Friday JohnKu – AKA TGIF

One more eight-hour day until the weekend. I think we can all do eight hours. I have been complaining about the weather for so long I do have to acknowledge when MN (Mother Nature) does a spectacular job. This week was glorious. Our temperature have been in the Highs in the upper eighties and plenty of sunshine. Made it very hard not to grab a chair and umbrella (and boat drink) and run out on responsibilities. I did stick to the right path and did not weaken. It was sure tempting though. This week JohnKu (a term coined by Words4jp) is about temptation. I hope you like it.

    Nice Johnku. I’m starting to think that success actually equals fun. If there’s no fun, then other things don’t mean so much. Have a fabulous Friday. Hugs.

    Cincinnati is warm with a touch of muggy … but breezes making temps manageable .. but we could use some rain, but chances slim till Monday.

    Seems like you fought off the lure … well, at least a little.

    Cheers to the Johnku and the advice it delivers … so let us clink glasses!

    Nice Johnku, and that photo perfectly illustrates it!! ‘Tis such a temptation to run out on our duties when fair skies beckon — congrats on resisting the temptation. That builds character, doesn’t it?!?

      Builds character yes. Is more fun? Not so much.

    I hated when my mother drummed into our heads, “Work first; play later.”
    I’m glad she did because temptation arises on a fabulous summer day.
    Wonderful JohnKu. You can enjoy yourself soon. The weekend’s upon us.
    😀

    I can resist everything except for temptation — Oscar Wilde. A quote I’ve come across on Twitter a few times. Discipline is essential especially for writers it seems. Unfortunately a severe hangover disrupted my efforts today. Enjoy the margarita ad the sunshine.

      Severe hangover has only one cure. Cheers.
