    November CSR Discussion Day: Ash's Marriage Trigger by Thirdly

    By Cia

    This month I featured a story that I enjoyed reading by Thirdly, and I hope you did too! Odd, as I did not relate to the character (having married at 19) but I could just... get how intensely the characters were feeling at times. I always enjoy that and consider it the mark of a great writer. What did you enjoy about Ash's Marriage Trigger? Make sure you share your thoughts below, after you read this interview Thirdly did for me!  Do you eat your fruits and vegetables? Mostly vegetable

I'm mad! 😠 I'm irate! 😠 I'm absolutely livid! 😠  So someone told on me!! Told the US that I mistakenly took US Thanksgiving last week instead of the upcoming one. Now my green card lottery entry has been cancelled over it 😮 !!! I can think of one 'tuckian that would have reported me. No not you @astone2292   Okay, just kidding.

😮  Ever wake up in the morning and see something and know you have to do something about it? No, I'm not referring to that, guys .  I did that this morning. I opened the fridge and I have to admit it was pretty bare. The thing is when you see your bare fridge, you probably going to notice it needs a really good cleaning! So there I am at 8 this morning with everything fitting onto one shelf, and pulling out the other 3 shelves, the two crispers and meat tray, and all the door pockets.
