hahaha, i had to laugh ,as i know it happens and sometimes very often.. i have post nasal drip. like a leaky faucet
i have a box of tissues in every room if i need a tissue and its not there i go into panic mode ,it always gives my hubs a scare!
i have kleenex in just about any pocket i wear even our car has a box of Kleenex in there.. The bathroom of course has a box full never know when i have a nose drip, its awful!
Bedroom too, seems it happens there it happens every time when i say Ka-tchoo! Lucky are you who can live without Kleenex im just glad they do not cost as much as Fedex!
not sure if its an allergy or what the heck it is but its been driving me nuts to be carrying around a box of kleenex in my home , its been tough!
But like what 2old has discovered , i myself am guitly of forgetting to empty my pockets .those white shreds everywhere ,on hubs clothes too,but seems he doesn't care ! i do have to try to get all those little white pieces separated like 2old has to do , but would be nice if only i can remember to check all my pockets for left over kleenex..
but again i wandered off the reason im here yes , only because i want to make myself perfectly clear! That I will be here the end of this year to announce my winnings again , the first of next year!!

"Post nasal drip"... something wrong with a post? I've built lots of fence, perhaps a solution I could host. Is the post loose or is it just leaning? From my repertoire of tricks, an answer I'm gleaning.
There is one thing that with which I must take issue. Can't understand how you plan on fixing a post with tissue! I better quit joking around, 'cause if the truth were to be told Each of us has experienced nuisance body issues as we continue growing old!
Those issues like post nasal drip are nothing to sneeze at, if I might be so bold. Just don't think I'm not empathetic and lock me out in the cold! The remedy for my insolence could be quite easy to treat If when the end of 2020 rolls around, I'm the Contact to beat!
Help! Someone take my shovel for I just keep digging myself a deeper hole! I just hope and pray that my rhyming, on our friendship takes no toll. What kind of a sick mind can just keep typing rhymes with no purpose or no trend When we all are just siting here, waiting for 2020 to come to an end.
Seems rather crazy, also, to already be putting words on a forum in a competition which will run a full year. After all, 2019 just ended and the last competition's winners were very, very clear. That weezer and Dusty shared the trophy, by remaining steadfast in their drive to be posting last. Let them rest on their accomplishment, knowing 2old will win in 2020 by coming in last... fast!

Why? Why, at 4 a.m. Central Standard Time Is someone sitting here trying to make a rhyme? The dog has been up and done her business outside. She went back to bed, something I should have tried!
But, NO! I'm not that smart and sit here typing away. I have so much to do later in the day. We've still got a few beautiful January days ahead of us still. Beautiful days of sunshine, with very little winter chill.
Golf to be played this morning, that will come first today. Then back home where the dog and I will play. My wife and her "little ol' ladies club" are taking in a movie matinee. They're going to see "Little Women". I'm sure she will enjoy her day.
I'm not real sure what this "Little Women" is all about, you see. I never read the book, it just never seemed to appeal to me. Likewise, I never read about the "Seven Dwarfs" when in my youth. Is "Little Women" also about dwarfs, now tell me the truth!
Are there seven little women, is that what this movie is all about? Do they have some handsome Prince they dance around and shout? Guess I will need to wait for my wife to fill me in About this movie which appears many awards it will win.
It's time I headed to the kitchen to make my oatmeal and coffee so strong. The local news is on and I'll need to shave and shower before too long. I hope you all have a very, very enjoyable day Knowing 2old didn't forget to come to TRF and play!!!

