Springtime in Rivendell
I made my own prompt this week…I couldn’t help myself. The weather here is finally showing the warm, comforting signs of Spring. I can finally shed my pants for skirts, walk barefoot in the grass, and hang out in the house without layers and layers of hoodies and blankets. I have a hard time deciding if I like Spring most, or if I like Fall. Both seasons are mild and full of color.
There’s just something fun about the friendly swish of my skirt against my calves as I take a stroll...and I fully admit that I sometimes walk into my backyard and pretend that it’s really Rivendell. There are dozens (if not hundreds) of birds where I live. They are particularly chipper and active in the Spring, which adds to the entire setting.
It sure is a bummer being cooped up indoors during the week, but daydreaming and wandering around doesn’t exactly earn one money (as much as I’d like to find a job doing just that!). I’m Romanticizing the season, I know! There are stormy days and rainy nights that crop up too…but this is where the Internet comes in, and even through all the slush, it allows us to travel (in a virtual manner) to different worlds.
Don’t be afraid to seize the moment, run around barefoot, and pretend you’re somewhere else. You are never too old to daydream.

She wobbles downtown, teetering along. “On sale! Only 4 left!” the sign read. A size too small, and an inch too high, the red heels sparkle.

Mr. Burple Berry got mixed up in a pair of high heels. Aside from a bruised ego and a little bump on his head, he is otherwise fine. He wobbled in to dazzle us with next week’s prompt, dream.Last week’s story:
