Timed writing challenge for worldofscribble. Write for five minutes, including the words garden and dismiss.

"Your Mom built all of this?" Sean asked, staring at the terraced flowerbeds in my back yard in amazement.

Good idea. *smile*

(See, now who's writing slash? *grin*)

[muchtooarrogant]

Me, slash? *tries to look innocent* Nah, just going where the prompt took me, ya know?

I'm afraid the end result isn't all that original, but I did only have five minutes.

Lol, it's fine. And really, there aren't a lot of people brave enough to duck out the back gate on someone's mom.

Well, I based my idea of his mother on my former mother-in-law, and that was a lady who deserved to be walked out on, trust me. :) Actually, most of the piece derived from both the former mother and father-in-law. These are the people who, when they discovered I was blind, greeted me with every courtesy, and then gave their daughter crap for it for pretty much the entire time we were married. *sigh* Some people are just pathetic.

Anyway, glad you thought it was okay.

Thank you! The problem with the little vignettes is that I don't outline them out very far, and so have no idea what would really come next in the story. You're right though, the situation is definitely wide open.

Thanks for reading and contributing in AWOS!
