Five Minute - Friday - REPEAT



Five Minute Friday



Welcome to Friday!  We have just completed another 31 day writing challenge using the FMF Free Writes.  I am almost finished; just one more to write and publish!!

Today is our first Friday after the challenge; and I am determined to make it to each week's Five Minute Friday with a post to share!

Today's word is:  REPEAT

Have you ever felt that each day is the repeat of the day before?  That your life is in some kind of rut, nothing new or changed as each day runs into the next?

Well, that's not how my life is!!  Each day may be a repeat in that it's busy and I'm running around like crazy and though it may be fun it's just so busy I don't know which end is up or down?

Yeah!  That kind of day!!!  And, perhaps that last sentence will give you an idea of how crazy things have been!

No worries!  It's the life I have chosen; or been chosen for?  Either way, some days do tend to run into the next without any memories of what day it really is!

The days I love to repeat are the ones spent with family and/or friends.  When we gather to celebrate someone's birthday or a special holiday.  When we share a meal and maybe even some presents.

Those days when I can hear the laughter of my grandchildren as they run from one room to the other playing with the cousins they don't see very often.  Or a family visit to the zoo:



The days when I hear the conversations of my adult children, discussing this new venture or how their lives are going in their new house or new job.

Even the days spent with friends, creating cards and scrapbook layouts.  Sharing what we have been doing in the "how many days since we last crafted together"?  Or helping each other with our craft ideas or upcoming events.

Our lives get so busy that sometimes we do leave out the things that make us happy or joyful.  Those are the things that make our memories.  Those are the things that we want to repeat!

How about you?  Are you ready to repeat that special day?

Let's do that!!

And share with me in the comments what day you want to repeat!
