Non-Fiction, Prompt, Word of the Day Challenge

Memorial – Word of the Day Challenge

Rules for the Word of the Day Challenge:

Today’s word of the day is MEMORIAL.

********************

We held a memorial service for my dad and since he was a veteran they had a flag line leading up to the entrance and they did the flag folding service for him. Since it was all inside there were no gun salutes, but the service was nice anyway.

#1linerWeds, Non-Fiction, Prompt

One-Liner Wednesday – Interruptions

Badge by Laura @ riddlefromthemiddle.com

**********

One of the worse things about living in assisted living is the constant interruptions, but at least I am no longer forgetting to take my meds.

**********

Linda’s Rules:

If you would like to participate in this prompt, feel free to use the “One-Liner Wednesday” title in your post, and if you do, you can ping back here to help your blog get more exposure. To execute a pingback, just copy the URL in the address bar on this post, and paste it somewhere in the body of your post. Your link will show up in the comments below. Please ensure that the One-Liner Wednesday you’re pinging back to is this week’s! Otherwise, no one will likely see it but me.

NOTE: Pingbacks only work from WordPress sites. If you’re self-hosted or are participating from another host, like Blogger, please leave a link to your post in the comments below.

As with Stream of Consciousness Saturday (SoCS), if you see a pingback from someone else in my comment section, click and have a read. It’s bound to be short and sweet.

Unlike SoCS, this is not a prompt so there’s no need to stick to the same “theme.”

The rules that I’ve made for myself (but don’t always follow) for “One-Liner Wednesday” are:

1. Make it one sentence.

2. Try to make it either funny or inspirational.

3. Use our unique tag #1linerWeds.

4. Add our lovely badge to your post for extra exposure!

5. Have fun!

#99Word Stories, Fiction, Prompt, The Carrot Ranch

The Carrot Ranch #99WordStories

**********

Squeaking Hello!

By Tessa Dean November 2022

Rex, the hamster, ran on the wheel in his cage, happily squeaking away to whoever would listen to him. He was not the only thing squeaking as I needed to find some oil to try and oil the hamster wheel before it drove the whole family and me crazy.

After finding the oil, I gave Rex some treats so he would get off his exercise wheel, then I oiled it well, so it no longer squeaked. Rex finished his treats and then jumped back on the exercise wheel and began happily running and squeaking to anyone willing to listen.
