The number of times you tried to shame me, yelling that I wasn't paying attention while you explained mixed fractions, your voice getting louder and louder, while of part of me withered and went numb was too many times to count.

The geography of your face when you laughed is what I miss most. Your eyes sparkled. And grief was at rest.

Morning all! When I flew from my then home in Tenerife to meet an agent, my kids hoped I'd become rich and famous. Unfortunately he turned out to be a scammer, which is partly why I have self-published my books. At least I can trust me! Today's word is
#famous

Good morning! I read over 300 posts yesterday, many referring to creature comforts, possibly due to the weather! Apologies if I missed yours. Today's word, another subject heading from my xword help book, is
