"September 13, 2019" 

Prompt: "What is your favorite thing about the street on which you live?"

I like that it is typically very quiet here. I live at the West Virginia Veterans Home and it is typically a very quiet place to live. We are on a hill overlooking the city below us. With the exception of an occasional train or a periodic fire truck their is very little to break the silence. It is relaxing and peaceful. Sometimes it is too much so. I enjoy the solitude most of the time. At other times I want somebody to talk to or something to do. Writing and studying usually keep me pretty busy. This is Friday so today I will spend most of the day writing with an occasional nap for good measure.It's my day off so I get to enjoy myself. Tomorrow I will study for a test on Tuesday. Today however I will write poetry and probably some reviews, I have won several poetry contests lately on https:allpoetry.com. I have changed my writing style and it worked. I no longer use descriptive words. Now I use basically nouns,pronouns, prepositions (sparingly) and verbs. It works. I've been winning a lot. My street gives me a lot of quiet time to write.

Prompt: "How have your friendships with other women inspired you, or helped you to become a better you?"

Well I am not a woman so I can't say that my relationship with "other women" has done anything for me.
