Tuesday – Anything Possible – Finger Point Prompt – Brushed

~ John W. Howell

I opened the book My GRL randomly to page 191 and, without looking, pointed to the page. The word closest to my finger is “brushed.”

“So, how long did that take?”

“It seemed like ten days, but it was only two. He is now fully brushed.”

“That sounds like a lot of time.”

“That horse is a monster.”

“Yeah, I know. I still can’t figure out why you felt the need to brush him.”

“You know all that dander and dust that builds up under those hairs.”

“Yeah, I’ve seen a little of that.”

“All that crap just got to me one day.”

“I still don’t get the point.”

“I am real tired of drilling through all that just to have lunch.”

“Why not just fly to a cleaner horse?”

“Cause those Clydesdales are real tasty. There’s nothing like them.”

“Funny. I never tried one.”

“You should. This one’s clean enough.”

“Well, thanks for the invite. How about after lunch, we fly over and go for a stroll in the dung pile.”

“You’re on.”

  18. This made me think of our dog who I bathed right before we left on our trip to South Dakota to visit our grandson. The dogsitter just sent us a picture today of Lulu rolling in dog doo doo. So glad I took the time to bathe her.

  20. Funny thing: When I opened your post I was listening to a song by The Smiths. The refrain goes like that:

    “I started something
    I forced you to a zone
    And you were clearly never meant to go
    Hair Brushed and parted
    Typical me, typical me, typical me
    I started something and now I’m not too sure”
