Word of the day

Daily writing prompt
How much would you pay to go to the moon?

I have zero interest in going to the moon. Honestly, I can’t think of anything worse. Sounds scary and dangerous and I value my life more than that.

I have no interest in feeling all that gravity stuff, the freeze dried food or losing so much bone mass. Does that sound like a fun time? Not to me.

I am beyond relieved that the weekend is here. No early morning workout, no alarm going off at 5:15.

It’s supposed to be relatively warm and actually get into the double digits, ABOVE zero. Most of that big dump of snow we got at Thanksgiving has melted, thank god.

I plan to wash some windows outside and organize Sid’s toys inside. At 5 pm Cordelia and I are taking Sid to the “Trunk or Treat” event at the rec centre here and hopefully through both haunted houses.

I was thinking this morning of how grateful I am to no longer have to work shift work. I spent so many Saturdays and Sundays doing twelve hour shifts and away from my kids.

Grateful is the word of the day.

  8. I’m with you about going to the moon. I’m really not interested in going there or anywhere else in space. People are spending millions to go to space; they should give the money to us instead so we can spend it on better things.

      1. Yes, or provide free housing and free childcare so single moms can work and improve their lives. You see, we should manage their money.
