Poisoned Purple Pen

by Purple Catching Up

Rated: GC · Book · Opinion · #1591550

One writer's journey

She sat down at her old wooden desk, pen at the ready. Her thoughts raced. What shall I write today? Tilting her head to the side, a small smile tugged at the corner of her mouth before enveloping her delicate face. The purple ink began to fill the once blank sheet, each stroke a labor of pure joy as the words flowed from her mind, her heart, her very soul.

My Dreams...

to write of romance and endless love
to love without boundaries
to learn from past mistakes
to laugh with all my heart
to be the woman I am meant to be

TODAY...

I will reach for the stars

Will not give up

Will give all that I have

Dare to dream the impossible dream

For anything in this life is possible

<---I am blown away by this

In response to "Accident Prone?"

My daughter-in-law injured her left hand middle finger and it turned out to be a severed ligament. She too wore a splint for months. She joked that she could give that middle finger salute to everyone and anyone. Her finger stayed curled for a long time, but it has healed now. Accidents are inconvenient and yes, painful. Hand injuries are especially grievous and vexating. Happy to hear your leg spontaneously righted itself. Sending healing vibes your way.

I'm glad your second injury healed itself. The human body is indeed a wonderful thing.

I hope you heal quickly and fully from your ring finger injury. I wonder if you caught your ring on something. I did just that many years ago. Didn't tear a ligament, but did some other damage.

GPS when my husband is driving but for me primarily photos. I take lots of pictures of my cats and my grandchildren.

Same here - My phone is my camera, GPS, Bank card, Travel Agent, 24 hour store, MP3 player, social organizer, Encyclopedia, Calculator, Take Away Delivery Service, as well as communication device. The one thing I don't do much on my phone is come on WDC

- it's more time consuming and difficult to type on a phone especially adding emoticons!

Me too! I did not rush to own and use a cellphone, but once I had one it became indispensable. Like you say, it holds and does everything! Mine stores thousands of photos most of which are the four grandgiggles. I also bank online with it. I have never played games on it nor do I store music tracks. Haha! The landline phone is indeed vintage. Who would have imagined a pocket device could contain so much?

I hope your finger will feel much better soon!

I am so behind as well.

Thank you so much. I am glad my words hit all the right buttons. I was giggling as I wrote this.

Almost party time! I agree, it's way better to be positive and to find cause for cheer wherever and whenever we can!

No Halfway

With a ligament tear at the knuckle of my ring finger of my right hand, typing has become a right pain in my ass. I am trying to be creative, but damn if I don't keep forgetting about the buddy bands strapped to my pinky and ring finger, and just try typing like normal.

I have never been good at halfway, or hunting and pecking. If I thought my finger looked deformed before wearing these things, it looks worse now. There are definitely indentions where the straps sit, and my knuckle is swollen, but I won't lie—it does feel better having the support.

Here's hoping I can keep it up for the next seven weeks

.

I've been on an 80s listening kick lately. I long for the past, when the world made sense to me.

As far as I can see, every day is a new what in the actual F did he just say? Brain freeze.

Who elected this deranged lunatic anyway?
