Lovely Ron with his Haiku Challenge prompt words this week:
I tried really hard to do a real haiku, basing it around nature, but my brain wasn’t engaging! However, I managed a senryu, using synonyms instead!

My hands giving you pleasure

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!

“If you are facing in the right direction, all you need to do is keep on walking.” – Buddha
A lovely quote Spidey, thank you.
We are all too used to these quick-fix solutions nowadays.
In cleaning, rather than setting to with your sponges and scrubbing brushes, there are electric brushes, promising cleanliness miracles in seconds, and wipes to clean just about everything.
When you want to get a response to a question, you have your mobile – a text, or message via the numerous apps available means that you are able to contact people pretty much any time.
Why wait for that bus to come, when you can just Uber yourself somewhere?
We tend to think that there will be a lightning fast solution for everything in life.
But sometimes you have to just take each day one step at a time, knowing you are going to reach your destination, but that journey may take time.
Small steps in the right direction, are better than going off-piste, trying to rush to a conclusion that may end up not being what you wanted…
Persevere with your personal journey Peeps, and enjoy your Sunday !!!!!
What step will you take, to keep life going in the right direction, Peeps?

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!
Happy Saturday Peeps!
