Linda is dealing with her ailing son so her suggestion for the prompt today is “Ask Someone Else.”
As a mom, that’s an easy one for me. “Go ask your father” is a typical response from me when the kids want to know if they can borrow something, if they need help with their cars, if they want to eat the last of something, just about anything I can get away with not answering! Sometimes it backfires and the kids will come back to me and say, “He said to ask you!”

I do that, too. Even though I had a shirt about it when I was a kid. Like notebook paper, asking mom and dad and no one answering!

My husband actually complains that the kids “never” ask him about things, they always come to me. I say “Go ask your father” so he won’t feel bad!

Thanks Jill. It’s a couple of years old but it worked for the story. Because we have my mom here for the holidays we usually don’t take a photo of just our family.

Nice! Go ask your father is the perfect way to get out of answering. And yes the occasional backfire happens but more often, I get away with it ๐ Happy New Year!! Wishing the best in 2019.

I didn’t think this year was all that bad, really. Still, I’m hoping for a better 2019. Maybe I’ll win some contest and be rich, rich, rich… Maybe you will, too!

Well, except for the end of the year when the stock market fell so much, you are right it wasn’t that bad personally. I always hope for a better year than the one before and yes, rich is very acceptable!
