HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
It's been a while since I last blogged.
I have completed my Grandad's memoirs- hurrah. He was delighted with them so I am very pleased to have achieved what I set out to do. It has been wonderful finding out so much about him and his time in the war and his working life. I hope the rest of the family enjoy it.
Term starts for me tomorrow and I have just about got the planning finished. I never plan too far ahead as it changes on a daily basis depending on the needs of the children; but it still takes what seems like an age.
I am now going to edit my nanowrimo in earnest and see if I can manage to get a few more of these 100wcgu completed now.
I also must get the decorating done. My lovely hubby and son worked out that if I keep on the present rate it will take me nine years to finish so I need to hurry up a bit!! Will do some after lunch...
Anyway, enough prevarication.
This week's prompt from Julia is
... you said you’d do WHAT?….

WEEK 72
Clouds of smoke swirled as Big Jake exhaled. He stared penetratingly
at Mickey.
“You said you’d do what?”
“Well, uh, I sorta thought it would help the guys.”
“You did, did ya?”
“Jonny said he’d help. ”
“Hell no, it’s the
first I’ve heard of it Boss. We gotta cut him loose, know what I mean?”
“Now c’mon guys, it’ll be cool. We’ll be outta there before
you know it. All I need is...”
Big Jake leant forward and blew a cloud of cigar smoke in
Mickey’s face. “All you need kid is to go back and tell them you’re not gonna
do it.”
