It's Sunday, May 19, 2013, the prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" is Blog. Tell us about your week. Include your favorite blog entry from your fellow challengers from the preceding week and, most importantly, why. And the prompt for "Blogging Circle of Friends Prompt Forum" is Today's a free day with no prompt, so blog on whatever your heart desires and have a beautiful day! My favorite blog entry for the week of May 12 to May 18, 2013 is "This one's about boo-kays and stupid." by Fivesixer . I created the following item "City Vampire" for Round Five of "Invalid Item" . This week I am working on the Round Six entry. On Saturday, May 18, I discovered another stupid thing I did. For the entire week, I did not wash the coffee cup I use to reheat leftover coffee in the microwave and as a result I have coffee stains in my cup that I may not be able to get out. I review these stories (among others) "Invalid Item" by Uncommonspirit and "The Things They Abandoned" by Vacant Vagrant . For the second week in a row, I bought cold cuts from the deli section when I went to the grocery store on Friday. I know I do not need the salt, but I wanted cold cuts this weekend to eat. This may very well be another stupid thing I did; however, I will not know that until I see if my feet and legs swell from retaining the salt. On Sunday, May 12, I visited Mom's grave and said a prayer for the departed. Then on the afternoon of Wednesday, May 15, I attended my grief counseling meeting. The weather in Las Vegas for the week of Sunday, May 12, to Saturday, May 18, was sometimes nice and sometimes otherwise. We had some triple degree days with wind, which causes the blow dryer effect. The mornings and evenings were cool, with birds singing all week long. Thought of the Day: "I believe humans get a lot done, not because we're smart, but because we have thumbs so we can make coffee." ~ Flash Rosenberg |
