Hi Bindu, I had started the project and on day five, my blog went down for a further six days and only got it back up and running yesterday. If I can catch up would it still be ok to be included in the project? I have found some great blogs and great people through the project and I would love to have completed it.

Prompt. I have never been prompt. Occasionally early, frequently tardy, but most often in the nick.
Like the time I was walking purposefully across a wooden walkway touching with fingertips the plumes of grasses on either side when I felt a tickle on my foot. I stopped, and noticed a brilliant black and green dragonfly had just touched my newly scarlet toenails, brushed my flipflops and zoomed off through drifting double-cherry petals. I wondered if she, like I was rushing to get to “The Store With Beautiful Things” before they closed. Where else would a dragonfly shop but a shop owned by dragons.
As I continued onward, I noticed a familiar scent. Turning at the end of the walkway I discovered a Magnolia, covered with those wonderful waxy-white, pungent blooms. Of course I had to stop to smell. Magnolia is a rose after all, and its perfume as intoxicating as the summery gin and lemon I don’t drink anymore.
But I was dallying. The real purpose of my jaunt, besides a quick foray into the dragon’s shop, was my appointment with Holly who thinks of early as “on time.” Holly is the most amazing psychic I know, able to read minute details about the future and the past. When told me on my first visit that I’d gotten into trouble for hiding Lady Chatterly’s Lover behind the dictionary when I was 14, I knew she’d give me more about my future than the usual, “I can see by the map of your palm that you will be popular with your friends, and will travel far.” Holly’s even a great fashion guru. A little harsh though, at this reading she told me my newest outfit looked like a badly made, Butteric-pattern housedress–and I’d be better off buck naked.
At any rate, when I finally returned home I realized I might be too late to make dessert for dinner. This was especially disappointing as I had just bought beautiful heartwood mixing bowls and utensils from the Dragons, and Holly had shared her early crop of Granny Smith’s.
So there you go, occasionally early, frequently tardy, most often in the nick–but never, ever prompt.
If you are tired of being a wallflower, or going around on the same old gerbil wheel, or watching everyone else have fun in biznez, order this book. Read more...
