Weekly Wrap Up (May 19 - May 25)


Greetings and salutations from the GA Weekly Wrap Up :) 

For some reason I am feeling giddy today, or maybe even ducky 🦆 ! Why, I have not a clue. My washing machined died on me this morning, and I don't think that should make be feel great. We had another thunderstorm today like the past few days, which I'm not a fan of (look at someone's anthology entries :unsure: ). And I went out to dinner tonight and my medium rare steak came out on the well done side. I'm not the guy to make a big deal and send it back. Just showed everyone else at the table :gikkle: 

So what is the reason? Do you have any ideas? I'm curious as to what you all think would make me feel ducky 🦆. :o 

Enough about my feelings :P Let's move onto more important things, like what happened all this week at the GA News Blog:

Monday, it was nice to see one of our poets who participated in the 2024 NaPoWriMo to get featured in the Signature Author Feature this month:

Tuesday, besides @W_L who has a thing for history? :P 

Wednesday brought Cia around for the Signature Author Excerpt:

Thursday Valkyrie was very quiet as she was speaking about the secret author contest :unsure: Ignore my post pleasssssse:

Friday, Valkyrie let her hair (or her feathers) down to get a little freaky:

 

This weeks Words of the Day, 3 were a bit challenging to me. How about you:

malapropism, marjoram, inkwell, perpendicular, anthropomorphize, rhinoceros, apricate

Could you be giddy because the rain in making the snow finally disappear from the frozen Canadian soil where you live.  After all, May showers bring June flowers up there, doesn't they?

BTW, I would think you're feeling more "Ottery" than "ducky"  :gikkle:
