Daily Prompt – the cat says meow
The Cat Says Meow Well, she is at it again. Walking back and forward to the shed. It isn't really a shed, more of a wooden box with a sofa. It used to be my home.

I do procrastinate, but it usually involves writing. You see I love to write, but not all subjects. So… Continue reading Daily Prompt – Procrastination
Daily Prompt -PC
Politically Correct To be politically correct or not... That is the question and the reason why it is so important.
