Words for Wednesday -- Pure Nonsense

This meme was started by Delores a long time ago.  Troubles led her to bow out, but the meme was too much fun to let go, and now Words for Wednesday is provided by a number of people and has become a movable feast with Elephant's Child as our coordinator.

  Essentially the aim of this meme is to encourage us to write.  Each week we are given some prompts. These prompts can be words, phrases, music or images.
  What we do with those prompts is up to us: a short story, prose, a song, a poem, or treating them with ignore ...
  We can use some or all of the prompts, and mixing and matching is encouraged.

  Some of us put our creation in comments on the post, and others post on their own blog. This fun meme includes cheering on the other participants.

  And the more the merrier goes here as well, so if you are posting on your own blog then please tell us in the comments, so that all other participants, can come along and applaud.

Messymimi, who is supplying the prompts for the Wednesdays of November has given us:


bargain
outlook
belief
margin
differ
wagon
    and/or
outlet
glasses
modest
letter
social
lift

This time around I have written some nonsense text. Once again I'm using the words in the order they were given.

The bargain on the house changed my whole outlook. I was lucky beyond belief, and I even had an economical margin larger that first planned. My wife begged to differ, and would rather had moved into a covered wagon, like the pioneers did.

It turned out that the outlets in the house did not work. I put on my glasses to have a closer look at the Electricity meter, and noticed the surprisingly modest number of units used.

Next day a letter arrived from the Social Security Administration. They had discovered that the house belonged to them, and the day after tomorrow a lift would arrive and carry the house away. We could keep the plot.

  1. Grinning. And, as usual, impressed that you give yourself an additional challenge while using the prompts.
