Today’s Jumble haiku:
ReplyDelete(Washington’s army codes were timed to change every three months, when the flags were seen to repeat, so, in order to… )
“Deter the Hessian!”
… Thad shoved the prior
ensign, to signal the end
of the fall season.

BTW, I had a late C&L post, I'll repost here
ReplyDelete[Nora has asked the two for a pre-marriage talk]
"Lois, it is my hope that we can defuse the prior issues with your mother.
What's has passed is in the past. Nothing's final, the new you she should discover
Perhaps a little shove from me will awaken a new season of family bliss"
Reconciliation is the prize we seek, love reawakened, sealed with a kiss."
[Charles has something to add]
"Chet, ironically I knew your father from my time in the Navy
He was a snappy Ensign at the time though my recollection is hazy.
Holding on to old resentments much like unwanted, unneeded possessions
Isn't positive. Perhaps I can intervene and arrange a healing therapy session."

"Fair Friar"
ReplyDeletePrior to becoming a friar
Fred had sung in a choir.
He was happy to make a confession
that he loved his new profession
though there was no logical reason
why he lost some of his possessions
by gambling every season.
But no way was he going to be shoved
from a job he totally loved.
(Sometimes the Jumble words create an illogical verse)
FLN: Because Wilbur reposted his late post, I’d better repost my reply…
ReplyDelete“ Well, whatever probs Nora & Charles may have, WC, they are offering their good services in intervening with Chet & Lois’ families.
That can only go well—right?
What’s passed has passed, or so the slogan goes!

Don’t let the words boss you around, Misty. You’re in the same position as Lewis Carroll’s Humpty Dumpty:
ReplyDelete“When I use a word… it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.”
Your friar’s backstory may be missing, but you know he’s got one. We all do.

Hope Thad survived his shove without any retribution, Ol' Man Keith. And I'll keep doing my best with whatever words pop up.
ReplyDeleteWilbur, that's great that Nora and Charles are both willing to give Lois and Chet some help with problems each one seems to be having with a parent. Hope it all works out since this is especially important at this time of the year.
Busy today helping a family member with medical appointment.
ReplyDeleteWC- we matched on W guesses three and four.
Enjoyed your contributions.
Purr Obsession
ReplyDeleteThe spoiled cat was sleek
His owner was a pushover
And indulged him every week
Prior to this winter season,
A cat condo was installed,
With a wooden sign
“King of the Castle - it’s Mine”.
LOL, Misty, Thad was doing the shoving, so no need to worry about him.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, I think GW gave him a medal for timely changing the code!
Semaphore can be tricky if parties aren’t on the same page.
CEh! ~ The sign is purr-fect! A cat would expect no less.
Good thing he picked a literate human. Some cats have been known to settle for the first person to hand over a meal.
