Raven's Saturday Wordzzle: Week 65


This is week 65 of the Saturday Wordzzle challenge. Anyone new to the process can refer back here to find out how it works. I would like to thank Raven for hosting this weekly writing challenge.

Please go to her site and read some wonderful stories.

This week's ten word challenge will be: parasite, meals on wheels, crows, it's my fault, everything but the kitchen sink, on sale, patriotism, the love of my life, library card, common sense And for the mini: blackmail, California, stethoscope, postage, crank

Remember Nathan, that homeless man I told you about week before last? "So what's he up to now?" He had started that homeless motel for folks in need of shelter. Now he has organized a meals on wheels using the folks in the shelter to help cook and deliver the meals. There was just one little problem, one of the folks was so bad off that he had parasites from eating things like garbage and even a black crows. You would be surprised what hungry people will eat.


I feel like it's all my fault because I did not think to have him checked out by the local Doc.The man was so hungry that he put everything but the kitchen sink on his plate. Now that the Doc had taken care of him, he was doing so much better. He had a library card and used his common sense when buying things on sale.

Nathan had met Sarah Jane working at meals on wheels. They hit it off so well that invited her to the fourth of July celebration. He wanted to show her his patriotism because she had become the love of his life and brought him so much joy.





Here is my mini challenge






The doctor had been illegally practicing medicine for nine years. One day he received a blackmail letter with an American flag postage stamp on it. Inside the letter was a picture of a stethoscope and a note that said "I know what you did."
If you do not stop practicing medicine, I will contact the California State Board of Medicine and turn you in for illegally prescribing Speed or more commonly known as "Crank" to young drug addicts.

Excellent my friend. I'm glad the doc took care of the parasites and more importantly that Nathan has a date for the 4th of July. I do hope we find out how it goes :) Hmmm I hope the doc get's his just do's if he indeed is doing that. Which I think he is because he is practicing illegaly. Great stories :)

Sorry I missed you yesterday.
Good to see the Nathan story going on. And now it has some romance.
The second story is sad .'Good writing.

Raven said...

Well done! I love that nice romance in the first one. An what a clever/smart way to use crank in the second. Brava!

I love that you used Nathan from your POW story in this week's wordzzle - very cleverly done.

Also your mini was fantastic especially how you used 'crank'!

Great stuff Pam. :)

What a great idea for the residents of the homeless shelter to provide meals to others in need.

I'm glad that Nathan has recovered his health and that he now has a honey.

How sad about that bad doc. And nice to know about the good doc who cured that poor guy. Thanks for helping out the homeless, and for stopping by my blog and your supportive words. You have a very beautiful blog too. Hope you have a great week :)

This looks like fun. Maybe I will do this one too, even though I am so dang late.

I'm just feeling so behind. Like I'm waiting for another shoe to drop over here and I don't get anything done while I am waiting for it to hit.