I tried to dance, once, at my prom while in high school. Stepped on my date's toes three times, which she didn't think was cool. I guess she assumed my clumsiness was a permanent trait 'Cause when I called her again, she wouldn't go on another date!
Now, I was heartbroken! My confidence too a hit. Seemed quite some time before I got over it. The time drug on as I attempted my damaged ego to repair. It was until the following day before I called another girl to see it my company she would share.
The second young lady seemed accepting to accompany me by chance. I was thrilled until she suggested we go to a local dance. Right then I knew my future with the young ladies might be at risk forever. So I called her back and, before it began, the relationship I did sever.
Then I met a girl, beautiful, with long blonde hair. She didn't dance due to two left feet... we were quite a pair! We courted for a while, then married after some time And in over fifty years of marriage have never danced... is that a crime?
I hope not since maybe dancing isn't for each and every couple together out there. It certainly wasn't for us, so stepped on toes we have not had to repair. Well... maybe stepped on toes from dancing has not come into play. I'm sure I've "stepped on her toes" with some really stupid things I did say.
She's still a beauty and her patience is sublime. It would have to be to put up with me for all of this time! That's just like the competitors in this thread in which we post our prose and rhyme. Understanding this two-left-footed-klutz is last to post this time!!

"Heartaches by the number. Troubles by the score." Ate to many jalapenos yesterday And my backside is sore... sore... sore!
"Rain, rain go away. Come again some other day." Just don't let Johnny come out to play I never liked that kid, anyway!
"Splish, Splash I was takin' a bath Late one Saturday night." The doorbell rang, I answered forgetting my clothes And my mother-in-law died of fright!
"Love me tender Love me true." You have such bad halitosis And because of that, I'll never love you!!
"What in the world's come over you? What ever made you change your mind?" You better never leave me Since anyone as handsome you'll never, ever find!
Okay, I've had enough fun for a while, I'm sure you'll agree Playing with some song lines... adding a word or three. I imagine I best stop this or I'll get myself in trouble... I'm on ice so very thin! Just wanting to let everyone know, I'm first to post last once again!

2Old , it does not surprise me anything you post your so much a of poet, its what we love about you the most.. Does it come to you like a lightening strike? or maybe when you riding your bike?
I could give you an old shoe and by golly you could turn it into some rhyme only composed by you!!
You seem to have a super natural brain It always fires up something poetic for this here game!!
How and when did you discover your poetic expertise ? were you looking up in the sky watching those magnificent snow geese? was it walking on the golf course listening to the birds sing? Maybe it was near a church hearing those loud church bells ring!
Either way i just have to say, no matter how hard i try to rhyme i have to stop and think... what can i write to rhyme on the next line?
but i do not have to rhyme when i get ready for my last post. its not easy for for me to sit here and boast.. so i will say it again and hope for the best im the last one to post here among all the rest!!!

weezer, I can't answer your questions, my dear, As to how on paper the rhymes just appear. For some unknown reason the fingers type and the words just rhyme. Must be something that just happened over time.
Over the years, words have come easy when striking the keys. Short stories, reports, etc. have seemed to come with ease. I can't remember trying to rhyme as the words do seem to appear. Until having to compete with weezer, Dusty, and the others here.
Maybe it's easier to type away and communicate this way, using the keyboard keys Than to let the speaking of words do the talking, if you please. Of our geezer golf group, I'm probably the one that's quietest when it comes to talking Other than grumbling to myself after a particularly bad shot as away I go walking.
And, I don't really carry on with a lot of conversation even when the family is here. Perhaps it's been some hesitancy, not knowing if I will make myself clear. Regardless, I do enjoy typing away on TRF with some rhyming and prose So, I just pull up the laptop... open the TRF forum... and away it goes.
One of these days, the old fingers will be crippled and unable to type fast. And I will need to accept that when it comes to my poems, I have offered my last. Until then, I must keep going. It's good exercise for my fingers and especially for my mind. Wait! Look closely and it's 2old first to post last, you will find!

One day i almost spoke to hubby in Rhyme, then had to hesitate , as i would not know how to define the rest of what ever was on my mind..
You did not tell me that Rhyme was contagious to hear me Rhyme would sound almost outrageous ! My friends would glare at me in fear that i lost my ability to talk real clear!
I have to hold back and think it would make my friends all blink thinking i have gone of the deep end and will land in the Pig pen.
well before i go i want to make myself clear talking in Rhyme really is nothing to fear as long as i am talking to 2Old he at least knows i would never be left out in the cold..
so now i must stress that i am now the Last one to post and also the last one to boast from coast to coast !! until of course only.. if 2Old does not post here!!

