Hello, hello! It's another beautiful Sunday on this lovely planet we call Earth. I apologize for the absence of a Friday post.

Prompt 159-Introvert or Extrovert

Prompt 153-Mom
What is your mom like? My mom is like fire. She is warm and comforting like the hearth during the bitter, frozen winters.
