Decisions ... promises ...

Posted by Claudia Moser on 5:38 AM in , , ,










P.S. This entry is done under the inspiration of this week's theme from The Writers' Post, namely Atmosphere

Jenny's instructions were: 'I want you To CREATE an atmosphere in your post this week. Use your words to pull your audience in--give them a sense of their surroundings, and create a memorable scene with an atmosphere that they will hopefully not soon forget get by reading your post. You can still do this--even if you write about everyday topics and don't delve into fiction. I think it will be fun!!'

my question is: did I manage? :)

I would say Yes, you did, if your atmosphere was the humor of not making decisions ever and promises are just ideas! lmbo
Great imagination and very unique! <3 it.


Well, I thought it was funny and it made me smile, does that count?


Unique and quirky and very funny...! Oh I don't know I couldn't make up my mind....! ; )


The one where there are signs for the workers to hold up reminds me of my husbands workplace. A few years ago a manager tried a new way of running the place to save time. Not only did it not save time, it created an enormous backlog of work. Now Dan has a new manager and he wants to do the same thing they had to quit doing. They told the manager it didn't work before, but he doesn't care!


@Jo - I just wanted a play of cartoons based on the first quote :) happy it went well!
@Sarah - but of course, the main important thing!
@Sush - if it's funny I am glad!
@Belle - exactly, this seems to be a very common 'disease', I don't understand why people are not able to learn from the past!


Works for me...and for the record...I thought this was really funny! Thanks for sharing!


@Susan - thank you for your kind words!


Yes, you absolutely managed. Great collection of cartoons and sayings.


@Langley - happy I managed!

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
