MARVELOUS MAY....Day 11

 

Yesterday was indeed the weirdest day ever.  The piece CRAZY DAY is truth. I had to put gas in the rental I had.  Well the place was sure crowded at 8:15am. Next traffic going through Lake Wales and Winter Haven terrible.  It seemed the snowbirds never migrated north.  The car rental just as busy and so was my mechanic when trying to pick up my car.  Let’s not even discuss traffic on US 17 in Winter Haven.   CVS Pharmacy had a big crowd as well as the post office.  I couldn’t wait to get home.  
I had a meeting at the Amvets.  I’m so amazed that people are so hooked on watching game shows.  They sit at the bar watching them.  Now I like game shows, but don’t flock to a bar to watch.  I think it’s funny they are addicted to them.  Perhaps they don’t get the game show channel at home why they watch at the club.  Now there is I e customer and as soon as he comes in around 11:30 each morning the Game Show channel better be in for him to watch Deal or No Deal at noon. No kidding here.  
I saw the funniest cartoon about Charles Dickens having writers block and how he breaks through.  He goes to a bar asks for a martini. The bartender say olive or twist. I thought would it work for me.  No it did not. Oh well. 
Yesterday the UK word was NAPPY.  Now to me a nappy is a cute way of saying nap or even napkin. Oh no! A nappy is a diaper.  I did two funny pieces on this word. I used a few other UK words I researched referring to babies. 
Well my mind did kick in as I began another episode part of FtS (Fairmount to Starkley).  It all popped into my head as I sat waiting for my meeting to begin. A big thanks to all the people I heard talking away about nothing. You also triggered a piece to write.  
Well it’s Tuesday or as of my one Facebook friend says “Monday’s Ugly Sister”.  
Until tomorrow....have a good day and as always Stay Safe.

                  CRAZY DAY
My day has been crazy 
 from the very start
Woke up feeling as if I did not sleep at all
Traffic....crowded places....traffic 
     everywhere I went
I thought the snowbirds migrated back 
  home
or maybe everyone happen to be out
  and about today
 
                 THE CARTOON 
 Saw a  cartoon about Charles Dickens
He had writers block
At a bar he orders a martini
Not sure up straight or on the rocks
All I know is that it was funny
What the bartender did ask him 
   gave Dickens idea for
  another story
Why can’t this happen to me?
All I was asked if I wanted a cup of ice
with my bottle of water 
Don’t see a story from that question 
Guess I’ll keep trying to find inspiration 

             BORING....I YAWN

Finding inspiration on what to write
Not easy when your mind whirls and 
       whirls
 Thoughts twist and turn in my brain 
Glancing around at people 
Listening to their conversation 
No one saying anything of importance
Gibberish....gobbledegook....
   codswallop 
Same old stories they tell but different audience
Yawn....yawn everyone is a bore today

               BABY’S STROLL 
Changing baby’s nappy 
  dressing the nipper in
a yellow baby grow suit 
Taking the little one out in the pram
  for a stroll in the fresh air 
jumper and bonnet 
   are called for
  the weather a tad chilly today 
Can’t forget the dummy 
  
                BABYSITTING 
I need to do it snappy
to change the nipper’s nappy
That kid sure can go through 
 the diapers
Happens every time I babysit  

😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
     WACKY HOLIDAYS MAY 10th
(National Shrimp Day; National Golf  
   Day; National Hamster Day and Clean
   Your Room Day)

Sometimes I feel like a hamster on a wheel
 spinning no where 
It nice to see a few out playing golf today 
I’m stuck inside cleaning my room
and making shrimp scampi for dinner