The Ice Queen has arrived and the trees are aglitter. Tomorrow morning, we hope, limbs and branches our yard do not litter. Some areas around us have already lost electrical power. I only hope we keep our electricity, hour after hour.
Ice is part of winter, here, I'd much rather have the snow. The ice is so dangerous if there is anyplace we must go. Whether walking or driving, there's not much so unforgiving as is ice. But it sure makes the landscape beautiful and looking nice.
I may have made a mistake by losing 25 pounds this past year. There's not as much padding if I fall on my rear! Shouldn't need to leave the house, tonight, staying in until tomorrow's sun. I've library books beside my chair and posting on TRF is always fun.
The daughter and family usually come here on Friday night. This evening, due to weather, they will stay home... tucked in tight. Granddaughter has to work from four this afternoon until tonight at ten. Her dad will take her to work and bring her back to their home again.
She is still working at least 20 hours every week, while going to high school. We think her commitment to her work, for her age, is very, very cool! She has been at the nursing home eight months, almost nine. Working mostly on the dementia wing, making residents comfortable as they decline.
Just turning seventeen and in the eleventh grade at her school Believes working with the elderly is in concert with the Golden Rule. Working all those hours she is still on the honor roll, makes us proud. Will have enough credits to graduate this year, if by her parents she's allowed.
They want her to go the last year, it is important for social interaction. So I don't think her desire to graduate early is getting any traction. She can take a number of college courses while in high school next year. Those will transfer to the college of her choice, that much is already clear.
For those of you who are part of the TRF family... who we really appreciate more each day. When winter storms visit where you live, spend time posting here and Forum Games do play. Don't take chances by trying to navigate a walk or a drive If you are to win this competition, you need to stay alive!!!
Have a nice weekend, it's Friday... if you didn't notice you probably are retired. Should you still be working, do your job and don't get fired. I really don't pay attention to the day and if you wonder why I am first to post last on every day that ends in "y"!!!!!

My good friends know well how to rhyme, but for long verses I don't have time. Or...am I just lazy? Don't Know, but I'm now Last...On With The Show!

"On with the show!", the lady says in her post. How can I compete? It's bedtime, almost! My mind is tired, my brain is rebelling. She says she's lazy? I ain't buyin' what she's selling!
I'm trying to watch "Live PD" as I rhyme. So many of these folks are going to do time. If there were no drugs and no alcohol or people to rob Think how many officers would be out of a job.
They just arrested a lady who broke into someone's home. Sounds like she around the neighborhood did roam. The officers knew the lady, they had arrested her for burglary before. Said she had been arrested a dozen times... or even more!
Now if someone has been arrested for breaking and entering that many times She's spending more time in strangers' homes that I do posting rhymes!!! What is she still doing out on the street and not confined in a jail? To her acquaintances just think she will be telling quite a tale!
If someone wants to break into our home on a whim Ask nice and we'll put on the coffee for her or for him. We don't have much anyone would want to really steal So, if they ask, my wife will prepare them a meal.
Once they have eaten we will send them on their way down the block. Immediately we will make sure every door and every window to lock. We will call the police and hope they find him and his freedom from him to relieve. By that time he should understand my wife his dinner cooked with lots of laxative!!
On a cold winter's night as the poor sot is handcuffed in the car He will realize he can't hold it, the police station is too far. The gurgling and grumbling of his tummy I must confess Will make the backseat of the patrol a rather odorous mess!
The next day my wife may visit him while he's confined With the excuse she brought him cookies, if the jailer doesn't mind. When he sees my wife standing there offering him some of what she did cook I can imagine the look on the face of this crook!
Just seeing her smile and her holding for him some more food Should cure him of ever stepping foot in our neighborhood. With that in mind I must warn those competing with me for the prize in this contest Just give me the trophy now, for posting last I am the best!!!
