Silas's honest paragraph

                                                  The over used expression

There is a word that I hear nearly 10 times a day. This word is the reason we are not meeting here today. Yes, I believe that it is a good idea to social distance, but why don’t we take our minds off of this pandemic for at least an hour. All I See is memes about this word. Yeah, you know what I’m talking about and that’s why I’ve decided not to say it. So far I’ve lasted 6 days without saying this word.

  1. Silas you have a fun twist here - not trying to say THE WORD (: I agree this is a hard season and much has changed but I am trying each day to find the beauty around me and the blessing in this time of a slower pace and more time at home. Theresa

Different Views of Spring

                                                               (Olivia and Chloe)              Spring is a fun season for both me and my cat. We both view it differently. I'll start with my cat. First, her name is Chloe. Each day, she dreams that I will let her outside to frolic in the green grass and murder one or two or three birds, just like the good old days. Let me tell you, it got old of seeing feathers on our lawn- even worse was cleaning up the mess. You know, dead birds can't clean up after themselves. Chloe has a mind of her own. She expects someone will do what she says. Whatever that is. After I stopped releasing my cat to do as she pleased- kill animals, leave her messes on people's yards, (that includes dead animals) and trespass in backyards- I decided what she does want. ...

My Cat-Dog

My Cat- Dog by Olivia I’m on a case to figure out if I own cat-dog. I think my cat is turning into one! Here’s my evidence so far. My Chloe (that’s my cat’s name) often scratches at the door to be let out. “Squirrel! Squirrel!” she tells me. At first, I don’t believe her. I decide to check it out. “I declare! There really is a squirrel!” I tell her. Sometimes, she pulls herself along a carpeted floor with her front paws. I bet she’s too in love with the floor to leave it. I’ve seen my cousin’s corgi do something like that before, except I don’t think he was in love with the floor. I have another suspicion. My cat-dog chases her tail! I’ve definitely seen a dog do that. Well, I guess she doesn’t chase her tail, but she does bite it! Sometimes she even growls at it. “Ooh! Ooh!” she tells me. “My tail is moving! It’s wiggling! It’s so exciting! I must get it! I must get it! I’m a cat-dog so I must catch my tail!” This is so weird for me. It must stop. Hmm. Perhaps, No…. Wait………Y...

Plum on a plate the haunted farm

                          Plum on a Plate                          the Haunted Farm One day plum who was a plum, adventurer and a little bit of a detective was invited to a farm were his uncle Julius worked. He arrived at the farm, Bob and Julius greeted him. Bob exclaimed, “I thought you could help, strange things were happening here. Dead cows and calves have been walking at night,” he paused to take a breath, “and all sorts of broken machinery have been crawling and rolling, destroying things but the barn, corral, and the house.” Julius spoke, “There must be a source.” Bob pronounced, “The only way that can stop them is to destroy them.” All of a sudden they heard screeching, and saw a tractor crawling towards them. Bob implied, “Let’s go into my house.” Once all of them were inside the house, they heard screeching and banging. “Do you have any machi...
