    Thanks for a shortie this week as a busy season takes off! Mine is not overly original but I used my very first thought. Is that good to do in writing?

    You're a mean one, Mrs. Matlock, but I'm gonna play. No poodle skirts or sweet 16 for me, but I'm gonna play anyway. ;)

    I first thought of posting an autobiographical- quoted by one of my fave authors, but then this time of year always brings back surprisingly a very major event that happened when I was sixteen, so I posted my own....many things happened during my 16th year of life but they all paled in comparison to this....

    heehee

    Now tell me true, Jenny. Are you just doing this so you can catch up on your reading more easily? (Clever girl!)

    Your timing is exactly right for me because I have a very busy day ahead...

    ;)

    Jeff- still can't comment on your post, but awesome post, and I'd say you were already pondering a beautiful (or is it wonderful) life!

    Thanks for the prompt Jenny, I didn't like the past couple (I couldn't think of what I wanted to write for them) but this one was easy!! Thanks :)

    LOL @ Sue's comment. She's a wise one! Anyway...right up my alley: 16 words about an angst ridden time. Yep. I can work with that!

    This was a fun prompt Jenny! Makes me have to go into the cinders of the boarded up room I left many years ago. Fun!
    Thank you
    Blessings

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!
