Ten Things of Thankful (jeez, gonna pretend to write something original here, or what?) What?

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

Well, we guess, 'Mostly copy'

Serially, we do like the increasingly upfront appeal to Readers that they might feel encouraged to take Reading to the next level and try Writing. (So, with a little judicious strike-throughs, allow us to make this appeal.)

This is the Wakefield Doctrine's contribution to everyone's favorite gratitude blog(hop), the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT). New to this blog? Great. Read and enjoy. Or write a list of the first ten people, places or things that come to mind as 'damn! glad that happened!'

Pretty simple, isn't it?

How simple? Well, we (your Narrator and pro temp host) already have a new Grat to add to our own damn list! Can't we get a 'You're Welcome!?   Yes 'sir. That easy. And fun.

ProTip: Writing fiction, a memoir, whatever, is meant for fun and enjoyment. Unless, a'course you're a member of the Real-Writers-Hear-Us-Bore! union. No, this TToT place is: 1/3 the clubhouse you knew about as a kid and sometimes were allowed in and 1/2 the kind of place you would wish for your kids or dogs or any other lifeform that you're gifted by being responsible for and 1/4 ...did we say fun? Yeah, well, as the old saying reminds us, 'Fun is something you allow yourself. No one else can do that for you.'

ed note: hey, you're reading this on blogger 'cause, well, we suspect it's because you got into the blogging thing one a whim, without a lot of direct input from friends already doing it. Back in the Golden Age (2008-2014) of Blogging. And, while a lot of people were all, 'Hey, ya gotta go with WordPress. It's so much more...'

and you're like, 'Nah, I'm good... (photo at top for our Y Chromosomian Readers) 

far be it from us to try to change your mind... for some of us blogging is nothing less than a balancing act like  

On with our List.

1) Phyllis

2) Una

3) the Wakefield Doctrine

4) the above (in the intro) hypothetical Reader. for listening to our wordage

5) the Six Sentence Story bloghop

6) the Unicorn Challenge bloghop

7) relative lack, (more, a deficiency) of snow for the time of year. (If this was Summer, we'd be saying, "Think it might rain some?" (and you might reply) 'oh, Ayuh. Supposin' it might. Been a dry one, though. Driest since aught six.' Holy Shit! Just realized we're in a point in time we can use 'aught' in a designation of a period of time. Don't happen but once a century! Well, 20 years ago at this point. But you get what we mean.

8) our daily trip north to inspect our property (Bonus Grat!! They, (the owners), acknowledged that a zip code district is not the equivalent of a municipality. This they will admit.)

9) something, something

10) Secret Rule 1.3
