100 Word Challenge for Grown Ups – Week#146

It has been a strange week. My son’s father died suddenly and although he was poorly, it was a shock.

So, how do I feel? What should I feel when the father of my child leaves us in his mid 60’s? We had always been friendly and met at the regular round of birthdays, high days and holidays.

As a mother, I’m struggling. My son does not live near so trying to support him as he sorts out his aged grand parents, plans a funeral and deals with his father being intestate is hard. He will be fine. He’s my son.

Your prompt this week is:

…with your going comes the past…

100 word Challenge for Grown Ups – Week#134

I am very lucky to have a garden and even luckier that a variety of birds visit each day. At the moment we have 2/3 blackbirds who are really ruling the roost so to speak. They are beautiful song birds I know, but they are having a conversation. You can tell with the intonation of the sounds and the responses from another birds.

So, your prompt this week is to write that conversation! It can be about anything. Doesn’t have to be ‘bird stuff’. Take it where you like. I may even read some of them in the garden and see what response I get from the birds!

Enjoy!

The link will be open until Sunday 25th May
