stalled
Stalled computer. that’s the first thing that came into my mind. Now that I think about it, stalled car seems to be more appropriate. Stalled. stopped. my writing is now stalled.

leathery
Leathery? what a weird word. what comes into my mind? leathery skin. old people. old people have leathery skin or maybe people who spent too much time in the sun and then they became old.. leathery bag, leathery, such an unusual word.

husband
Oh my gosh I have one of those! The very first time that I saw him I knew that he was the one so fine so perfect but something went wrong somewhere and now though I still love him he just does not understand me nor does he care to it seems. Oh well life is life

fawn
I’ve already done fawn–hoped for something new. A dog, coyote, perhaps a rabbit.

childish deer. spotted and very appealing in appearance. Mother will be near by and hopefully, no cars speeding along will meet up with soft, colored, spotted fawn.

dilemma
i had a dilemma the other day, i didnt know what to do with myself. The problem was not one that i had faced before, and far too embarrassing to talk to anyone else about. It was just me. It was unbearable how alone i felt. Finally when i least expected it the answer became very clear and simple.

basic
I looked around the kitchen for something, anything to kill him with- something simple and basic- so it would look like an accident- and that’s when I spied the chainsaw.

cheap
In our house- cheap was a positve word, a good one, nothing to be ashamed of- “It was a bargain”. But in his house cheap meant “lower in quality” and beneath them- which is why we broke up.

charge
Charge: To lead the way. To ask for payment. To take control. To re-engergise. To be wide and excited. To run and push and ram forward. Charge!

coward
Lies are a clear sign of fear. To fear is to coward against your own judgment. Own up to it and the need to lie will disappear. ABRA CADABRA! Take that Dorothy!!

fragrance
He smelled like Irish Spring and Juicy Fruit gum and I loved him with the ferocity that only a 14 year old girl has.

The best smell is the one my mother emanates. She has this distinct scent, her own fragrance. It comforts me and reminds me of a safe place. I have always loved the scent of something great ever since my first wiff.

alarm
The dread that sounded in my bones when I realized that they were gone

pills
Oh Dear- what we do without pills? We’d be crazy, tired, jitty, bloated, headachy, congested, hot flashy, pained, achy breaky, constipated, and generally whack-a-doodle. What else do I need to say?

suicide
wrench
She was a wrench of a woman. A real pain in the wrench. We knew it. SHe knew it. And none of us cared anyway.

SHe was a wrench- a wrench in the neck. Everybody knew it, especially her. We all loved her anyway

basement
down the stairs all you see is darkness. How scary, to think that someplace nestled deep below your house could be so mysterious. our houses are supposed to be places of comfort, of being grounded, of knowing where you are. but the basement is different: the basement is a place where your home can keep secrets.

endless
the night seemed endless and the noises continued. Even her dog was unsettled by the bangs and rattles. “When will the morning come?”

potato
scarf
something you wear around your neck especially during the colder weather. You can also knit or crotchet one. There are many new and fun wools that have lots of different colors and textures.

Wool, warmth for the cold winds of winter. Brightly colored for ease of parents locating children in the snow.

dispute
peace is the one word that represents something greater than all of us. if we lived in peace with each other we would be completely happy there would be no forces trying to constantly put us down.

vulture
The vulture sat on the edge of the cliff looking down on his prey. Below was a cute little bunny just hopping along.
