the
silly
season
is over
the tinsel
and baubles
packed away.
Fluffy red hats and
wellington boots never
suited the southern hemisphere
anyway. The stores all have their 50%
sales - getting rid of Christmas stock so soon?
Nothing Lasts Forever. Isn’t it sad and heart-breaking
that its all over so quickly?
Until
Next
Year
..
Head on over to G-Man and sign up for Flash Fiction Friday.

One more comment, Ernest Hemingway was once prodded to compose a complete story in six words. His answer, personally felt to be his best prose ever, was "For sale: baby shoes, never used." Some people say it was to settle a bar bet. Others say it was a personal challenge directed at other famous authors.
Thought you might like to know that. Here is one website: http://www.sixwordstories.net/
FYI: Yes, I am blonde but more than just a pretty face....ha ha!
