It’s been a while, but after gallivanting, our TJ is back with another Household Haiku Prompt!
This time, we are to use the Sun and Moon as our inspiration. You don’t have to use the words, but let them inspire you…

Let me start by saying “Oops!”
No maintaining here this week I’m afraid! Too much fun, and eating plenty meant a gain of 1.5lbs but as I am still way below my 9 and a half stone limit, I think that’s ok!
I have enjoyed much food with my parents, eating naughtily as well as healthy!
As you an see, a mix of naughtiness, and good stuff!
Because of the holidays we are eating more relaxed, and I am quite happy with that. I am encouraging the kids to walk more, so hopefully that will be a good thing this week!
No recipe this week, purely because I haven’t the time!
Enjoy your Healthy Eating this next week Peeps!

A thank you goes out to fellow blogger and friend, Lisa, for nominating me for this fun challenge. The rules are:
Post a song a day for five consecutive days.
Post what the lyrics mean to you. (Optional)
Post the name of the song and video.
Nominate 1 or 2 bloggers each day of the challenge.
Today I give you Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head. I know I posted this song last month too, as part of my #musicalmarch challenge, but I really love the positive message it sends. It is really me, if you know what I mean, even though things may be rough, I know it won’t last, and the sun will shine on me sooner or later!
And humour me… click on the link below to hear me warbling along to the song too! I do love a sing song!

Something even more fun, while rooting through old things at home, I found an old vinyl copy of this song!
And today, I nominate my bloglings, Rich and Erika! Because it’s all about the music, and I know you two luuuurve music!

Sue’s #writephoto prompt for today…
Meet me by the Arch of Stones
Where no one else will be
Hide behind the monument
And wait just there for meLean against the cold grey stone
Press your back just there
You’ll feel a warmth, a breeze
As I gently touch your hairClose your eyes and feel
Me gently stroke your lips
The sensation of my hands
Slipping slowly to your hipsImagine me clasping you tight
Crushing you to my chest
And I shall feel the gentle
Heaving of your breastJust think of me, my love
And know how much I care
For it won’t be too long
Until I’m really there.Ritu 2017
