You look at the clock on your desktop and eight hours have passed, but you have no memory of getting any tasks done. Tell us what might have happened to you during those eight hours. "Aww hell! I must've done it again," I thought to myself. "When am I going to learn not to open additional tabs when I'm supposed to be working?" Other Me: "Work is boring though. What's wrong with a little bit of time on WDC every now and then throughout the day?" Responsible Me again: "I don't get paid to go on WDC, or to play that farming game either. I need to get my priorities straight, work when it's time to work. There's plenty enough time to write and play after that." Other Me: "Whatever. Already know I'm gonna do the same thing again tomorrow. At least I was logged in to the work computer...that's what they go by. Not how much work I get done" Responsible Me: "This really is a losing battle. Work can't compete with WDC!" |
11/5/21 Prompt: “In November, the smell of food is different. It has an orange smell. A squash and pumpkin smell. It tastes like cinnamon and can fill up a house in the morning, can pull everyone from bed in a fog. Food is better in November than any other time of the year.”― Cynthia Rylant Do you agree or disagree? Is there a particular dish that you associate solely with November? The food/smell I associate most with November is pumpkin pie and pumpkin spice. It's everywhere this time of year. Candles and incense, air fresheners, coffee creamers, pumpkin nog, seasonal cookies, shakes, cappuccinos, iced coffees... and the list continues on. Don't get me wrong, I like pumpkin pie and I'll eat a slice of it each year on Thanksgiving but I think they've gone overboard with it over the last ten years or so.  |
| November 5, 2021 Prompt: You arrive at work today with five donuts and five coffees for the people who are scheduled to be there. But you have a problem. Counting you, six people are there, and all of you love coffee and donuts! How do you and your friends resolve this?  So, how does one solve this dilemma? It would depend on the mood I was in that day... If I happened to be in a giving mood, I would allow the other five people in the office to have the coffee and donuts. Besides, they don't know that I had a dozen donut holes on the commute to work. I can afford to be giving. And I don't mind drinking the office coffee. If I felt like being "fair" in everyone's eyes, I'd divvy up the coffee and donuts equally amongst everyone, keeping the donut 6ths for myself. They more closely resemble donut holes. And besides, again - I had a dozen holes on my way to work. If I was "feeling a little froggy" that morning, I would devise some sort of game to determine who would and who wouldn't get the morning treat. What do I care? I've already had donut holes this morning. And if I was in the mood to be a b*tch, I'd take all the donuts and coffee into my office to enjoy by myself. They could have bought their own and I could use a little more caffeine and sugar to get me through my workday. It's all mine suckers! |

You're so right, they are definitely perceptive. They know when you need extra attention, and they know when to keep an eye out for you. They are definitely a blessing from God.
