Manitoba looks a lot like that right now.

Me every morning when I wake up: "There's no way I can write a haiku today. Too busy, too tired."

Me 2 hours later: "Don't be a little ****y. Write some haikus."

Me 6 hours later: "How come it didn't get more likes? That was a brilliant haiku!"

And the cycle repeats....

I just write one every night before bed, then edit when I schedule all the posts. But it does delay my bedtime for a while sometimes 😅

As to your other comment, I’m going to start posting these prompts outside of Substack to see if people will pop in and check them out. It would be cool to have more engagement.

I came up with two, though they're obviously very similar.

Call me Silver Storm

Or the Copper Penny Kid

Coinstar in my sights

Silver clanking storm

Poverty papered over

Coinstar turns profit.

As always, you went in a direction I would never have expected! I love these.

Well, my day got far, far away! I’m only now circling back. Sometimes life gets like my dog with a new toy trying to get the squeaker out. That darn silver storm is supposed to be coming our way in the next few days.

Life can be very persistent. Write me a late one when the silver storm comes 😌
