Linda continues to serve our hostess extraordinary. Jezzie G provided the word of the day. Your prompt for JusJoJan January 8th 2023, is “friendship.” Use the word “friendship” any way you’d like. Have fun! Visit JezzieG’s blog to read his post and say hello. HERE are the rules & ping back.

Friendship reminds me of Girl Scouts, sitting in a circle, singing in rounds “Make new friends but keep the old, one is silver & the other gold”. Ya buddy, now that’s the stuff. I just strolled down memory lane. I’m positive that I hit the friendship lottery. Talk amongst yourselves. I’m verklempt today. Not to worry though, my emotions are of the happy variety.

As always, more to come.

HERE are the rules and ping back. The prompt is the Paisley underground. Thanks Jim for hosting. I picked Prince Rogers Nelson, She’s Always in My Hair. That guitar though. Hope you enjoy.

Whenever I feel like givin’ up
Whenever my sunshine turns to rain
Whenever my hopes and dreams
Are aimed in the wrong direction
She’s always there
Tellin’ me how much she cares
She’s always in my hair

She’s always in my hair
My hair

Whenever I feel like not too great at all
Whenever I’m all alone
And even if I hit the wrong notes
She’s always in my boat
She’s always there
Tellin’ me how much she cares
She’s always in my hair

She’s always in my hair
My hair

Maybe I’ll marry her (Maybe I’ll marry her)
Maybe I won’t (Maybe I won’t)
Maybe I will not (Maybe I will not)
Lemme tell ya (Even if I was a gigolo)
If I was a gigolo all my life (All my life)
She’d still be there (She’d still be there)
Tellin’ me just how much she really cares (She cares)
She’s always in my hair

She’s always in my hair
My hair

Listen
Whenever I feel like givin’ up
Whenever my sunshine turns to rain
Whenever my hopes and dreams
Are aimed in the wrong direction
She’s always there
Tellin’ me just how much she cares (Tellin’ me how much she cares)
Tellin’ me… she’s always in my hair (Always in my hair)

She’s always in my hair
My hair

She’s always in my hair

Sunday Reflections: A Week in Review ~ 1/8/23

I’m having a crisis of faith & making stuff up but still I power through. My pain is about the same which means still there. I take any small moments of relief I can get. This morning’s grocery run went off without a hitch & dare I say walking was therapeutic & for a brief time, nothing hurt. Another nice release is the extra writing which comes with #JusJoJan. WP has their own version called Bloganuary but I like the prompts from Linda’s followers better. Just sayin’.

Covid finally invaded our bubble with Pony getting the dreaded Rona from a NYE gathering of three. His friend that passed it along got it a work, in retail, he assumes. His friend’s wife has tested negative this whole time. Weird how the virus jumps around. You’d think for sure his wife would’ve caught it too. Guess her immune system was all not me mother fucker. Pony is better, no fever since early Thursday morning. He’ll test again sometime today. His work is making him stay away for 11 full days but if the test is still positive today, the count begins again. Oy vey! Better safe than sorry. Okay now for a roll call.
