Write about your first crush. Often, before stepping into the shower, I’ll read the daily prompt and let my mind cogitate on ideas before I sit down to write over my morning coffee, However, when I saw this prompt, I immediately flashed back (cue flipping calender sheets) to Veronica.

Countries to Visit?
What countries do you want to visit? I was going to begin with a list of places I did not want to visit, but thought that sounded negative, so I’ll begin with the positive “where I do want to go” places. Since we already have a trip to the UK planned for this fall (England,Continue reading “Countries to Visit?”
When I Think About Me, I…um…
What’s your favorite thing about yourself? I always thought that the popular song, referenced in my title, would be a good anthem for an egotist. Hopefully you know what song I mean, but I’ll link to it anyway, and you can join my earworm club for the day. As for my favorite thing about me,Continue reading “When I Think About Me, I…um…”
Oldest Item?
What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily? I’m a bit baffled by this prompt. I don’t think anything I have fits this category.

Summer Better Than Others
What is your favorite season of year? Why? Of the seasons, I prefer summer for a variety of reasons. We’ll get to those reasons in a moment, but let’s look at the cons of the others. Winter has cold and often snow. Although I did some sledding as a child, this was not as fulfillingContinue reading “Summer Better Than Others”
Luxury!?
What’s the one luxury you can’t live without? An odd prompt. Once again, I am pressed to define something before I can comment on it. To me, a luxury is something that one doesn’t need but possesses to enjoy. Luxuries are those things that one can win on a game show. I don’t need aContinue reading “Luxury!?”

A Good Life?
What are the most important things needed to live a good life? I’m confused by today’s prompt. What exactly does it mean, “to live a good life”? Is that a morally good existence? Is it a happy, and therefore good, life? Does it mean a satisfied life, free of want and care? There are someContinue reading “A Good Life?”
