Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Lid
Being a lovely Saturday morning, I decided to motor to the local Starbucks for an overpriced coffee and blueberry scone. Arriving at the drive-through, I quickly calculated and figured I would be in line for thirty minutes. Heaving a big sigh, I pulled around to the parking area, grabbed my mask, and headed inside. There […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Inspire/Aspire/Expire
It was a quiet morning that could inspire incredible feats of mental productivity. However, before that process could begin, my carbon host kept reminding me to aspire to something even more important than the solution to the world’s problems.

Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt Ode
I was relaxing around the abode when my attention was drawn to the front door. Twiggy was just beginning her famous St. Louis bark, so I knew someone was approaching the house. Grabbing my Ring app, I took a look and was astonished to see what looked like a rhinoceros standing in the driveway. […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Luck
I was taking a break during my bike ride and having a sip of water. Then, looking out over the scenic countryside, I spotted a cloud of dust heading in my direction. I thought it strange that a cloud of dust would appear in a neighborhood that was completely paved. But, since I figured […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Wee
As I was finishing my cup of coffee and a wee scone, I heard what could best be described as a clatter on the roof. Knowing it is nowhere near Christmas, I had a feeling in my gut that it may be of rather large import and worthy of investigation. However, I hesitated at […]
