Eating and Writing with Third Thursday Poets #TuesdayTidbit #WeeklySmile #Inspiration
Here in Sheridan, Wyoming, for years, I’ve participated in a local poets’ group that meets once a month at the senior center. Because our meetings happen on the third Thursday of the month, we call ourselves the Third Thursday Poes. We started in September of 2006 as a weekly class funded by a humanities grant. When the class ended after nine weeks, we decided to continue meeting once a month and have been doing so ever since. When the pandemic started, I arranged for us to meet via phone conference, but it wasn’t long before we were back together again in person. Our original instructor is no longer with us, but we each take turns facilitating our meetings.

September 26, 2023Hi, Abbie.
You’re welcome.
I’m sorry I’ve not shared more of your work this week.
It’s been a rat race around here.
Abbie Johnson Taylor
September 26, 2023No worries, Patty. I’ve been busy, too.

September 26, 2023This writing gig aint no joke and now I’m betting you and your musical friends are gearing up for the holidays.
Abbie Johnson Taylor
September 26, 2023Yes. Both my singing groups are working on Christmas music now.
Patty Fletcher
September 26, 2023Oh boy. By the time Christmas gets here you’re bound to be sick of it. LOL.
Abbie Johnson Taylor
September 26, 2023No, I usually don’t get sick of Christmas music. My groups only practice once a week. But when I was in high school and college, where choirs practiced every day, that was a different story.
Patty Fletcher
September 27, 2023Oh do I remember those days of high-school. And the Christmas plays were even worse. LOL.
Of course, there was band too. So starting in October and going forward until the holidays passed I was Christmass overload.
LOL.
