LOVE MOTHER EARTH
KEEP HER CLEAN.
INVEST IN THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE.

If you can’t bring yourself to pick up a piece of trash and chuck it into a receptacle, then at least don’t add to the mess! Â I hope the sun is shining on you today and that you can feel the good all around you. Â Seize the day, and some trash.
CARPE DIEM, BABY!
No. Not “my” Jeff. This is fictional Jeff. He was created by a very talented blogger by the name of Allan. Allan wrote a response to a story prompt that you’ll find here  and I would advise you to read it before you continue. I’ll wait…
OK. So after reading the story, I thought I would respond to Allan’s tale with my own version of “the other side of the story”.  He very graciously told me to have at it.
Now if you’ve read the story (I told you it would be a good idea to do that first), there is Jeff (the husband) and – the way I read it – Julie, the girlfriend, and Monica, the scorned wife. I asked “my Jeff” to read Allan’s story and he agreed that the women’s roles could be switched. But I’m going with Monica as the wife. I should have asked Allan (the author).
Too many names? Are you dizzy yet? OK well, chill. Here’s Monica’s 100 word side of the story. P.S. Writing a hundred word story ain’t easy.
Trying to blend in with its rough, cold exterior, Monica pressed her back against the wall behind her. She stood watching from across the street. The wind whipped around the corner where she huddled to keep warm, but she knew it wasn’t the wretched wind that was causing the chill creeping up her spine. Earlier, she watched as Jeff made his way to the rear of the hideous building. Now, as she watched him cross the parking lot to his truck, she knew she should never have come.
Monica waited until her husband pulled away, pocketed the pistol, and headed for home.
Well? What do you think? Should I stick to doodling? OK maybe so, but it was fun. Sometimes something gets in your head and under your skin and you just have to get it off your chest. (lot of body parts here, but you get my drift.)
Thanks for coming this far. Have a good week everyone.
It’s March 20, 2015. It’s the first day of SPRING! It’s snowing! I will NOT share how I feel about that. So…
List 2 things you have to be happy about?
I can’t even think of anything that comes before this. I am grateful for my husband, Jeff. For too many reasons to list.
And my other love, something that I will not say is my passion because I’ve complained about not having a passion, so I’ll just say it’s something that makes me happy, relaxed, and, yes, a little confident that there is still hope that one day I will have a passion. My tangling.
Zentangle – A happy thing. Not a passion
Do you prefer ketchup or mustard or mayonnaise?
Mayo.
Everything else gets HOT SAUCE!
If you were to paint a picture of your childhood, what colors would you use?
Black, mostly.
Do you prefer a bath or shower?
Shower. Definitely! No photos. Don’t thank me. 😉
Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, Having lunch with my friend, Gen. I have very little adult, human contact (sad, I know) with Jeff working away from home so much and with Gen living two hours away, so I’m always grateful when I get to see her. We talk (a lot), and laugh (a lot), and share (a lot) and for that I am oh, so grateful.
50 plus of friendship – what’s not to be grateful about
and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up? Easy. SPRING! The weather may not be cooperating today, but the word “spring” is out there now so it can’t be long.
Please take some time to stop off at Cee’s for more sharing and for a look at a sensation blog. Click on the icon below.
I took some liberties this week – I’ll attribute it to poetic license.
A rose that captured my heart
My Converging Tangle
You might notice some white spots in the black ink. I could say I meant to do that. Truth is I need a new pen – ROAD TRIP!
A blend of the two

Thanks for the visit, comment, or like. Heck! Thanks for just taking the time to stop by.
As you may (or may not) have noticed, I made an attempt at doodling in an earlier post. I thought it was reasonably acceptable for a first attempt. I started out on paper and branched out to a clay flower pot. Between the circular curvature of the pot, and the swirls and curls of the mighty pen, I think the new doodle might qualify for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge.  I’m taking a shot.
The wine glass has a little curve of its own. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by, liking, commenting, and browsing. I hope you’ll drop off at Cee’s for more cirlces and curves.
I’ve become intrigued by the art of doodling. So yesterday, before opening my email, I began doing a bit of doodling of my own. Fearing I’d get sloppy after a half hour of pen to paper, I stopped to check my email. It struck me as coincidental that the challenge for this week was titled “Lost in the Details.” Peace – Lost in the Details.
It’s my first attempt at this doodling thing. I found it quite relaxing and engaging. You should try it.
Stop over at WordPress by clicking here and take a “Where’s Waldo” look at more of Lost in the Details.
