Six Word Fridays: First

Our topic this week: FIRST. First try? First in space? Firstly…


...Thanks once again to Melissa for her ongoing inspiration ...
 
If at first you don't succeed
try try again, the saying goes.
That, perhaps, is an excellent thought.
My first marriage -- not a success.
First semester in college -- academic probation
First ride on a bike - CRASH
First dates after divorce -- spectacular failures
First outfit today -- ruined via canine
So I will try try again
Clothing changed -- stopped dating -- ride bike
And marriage? Why not?  First do-over :)
So I will try try again!
 
*****************
 
If it weren't for this exercise in creativity today, my mood may have been foul all day.  I really liked my first outfit today -- and I don't own a dog.  Thanks, neighbor, for letting him run off-leash in a leash area and for being unable to control your dog in the FIRST place ...  boooooooooooooooooooo

I love your can-do attitude Athena! Nothing better than staying committed to making things work.

I can hear your "booooooooooooo" :o) and have been known to do so as well. Sometimes you have to just let it out, it's like a cow (you're not a cow) out to pasture that can not hold on to his "moooooooooooo" because it comes from deep within (at least that's what I've come to believe) :o) all together now....BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hope you have a good Friday!
