Texas weather was like that, you know!
Sunny at ten am but pelting down hail by afternoon.
But her life was kind of like that, too.
==========================
And between the crappy mold build up
and the spiderwebs,
the old barn was impossible to clean.
==========================
Like the barn, her moral compass
seemed to always point South of late.
It seemed like she was in a season of discontent.
==========================
No amount of vanilla candles or hot baths
seemed to ease the tension
or erase the facts of her life.
==========================
But she was no quitter,
So, she determined to eradicate the pesty mold
and take down the spiders!
==========================
Using Poppy's prompts for her challenge
(Hail, Mould, Vanilla, Compass, Spiderweb)
