What an unusual word choice for Linda’s Just Jot it January prompt today! Now, funnily enough, I do like a skull! I know that might sound a bit macabre but there are plenty of designs out there that feature skulls and can even look quite pretty. As you can see below, this is quite cute. I actually broke the inside of it so my tablet kept falling out (thank God I didn’t break it). I was at a patient’s house and he admired it (he was the one that showed me his toenails that he kept after they had been removed) so I told him he could have it when I got a new one!

I also have a dress that I made with skull fabric which I thought was quite nice and Miss Hap looks so cute in hers with matching bandana! I have a skull hairclip as well actually!
A skull can give away so much about a person too. A few months ago, I took a Future Learn course ‘Identifying the Dead’ which was extremely interesting. If you are into forensics, it is a fascinating course that has penty of interaction, and was actually great fun too!
Oh. What an odd word, but you surely made the term more ‘friendly’? 🙂

Mis Hap…is adorable. What a great pic, and a unique dress ! Your fascination with skulls…so interesting. Maybe you should pursue that interest in Forensics, or even Anthropology ?? 💀💀💀

Ha HA! Oh, you are funny, Joey. Some of those Day of the Dead skulls are really pretty. Miss Hap drew one for her Art homework at school last year and I loved it. I had never even heard of it before then.
Perhaps you could write about ‘skull’duggery or something for today’s prompt! 🙂

I love the dress and the case even though I never were ibto the “fashiobable” skulls. Funny: I’m going to do a Future Learn course in February. Something with reading and mental health and Stephen Fry will be in a video. Sorry I was up at 2am and writing blog posts for three days. Can’t really concentrate anymore 🙂

Yes I had a look at the blog post the teachers did about how a sonnet can comfort us and there are so many great comments already. Actually I was shattered in the afternoon. Now that I should be going to bed I’m wide awake. Hope my mug of Good Night tea helps 🙂

Miss Hap is a beauty!
I can see she looks like you.
I don’t share your love of skulls, but I agree there are some gorgeous designs including skulls and a mass of wonderful doodles.
My computer crashed again! 😫 The lovely Dr.Dave will need to return.

It is funny, but neither of us think we look like each other, but thanks so much for the compliment, she is indeed a beauty. I am sorry your computer has crashed again, I hope Dr Dave can fix it soon. xx

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
