Here are the prompts that are posted on Mama’s Losin’ It’s blog.  I have done this a few times in the past and since I am having a hard time figuring out what to blog about lately I decided that I would give these a shot and write about one of them if not all of them.

The Prompts:

1.) Describe something you’re proud of.
2.) Tell me your most humorous wedding experience
3.) 10 reasons why you can’t sleep at night
4.) Describe an experience that you wish you could shake from your memory.
5.) Write a love letter to the object of your affection.

For this post I am going to write about #3.
10-My cats won’t go to sleep at night.
9- My family is so damn loud.
8-My husband calls really late at night
7-Worried about work
6-Worried about what is going to happen with the MS.
5-Not tired
4-Mad at the world
3-Plotting my revenge on who ever mad me mad that day
2-Up reading blogs and commenting
1- I am a true insomniac

There is my list.  I am sure if I gave it more time I could come up with a whole ton of reasons.

I LOVE THIS… MY friend’s GRANDKIDS MADE UP THEIR OWN VERSION OF GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER…… THIS SO REMINDS ME OF THAT!!

The COMPUTER SWALLOWED GRANDMA

The computer swallowed grandma.
Yes, honestly its true!
She pressed ‘control’ and ‘enter’
And disappeared from view.

It devoured her completely,
The thought just makes me squirm.
She must have caught a virus
Or been eaten by a worm.

I’ve searched through the recycle bin
And files of every kind;
I’ve even used the Internet,
But nothing did I find.

In desperation, I asked Google
My searches to refine.
The reply from him was negative,
Not a thing was found ‘online.’

So, if inside your ‘In-box,’
My Grandma you should see,
Please ‘Copy,”Scan’ and ‘Paste’ her
And send her back to me.

Imaginary Friend

Lasso me this.
I want a short piece of fiction from you!
piece = short story, a page in a novel,  a dialogue, a play, a song-  whatever you want.  Just something. 
Pick one of the prompts:

There are no rules. Take  one of the prompts and make it your fictitious own. Remember it’s a prompt:  just a springboard!

1. Write the autobiography or memoirs of an imaginary friend
2.  Create a story around the worst superhero power you can think of
3.  A new mom in the future finds her great grandmother’s or grandmother’s blog

4. Start your piece with the opening line “Everyone has an inside joke. She was mine.”

I am going to write about #1.  Here goes nothing.  This will probably suck but at least I am trying it!

Hi my name is Mandi.  I am Margaret’s imaginary friend.  I have been around for years and even though she is now 18 I don’t plan on going anywhere!  I have helped her get through some of the hardest things she has even gone through.  She has never had to be alone because I am always with her and inside her head telling to do things and talking her down from doing stupid things.  A little bit about me.  I first came into her life when she was very little and had a hell of a home life.  I was always there to comfort her and make sure she knew everything would be o.k.  She has tried many times to get rid of me but it never works because she always comes back to me when she is struggling or when her life takes a nose dive.  I wish I could do more than just be a part of her head but I guess there isn’t really much that I can do for her.  I will always be there when she needs me and fade into the back ground when she doesn’t need me. 

Well there you go!  That is all I could come up with!
