I Miss Funny Friday and Creative Saturday

It is Saturday, August 3, 2013, and there is no official "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"  this month. I am the only one signed up for the unofficial version, so my post to that forum will be hit and miss. Yesterday, I realized that I missed the Funny Friday prompts because it gave me something amusing or down right funny to laugh about. This morning it dawned on me that I miss the Creative Saturday prompts.

Friday started off with me screwing up the coffee. When I placed the carafe in the coffee maker, I got it crooked and as a result it did not make a full pot. Most of the water or coffee went onto the floor, at least I think that is where it went. This means that I have to mop the floor under the coffee maker. No I did not mop it up on Friday, so now when I mop the floor in the breakfast room I will have a worse mess then the one already facing me. I did a better job with the coffee this morning, but I think I will have to clean the coffee maker out by running some vinegar water through it.

This morning started off a lot better then yesterday. Today I got up before the alarm went off. I took my first med at 3:45 AM and then I took a bag of trash to the garage. I slept better last night, I believe that is because I did not use my pillow. My pillow smells and I cannot sleep without inhaling the odor which interferes with a good night sleep. I have two more pillows in the house, so I can throw this one in the trash because I am not going to wash it. I know Grandma Mary would wash the pillow, but I am going to follow my Mother's lead on pillows and eventually purchase a new one.

On creative Saturday
I threw my stinky pillow away.

This morning the first thing I did when I logged into writing.com was check "Three Word Mayhem!"  and post a three-word phrase. I know my creative juices are flowing. I have at least two poems to write, but it is about 4:50 AM now. I took my thyroid med over an hour ago so I can take my other morning med and drink some coffee. I think my creative juice will flow much more easily after a sip or two of caffeine. Perhaps I can achieve my word count goal today, I did not do a good job of achieving it on Friday.

A strong cup of coffee makes me smile
and drives away my worries for a while.
