Ahahaha! Who needs beer wenches when you have the lovely Ladies of the Shed? Sheesh, you guys are never satisfied.



The half eaten meals are some of us who drank a lot of the beer and had to pee.

Walks in. Sits in the most shadowed corner.
Tunes up ears, to listen. . .

Ah and what is it that you hear? Some secrets whispered in the wind perhaps? The nosey Elf wants to know. LOL
Join in the party. We have food, booze, music and stuff.

Sorry... I was on the last sail boat heading to the new shed, so it took me awhile to get here. ( it had quite a few dragons on it 😳) I did make friends with one of the dragons , and he said he would be my personal driver and escort in the new digs. Supposed to call him Hot Shot.. lol

Ok.. * Sheye looks around * .. so this is the new shed ? Looks alot like the old one 🤔

Met someone on my sailboat ... a couple of stow aways . I will be introducing them within story form to the new shed soon.

* helps herself to a dragon cookie and wooshes off on the back of Hot Shot *

I was trying to be respectful of our Hostess's delicate sensibilities.

The keg's off camera to the right, elk parts roasting on the spit. OMG!!! who the freak gave DC the spud-gun!!!
Those were for baking!!!

I'll be slinging stew & coffee for the late arrivers and bandages for the early starters at the Trade Tent. Fine furs, good leather, herbs for your Missus, trade beads and more. Drag up a log or park you a chair the nights young and the beer's cold.




Thank You for the warm Welcome NightElf...shuffling feet and staring at the dirt.

As I heard the last time (16) more about my peers. When my opinion is warranted, I will post. Until then I continue to listen.

Hi Sweetie! So glad you have found a dragon to bond with. They are amazingly loyal creatures. I am looking forward to meeting the stow aways.

Cookies...

a reply to: Caver78

Ooooooh, let me through! I need some herbs for medicinal and beauty purposes. Beads? OMG, gonna make me some more jewelry and do some beadwork on clothing. Furs better be from animals that died of natural causes. Love soft fur...perhaps some fox ones as they are sooooo soft.

Bah, then you will be joining the bush people... they lurk there day and night I tell you. Good Lord are they amassing an army back there or what? Join in! Have some fun, share some laughter or something inspirational or silly or your troubles. But please will all you people get out of the darned bushes!

I'm shy by nature. My writing is juvenile to compare. My opinions are my own only. But if you insist, here is a Haiku:

Dealings with sleep and Death.

A touch, a caress.
The whispers of emotion.
Two lovers embrace.

River walked into the forest feeling the cool dew of the grass soothing her feet. She sat down on a wooden stump on the edge of the forest, and breathed a long sigh of relief. It had been a long and arduous journey, but one she felt was worth the risk.
Jack , her now ex , had been adamant about not wanting to leave with her, and threatened to keep their child known as Riverbabe , and she would never see her again. He did not understand the new life she wanted for them... a life of freedom, where one was not a slave to the corporations they worked for. She was tired of shipping their daughter off to long hours at day care, so they could stuggle to pay the mortage and put food on the table. " There has to be a better way" , she would often lament to Jack.
Then River heard about the forest people through a Gypsy moth, and she was convinced she had found the answer to her heartwrenching dilemma. A community of folks who believed in a simpler way of life, and who shared and helped each other . She had begged Jack for months to go to this beautiful forest full of goodwill, but Jack was having none of it, and that's when he threatened to keep their daughter Riverbabe. In his rage he even had threatened to have River commited to a mental ward. River had shook with the fear of being seperated from her daughter, and after crying herself to sleep for three nights , she devised a plan for her and Riverbabe to escape to this forest with the help of the kind Gypsy moth.
She didn't want to hurt Jack, but it was self preservation, and a new start where she could be with her child all day and night . She quietly packed a few things in the dead of night as Jack slept , knowing he would be livid in the morning.
As her and Riverbabe made their way to the dock that Gypsy had told them about , she prayed with all her heart that they would make the journey to this place called " the shed " safely.



to be continued...

Hmmm... I actually did have paragraphs in my story , but they didn't show up on my phone when I pressed reply 😕

The color coding didn't turn up either 🤷🏻‍♀️... oh well. My writing skills suck , but I won't get better unless I practice.. so bare with me shedites... and thank you for your patience !

That was just beautiful! If there is any place in the world where you don't need to feel shy, it is here in the Shed lands. Trust me! Take baby steps if you have to, but keep sharing. Oh and thank you for sharing that lovely haiku!

Sheye, that was wonderful! I loved it! If you'd like, you could put your story in a different colored font. That is what we usually do to draw someone's attention and show them there is a story being told. I use it also to draw attention to announcements or something I feel is very important in here. Thank you for writing this!

a reply to: Sheye

Your writing skills do NOT suck! I don't know how I even missed that post before writing my reply to your story post.

I did try it... the color thing.. but I must have done it wrong . Do you choose color before writing or after it ?
Going to practice doing it till I get it right 😜

Text Pink. Testing two three .. pink .. lol

Sixteen flamin' times I've had to pack and unpack now...

Sir, if I may bring this to your attention. I can, at all most no cost, provide your Highness with an excellent "relocation package". All expenses are cared for out of pocket and WI's will guarantee you will arrive in "splendor".

You'd think she'd have trained the Pixies to do it by now?

The pixies are terribly busy providing sufficient "dust" to all the new comers and have no time for "frequent flyers". They are very busy people.

Ach well, whit kin ye dae but get oan wi' it?

Oh well, what can you do but be on with it?
Please do, we anticipate your seventieth coming. I am only on my fourteenth.

I'm having that rockin' chair by the fire btw.

Have "The Chair" Sir, there is room to share with creatures of all kinds in this beloved realm.

Perhaps some will spin a tale in the warm light of the fire. Enjoying a wee dram or a grand feast.
Rock in your chair Sir, et the tune with the Light of a Night Star.

Welcome Home.

I thank you and perhaps I might step out of the shadows again.

I choose my color first, but it doesn't matter. I see your pink worked. Yay!
