“And it’s a wrap!”

That’s it!

#JusJoJan is over!

What am I going to do with myself??!!

Actually, I may take a well-earned break… but you know me, blogging breaks rarely mean me not blogging, but rather attempting to reduce my posts for a while.

So whilst I continue with the challenges that I enjoy participating in, and I can’t forget Spidey on a Sunday, I may just go a little quiet…

Possibly this is the time to get that WIP of mine finished!

Half term is coming, possibly I can concentrate on writing then, and get this first draft done!

Here’s hoping anyway!

For Linda’s #1LinerWeds Challenge and #JusJoJan.

Day twenty-nine of #JusJoJan!

I’m going to try to write on each of the prompts!

Today the prompt is:

Your prompt for January 29th 2018, brought to you by author, Jill (J-Dubs), is “Fantastic” Use it any way you’d like in your post. And make sure you visit Leta at her blog, “J-Dubs Grin and Bear It” to read her post and say hi! Here’s her link: https://jilywily.wordpress.com/

Fantastic

It’s been a while since I can say, hand on heart, that I have woken up in the morning feeling fantastic.

Maybe it’s the weather, or the dark mornings, that make me feel more lethargic.

It could be the craziness at work, the being split in two with my two class teacher hats on.

Or is just a general bleurgh at life at the moment?

Possibly, I am suffering from SAD – Seasonal Affected Disorder – but I don’t think so. It’s never really affected me before.

But I know I definitely don’t feel fantastic.

Here’s hoping the fantastic kicks in in February!

See you tomorrow!

Day twenty-eight of #JusJoJan!

I’m going to try to write on each of the prompts!

Today the prompt is:

Your prompt for January 26th 2018, brought to you by author, Leta Hawk, is “Knight” Use it any way you’d like in your post. And make sure you visit Leta at her blog, “Hawk’s Happenings” to read her post and say hi! Here’s her link: https://letaphawk.wordpress.com

Knight

What a great prompt today!

Not least because I spent a good hour yesterday morning talking about Knights to Lil Princess!

Her Literacy homework this weekend comprised of drawing a picture of a knight, male or female, and then writing a character description, both physical and personality to be discussed, for use in a writing project later next week.

I shan’t go into detail with her words, but I had to share her picture.

Lil Princess has recently gone a bit anime crazy. She doesn’t watch them, but loves to draw anime figures, so the knight got the anime treatment too!

So let me present to you, Knight Nyla! (Obviously, she chose an empowering female knight!)

See you tomorrow!

#SoCS Jan. 27/18 – #JusJoJan Day 27 – Movement (or not!)

Linda’s prompt for SoCS this week…

Your prompt for #JusJoJan and Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: movement. However, don’t use the word “movement.” Choose some sort of movement, and base your post on that. Enjoy!

Using blink as my movement

Standing stock still is really tough.
But I’m determined to win this.
Musical Statues is my thing.
I’ve managed to get to the last two, and my competitor is pretty good at this.
Phew! The music is on again, I can have a little boogie, get the jitters out of my body and get ready to hold my position to victory.
Off!
Stop.
Stock still again.
Oh Jeez, the sun’s coming out and it is bright, so bright, must… not… blink…
Dang! I blinked! And the judge saw. That’s me out.
No fair!

That’s it for me today!
