Daily Prompt: Impossibility
“Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” – the White Queen, Alice in Wonderland.
What are the six impossible things you believe in?
A Skinny Me. I believe I will magically wake up in the morning weighing what I weighed when I was first married. Obviously, magic is impossible.
Winning the Lottery! Ha! I don’t even win at Bingo.
Lollygagging. That means staying in bed with a good book, a Danish pastry, lotsa crumbs and coffee. Ha!
Spring in Full Bloom. O.k., I know it’s on the way and there are signs. “But I want what I want when I want it.” I want to wake up to the tulips and the redbuds and the green green grass at home – NOW!
The Fountain of Youth. Yes, I know that’s truly impossible, but there are the little fountains of youth in skin creams, makeup, hair gels and Spanx. I am also the supreme tester of every vitamin on the market. So far, my hair grows greyer and the frown lines deeper but I still believe in the Fountain(s) of Youth.
A Four Pound Lobster Dinner by the Sea. After all, it’s mostly shell right? And if I have it by the sea, it means I will be on a superb vacation. I’m already packed.
