Honestly, we rarely do these, but there are a few people we will at times do them with, and our friend April is one of them...
This one we thought of as a writing challenge, and what follows is what we started in a comment box and it took off from there...LOL...ENJOY !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay ladies I thought this would be easier to pass along rather than sending it in message form. so follow along and lets see how big we can get this.... Invite all of your girlfriends and lets see how far we get this to go.............
We are playing a game. Someone proposed that we GIRLS do something special on Facebook to help with Breast Cancer Awareness. Its easy, and Id like you to join us to help it spread. Last year it was ......about writing the color of the bra that your were wearing in your Fb status and it left men wondering for days why the girls had random colors as their status. This year it has to do with your relationship status. You will where you are, by posting one of the codes below. Remember - don't reply to this message just type your 1 word response in your status box on your profile. Then cut and paste this whole message into a new message and send it along to your female friends....
Blueberry: I'm single
Pineapple: its complicated
Raspberry: I'm a touch and go woman
Apple: Engaged
Cherry: In a relationship
Banana: I'm married
Avocado: I'm the "other one"
Strawberry: Cant find the right one
Lemon: Wish I was single
Grape: wants to get married.
The bra game reached TV, lets get this one to do the same, and show everyone how powerful women are ..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LOL so off we went into a prompt for ourself... the things that come to our head...
Knowing us as well as we do...tee hee hee

Love Emails... check this one out !!
I've learnt that...
- you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.
- no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.
- it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
- it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts.
- you can do something in an instant that will give you a heartache for life.
- no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides.
- you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
- we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
- there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it.
- true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
- just because someone doesnt love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
- maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.
- no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
- no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
- just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other.And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.
- we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
- you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
- there are many ways of falling and staying in love.
- no matter how many friends you have, if you are their pillar, you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most.
- the people you care most about in life are taken from you to soon.
- although the word "love" can have many different meanings, it loses value when overly used.
- love is not for me to keep, but to pass on to the next person I see.
- there are people who love you dearly but just don't know how to show it.
- even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.
- every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch-holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
- I still have a lot to learn......
ENJOY

Today's Prompt is Monotetra
The monotetra contains four lines in monorhyme. Each line is in tetrameter (four metrical feet) for a total of eight syllables.The last line contains two metrical feet, repeated. It can have one stanza or many stanzas.
Poem format:
OURS IS ...
Tulips waving, Chica-dee's sing
weather warming, Robin takes wing
lazily swaying on our swing
first signs of Spring, first signs of Spring
Crocus open to catch the sun
Hummingbirds return has begun
Freesia scent is second to none
time for some fun, time for some fun
Children's laughter filling the air
gingerly playing without a care
squealing and screeching everywhere
we sit and stare, we sit and stare
Spring is here, we see it first hand
longing to feel our toes in sand
trips to the beach are in demand
life is so grand, life is so grand
YOUR TURN
ENJOY

It's raining today !!
When I went to bed last night, the rain had just started, it sounds so loud at times on our trailers tin roof ! This morning it was down into the 30's and it started to hail, almost looked like snow and it lasted a long time on our truck ! So pretty and yet we are so glad that we are not six feet under it! California is a lovely place to live.
We spent a few more hours on the rock walls we are building, we have to take a week off, for the other yards we do need us too, but here are the latest pictures...

Showing off Spring
The flowers in our garden are so pretty that the statues and such have a whole new look to them, so of course we have to take lots of pictures... they are my only children after all.
We have some picture perfect places in our yard, bias as we may be...LOL
Most of the things we have are from friends and family members, placed in gardens planted with them in mind. There are some that we got at yard sales or from neighbors moving (and not wanting to have to pack them) No matter where they end up coming from they all have a place in our garden.
ENJOY

Marriage changes passion.
Suddenly you're in bed with a relative.
