Happy Birthday Bleu. Here is to another year of wishes and great times. Enjoy.

Joann is turning into a nice writer with some interesting twists to any given topic. Now if we can only get her to write more and publish. Would be nice to see what sort of response others have for her abilities outside the circle of those who regularly read the prompts.

Hi all, Sorry haven't been around much. Cold pretty much put me out of commission. Tim if you need to talk this is the place. Rob all I can say is hang in there and if you need to talk we are here. Wayne

Would you like it with bacon in that mac and cheese with a side of burgers?

Ashes- feel free to talk. That is what this thread is for. Yettie - There are a few of is who have become the caretaker to parent. We just have to remember to take care of ourselves as well.

At least someone knows who he is. Still like Dick though- whether he is Robin, Nightwing, or Batman. Although my two favorites are Wonder Woman and her sister, Donna Troy.

Welcome Ryan. Glad to have you here. Hope you enjoy it. Greetings as well to the many others who have joined. I'm a bit behind on my welcomes.

DC is where my heart has always been. I think anyone who knows me could tell you that.

Thanks for the review. Glad you found it interesting NNN.

It was meant to leave you guessing. I am glad you enjoyed it. This was a hell of a lot darker than most of my stuff.

I'm glad you enjoyed this. It was a simple prompt story that grew a bit beyond what I had planned. I might come back to it but making no promises.

I want to work smarter, save more, lose some more weight, surprise my friends more, and try hard to keep in touch with those I care about. What story or movie surprised you most this year?

Can I get my drink now?

I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and best wishes go out to you and your family.

You left me with more questions then answers. I hope you are continuing this.

Hey all, Well unfortunately I can be added to that group who found Christmas something to stress over. There wasn't much to celebrate. My cousins were all down south with their mother and children (my cousins are in their fifties and their children in their twenties and thirties now). That left me alone with Dad. The holiday was quiet. He really wasn't in a celebrating type of mood so I basically hid out in my room. My saving grace for the day so I didn't have a complete melt down was I had stored all the gifts my friends had sent me for Christmas. When I felt at my worst I sat down and began to open them one after the other. I'm happy to know people thought of me, and this was one of those times I was ever so grateful to have something to look forward to. Luckily I was never one who needed a lot to make me happy. I get huge pick me up when I get a postcard, card, or letter, so seeing what my friends sent me was a bonus. Besides I am a certified Chocoholic and many of them sent me chocolate. Those simple gifts kept me from focusing on too much on what I am missing. The people who have passed on, the friends I have left behind, my job, and my life in general. The one thing about life you have to be careful of, is getting complacent. I've stopped worrying about me and focused so much on everyone else that for a while my life has become gray. That leaves you feeling drained and wondering if you are worth anything. For me those gifts reminded me of better times, things I need to focus, and reminded me that if I am not happy with how things are it is time to get off my ass and change them. I can't claim I'm happy. I am not a light switch were I go from one to the other. But for the moment I am no longer apathetic and that is better than I have been. Hang in there everyone. New year, new chances, and new opportunities. Wishing you all the best as we start over again with a blank page. Leave your indecisions behind you and move on with your life. Things have got to get better. to those who need them. Wayne
