March Writing Prompts, Day 18 – Disappointing disasters
From Putting My Feet in the Dirt, March’s Writing prompts.
Today, “Disappointing disasters”.
I don’t know. In terms of disasters, would we call this one “disappointing”? I mean, people are sick and some are dying, businesses are closing and the economy is in the toilet, there are no eggs or chicken (or toilet paper) in the grocery stores. But (so far) there have been no riots in the streets, I can still buy coffee and bacon (and wine), and there are no zombies…

2020 365: Day 76 (March 16)
The prompt today is “Road Sign”.
I am probably going to be off topic a lot this week. I don’t have any time during the day to think about taking pictures, so will likely end up taking kitten shots. But hey, everyone loves kitten shots, right?
Fandango’s One Word Challenge: Conflate
“Welcome to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). It’s designed to fill the void after WordPress bailed on its daily one-word prompt. Today’s word is “Conflate.””
I’ve posted some of these before, but I do think they fit this theme. You know why… I did miss the picture of the empty Chicken shelves. Yes, all the chicken is gone and no one knows when there will be any coming back in. Chicken?
RagTag Daily Prompt: Delightful
A response in starting over with a new daily avoidance (or non-avoidance, as the case may be), here with the Ragtag Daily Prompt , today is Delightful.”
My delightful lunch last Sunday with delightful friends on our annual Helleborganza excursion, which I am very glad we took before all hell broke loose…

March Writing Prompts, Day 16 – A tale of turbulence
From Putting My Feet in the Dirt, March’s Writing prompts.
Today, “A tale of turbulence”.
A tale of turbulence will be my day at work today. For those of you who don’t know, I work for a college in Victoria, BC, and at 8:00pm Saturday night, we received notice that as of Monday, all classes would be moving from face to face delivery to alternative delivery methods to help prevent the spread of the coronovirus. Oh, did I mention I work in eLearning? This is my tale or turbulence. Kind of explains why I had a work dream last night that involved an earthquake.
The thing about turbulence is that you often know it’s coming, but can’t always tell how bad it is going to be until you are in the middle of it. And that’s where we are at work right now. The calm before the bumps. How bumpy will it get? Will our plane take huge dives, plunging dramatically as we scream in terror? Who knows!
What I can say is that this is one plane ride I think I will enjoy (strangely enough), just like Kevin enjoys a real turbulent plane ride, plunges and all. Hold on to your hats folks!
