Topic: cinnamon
It’s no secret supermarket bakery prices continually rose in recent
months resulting in customers finding it necessary to bypass one
of my long-time favorites, the yummie ‘cinnamon’ bun top spread
plentiful with vanilla icing.
Today’s prompt: ‘wee’ or word containing ‘wee’
Teacher. . .

Turns in assignment a ‘wee’ bit late
Employer . . .
Late arrival ‘interviewee’ no resume
Dismisses ‘weepiness’ fail hire presume
Preparedness quite important business world
Unfortunate attempt mislead worn-out ‘bittersweet’ fizzled

Today’s prompt word: ring
Cell phone conversation – fictitious name . . .
Ring – Ring – Ring
Me: ‘Hello’
Crista: ‘Hi, how are you?’
Me: ‘With whom am I speaking?
Crista: ‘It’s your friend, Crista.’
Passing thought = OH!
Me: ‘Sorry I didn’t recognize your voice.’ -‘I’m doing okay.’ – ‘And how are you?’
Crista: ‘My days are so busy.’ – ‘I keep meaning to ring your number then it’s too
late to call.’
Passing thought = REALLY!
A short conversation – my new practice for long overdue callers – 10 minutes max.
Ring – Ring – Ring
Me: ‘Sorry to cut our catching up short – there’s an incoming call on my
other cell phone.’
Crista: ‘Okay, let’s stay in contact.’
Passing thought: I WOULDN’T COUNT ON IT.
The above is how I feel towards the few who were part of my face-to-face life for
25 to 35 years who fail to call then feeling guilty contact me with what I consider
a fake explanation.
You promised you’d be there for me. Remember?? Then you disappeared
from my life.
If I call you I can count on leaving a voice message and if lucky a return call in 3 to 4
days.
There are many sayings to read with regard on how you allow others to treat you.
Interesting though people dislike when you give them a taste of their own
behavior.
No, I haven’t heard from Crista in over two years and I refuse to call her since it was
always I who took the initiative.
I doubt I’m mistaken about the definition of friendship being a two-way street.
I’m certain though there’ll be a Christmas card in my mailbox again this year.
Sorry, the intended recipient will place it unopened in the trash same as year 2019.
It was nice knowing you – how quickly people forget promises to another who fell
on hard times.

Today’s prompt: cortisone shot
I’ve often wondered why many humans share their experiences of a cortisone shot
in a negative light; those comments instill fear and panic to a patient suffering
intense pain and in need of relief only accomplished with medication from
that injection.

Today’s words: Friday – hunt – poetry
Friday‘s paycheck strayed
Capacious purse hunt pursue
Poetry books three
Breathe – envelope caught betwixt
Pages literary work
