Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop. Each week the hostinae, (and yours truly), post a TToT from our respective timelines. The content is individual, the format is shared. A list of ten people, places and things that have risen to a prominence in one’s consciousness, either through the agencies of memory, muse, god-do-you-remember-the-time and, if all else fails, alchemy* of whimsey.
The broad standards cited herein are because this exercise is about gratitude. And, while a. lessor host might be tempted to do something along the lines of thankful for gratitude… we do have standards. Well, in the interest of full disclosure, we leave embracing that to our hostinae: Mimi and Kristi, Dyanne and Denise, Lisa and Misky
1) Phyllis
2) Una
3) the Wakefield Doctrine
4) yard project completed. Grat #7 in last week’s TToT serves as the Before
Here is the After: (it’s a dark-grey chipstone, contrasts nicely with with the grass, no?)
5) the non-Winter season. Our answer to the eternal summer question is: ‘No. No, it is not’ And the photo at the top of this post is an 8:00 o’clock evening. boo-yah
6) the Six Sentence Story bloghop
7) the Unicorn Challenge bloghop
8) something, something
9) The Weekapaug Breachway
