Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Magnet
It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday, and this week’s prompt was sent by e-mail. I miss Linda’s visits, but I can understand that she can’t get to the 10,000 folks who like her prompts every week. This week’s prompt is “magnet”, and of course, Linda says we can use it any way we […]
Friday JohnKu – AKA – TGIF

Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt Mini/Maxi
It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again, and here comes Linda Hill carrying a big and little box. I’ll bet she has a surprise for us as far as a prompt goes. “Hi, Linda. What’s in the boxes?” “It’s the Holiday, John. It needs to be a surprise. Put these under the tree […]
