Sweltering Celt

It’s cold already here. Today was an outdoor concert and I thought my fingers might freeze off before we managed to finish. Thankfully it was a short concert.  The leaves are changing, and so are many aspects of life in this crazy little family. This morning I had a lengthy conversation about some of those changes, and it occurred to me that a fantasy could be had of one of them (or more, but I’ll keep it simple this week)…

This week, your theme is: Training.

Home from Montana.  Wow, what a great vacation!  We did a ton of stuff and relaxed too.  Glacier Park is as awesome as I remember, but to be honest the best part of the vacation was what happened when I opened the car door upon arriving at our cabin.  I was assaulted with all the smells I had forgotten exist in that part of the forest, and hadn’t smelled for at least 15 years.  In honor of that, this week I present you with the following theme: Scents.  Have at it!

This week, I am away. Far, FAR away.  I am in a place where there is seriously limited cell service and not much in the way of internet, either.  This is ooookay with me!  My graduation present from my sister was a week at our family’s cabin in Montana, just outside Glacier Park, so I’m going to take some time to enjoy the scenery, hike a lot, fish a little, and more or less just relax and enjoy myself.

This week, I won’t be able to approve comments until next weekend when I’m back (or if I can find wifi with my cellphone) so I’m voting to take a week off and, again, write about whatever your little heart desires.  Or, if you so choose, you can get started on next week.  I’ll give you a sneak peek – the theme is going to have something to do with nature again.  Just a specific kind of nature.

I’m having a heck of a time thinking of a theme this week, since starting a new job totally took the piss and vinegar right out of me. Temporarily… teehee!

So this week, you’re going to think of your own theme.  Pick your favorite fantasy and write a tiny part of it.  If you like, tell me the theme you chose for it and maybe we’ll use it for another Microfantasy Monday down the road!

Wow. This last week has been hell for a great many reasons, but it’s a new day and so is tomorrow so this week, let’s all write something…

Positive.

Your version of positivity might be different than someone else’s – who cares? Positive is positive. Let’s all give each other some positive.

I am taking a break from heavy duty chores in horrid summer heat to bring you this week’s MfM theme:

Sweat.

88 is such an interesting number.  It could represent so many different things – four eyes, twice infinity, the speed we need to reach to go back in time…

And since I’m feeling pretty geeky tonight, your theme is going to revolve around something geeky.  Anything geeky.  Tweak it however you like.

Yes.  It is me.  And I am posting pictures.

Prepare yourself for more of this…

Her muscles were as tense as tense could be as she strained to maintain her balance on her toes with her arms splayed skyward, fingertips barely brushing the beams above her head.  Her calves screamed and her head ached from the tension on the rope wound through her hair like a sadistic serpent, pulling tighter and tighter.

And then the rope was undone. She was allowed to collapse into His arms. And the relief came in waves of sobs and sighs.

Time is FLYING!  I have a lot of blog posts I want to write but working with new developments and getting out to enjoy the summer seems to be taking more time than I expected… but do look for a big huge life update post this week I think.

This week, your MfM theme is Relief.  Enjoy!
