    Hi John,  Brenda's word prompt with the word "happy" should end up with some poems or stories that lighten our moods.  We are still very busy with our home sale, and finding another place to live.  I don't have that much time to be reading or responding right now.  But just musing about the word of happy makes me so.  Wishing all of my HP friends here much happiness!

    Has anyone responded to this prompt already? I'm not seeing any responses yet on my feed. 'happy' is a good word prompt as it makes you think what feels good and what are the things to be happy about. Struggling to this prompt might mean you've been lonely lately. But I'll try hard. thank u for this new word prompt just in time.

      I just finished reading your work and figured out you were writing another part.

      Your Birthday trip sounds so amazing.

      I'm happy you got to do this & I look forward to reading the rest when you feel up to writing.

      No worries...
      Take care of yourself.

      We all have bad days...and for some of we must take rest.

      I totally understand.   I've been having issues myself.

      Get some sleep...kick back...watch some tv.
      Just get feeling better.

    I'm working on a new word prompt that I hope you'll enjoy, but I ran into a bit of a snag.
    I got to visit hospital again & I have doctors appt this afternoon.

    But it won't be too much longer & I'll be posting a new word prompt.

        Happy to hear you are looking forward to the new word prompt.

        Doctors visit just made my blood boil. 
        The doctor thinks he is God...& that doesn't go over too good with me.

        I can think for myself and consider each option about my own health....this one is not allowing any consideration for my other health issues like my heart or brain. 
        He treats only one & I must decide his way....oh no...next!

        Talk with you soon
