My friend Sara, aka Gitzen Girl experimented with Lisa-Jo aka The Gypsy Mama's challenge to write, UNEDITED, for 5 minutes. Each Friday Lisa-Jo posts a prompt and you write whatever comes up from it for ONLY 5 minutes. This challenge, just like Sara's YOU CREATE challenge struck a chord with me.
Today's prompt is Five Years Ago.
The timer is set, so here goes:
Who could have imagined that life would look so different for me. Five years ago, my parents still lived within an easy drive. I had only two young grandchildren and I was working hard at my photography business. The Professor was unemployed and I was providing the small income we got by on. And I was slogging through therapy, having discovered my misery could be changed through hard work on myself.
I now have four lovely grandchildren and a new daughter-in-law. My parents are now in the loving care of my sister, the Fashionista, a long-ish plane ride away. I now spend most days making messes in my art studio since physical challenges brought my business to a screaming halt. And the Professor is, well, now --- The Professor.
RING-G-G-G
Yikes, that was more difficult than I imagined due to my challenges with the passing of time! Hopefully, next Friday will be easier.
Thanks for dropping by.
