Saturday Centus

 

 
To every thing there is a season.

And this continues to be my season to be physically laid up.

I can't manage this right now.

I'm barely writing anything and have been having hand tremors that make it difficult to type.

I need to figure out what's going on with me...

...and work on solutions and getting better.

In the meantime, though, I'm stopping this Meme for a while.

Perhaps not forever, but I'm truly just not sure.

It's making me quite emotional writing this so I'll just keep this short and sweet.

Until further notice, SC will be down.

I'll keep you posted as to what's going on with me.

I have loved doing this with you all.

I am heartsick that I can't keep up with it anymore.

Please take good care of yourself my long-time and wonderful SC friends.

Hugs from Arizona,

You guys are good.

Friday night I asked Mr. Jenny for a prompt for this week.

Welcome to week ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE of Saturday Centus. 

I liked doing just a word prompt last week.

I'm looking forward to reading your offerings, too.

Unfortunately this oral surgery has kicked my butt more than I planned and I'm still laid up.

I'll be by to visit you soon, though...I promise.

And in the interim let's try writing EXACTLY one hundred words ABOUT one word again

Just like last week, you can't actually use the word in the writing.

At all.

Let's try something totally and completely different this week.

How about EXACTLY one hundred words ABOUT one word.

BUT...

You can't actually use the word in the writing.

Kind of like that game where you have to describe the word but can't use it.

I can't remember the name of that game...

...but I like it.

I think.

FORBIDDEN

Welcome to week ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE of Saturday Centus. 

 Tracy had a great idea for this weeks prompt.   She suggested we write an acrostic poem for Father's Day.   I kinda/sorta stink at these so this seemed like a good challenge.

 

Here's HOW to write an acrostic poem (in case you're in doubt):

 

Decide what to write about

Write your word down vertically.

Brainstorm words or phrase on the lines that being with the same letters.

Fill in the rest of the line to create a poem.

 

You don't have to use the word Father.  You can use Poppa, Dad, Daddy or whatever you call(ed) the Father figure in your own life.

 

The prompt this week:   An acrostic poem as described above

Number of words:  No more than 100 total

Style of writing: Any
