  • Have the results of the US Presidential election left you feeling relieved, apprehensive, hopeful, or some other emotion? I am both relieved and hopeful that things in the US will return to some sort of normal as far as government and having someone to look to for being “in charge”. I don’t always vote Democratic for various reasons but this time around I just couldn’t see Trump back in office. There are tons of reasons why but one of the main reasons has been the separation of families at the border.

  • Have you been surprised at all by the emotions and reactions of others regarding the results? I am not surprised by all the emotion or reactions. I think that Trump has bad such a bad impression on everyone in this country and around the world that just knowing he will not be president in a few weeks is something to be happy about. I know so many people wanted him re-elected but he doesn’t care about anyone but himself and even they need to see it. Anyhow, seeing the joy, dancing, celebrating…it was sort of like the USA used to be.

Thanks Jim for participating in the Simply 6 challenge!

A Unique Title For Me

Emily Dickinson once said, “November always seems to me the Norway of the year.”  I have never been to Norway, but I did go to Sweden which is close by, however I went there in the late summer, so the weather was nice.  There were lots of signs around warning drivers about moose which is both plural and singular, so there is no such thing as meese, or mooses.  It seems that the moose get drunk eating fermented berries and you don’t want to run into them with your cars.  I was in Scotland in the winter and it was cold up there and the days were very short and because of that people got depressed and they went to pubs to drink.

I was out in Milwaukee a few years back visiting relatives in August and I decided to take my wife out to see the Milwaukee Brewers play…

  2. You can either use one of the prompts (photo or written) or you can free-write.
  3. Get ready and write for 6 minutes, that is it! Can you write a complete story? Can you think of a new Sonnet? Can you write 400 words? 400? 500? There are no restrictions on what kind of writing you do, but you should try to be actively writing for six minutes.

Thank you for participating!
