Missing in Action

3musesmerge.substack.com

Urania straightened her purple dotted hemline. “Thank you for understanding our absence.”

“Last Thursday’s infusion has left us feeling quite a bit under the weather.” Calliope watched raindrops slide down the window glass.

“Only one more chemo to go,” Thalia called from the tub. “We’ve got this! And there will be many sunshine filled days ahead.”


A word from Typist:

Ugh!

Is ugh a word?
Schoolhouse Rock taught me that it’s an interjection… like Wow! Hey! Yow! and Ouch!

Over the weekend I reminded myself that I am enough… just as I am.
You are, too.

[Schoohouse Rock, Interjections] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkAX7Vk3JEw

Innnterjections

Show excitement,

Or emotion.

They're generally set apart from a sentence

By an exclamation point,

Or by a comma when the feeling's not as strong.

That brings back great memories, thanks for the reminder. I was up early to watch cartoons and the Schoolhouse Rock series was sprinkled amongst them. No cares, me and a bowl of cereal and cartoons. What brings back warm fuzzy emotions like that for you?

You got this.

Ugh is such a good descriptor Gail. Take care of yourself - that is enough ox
