Happy Friday, Kids. First, I need to extend an apology. Oh, no, I am not apologizing for the tough photo challenge this week. Nope. I quite enjoyed the fact that no one got it right. Mwahahahaha!
I am apologizing for the fact that I have not responded to comments or read other blogs in days/weeks. I’ve been busy with work and school things, and I have not had the time energy to stay on top of the “relaxing” part of my life. Things should settle down significantly after today, though.
As is the case whenever there is a “Wednesday’s What is It?”, my work of short-fiction exactly 100 words in length (aka a drabble) will reveal the mystery photo I posted on Wednesday.
Forgive me, but I am quite pleased this photo was hard – wicked hard, even. It had to take something completely random to stump you smarties.
Let’s see if you can figure out the photo based on my drabble. Good luck! And, thank you very much for playing.

Being Pulled
He pulled the paper from the roll, thinking about how she pulled him into her life.
Her eyes.
He ripped the paper along the edge of the blade and felt as if he’d been stabbed in the heart.
So much love.
His son’s project would have to wait. He had to get her before she was gone.
In his car, he raced to the place where he left her. How could he have just left her? He needed her – more than she needed him.
His stood at the window. Their eyes met. Her tail wagged. Goldie found her forever home.

Lenore's Thoughts Exactly 
I still don’t get it. Damn you LD!!!!
It’s one of those big rolls of paper. Did you have one in art class?
It’s obviously a big roll of paper. Butcher paper?
Or it’s for art- tear off a piece for kids to paint on.
You were right the first time. I mean, whether it is used for art or other things, it is a large paper holder with a slicer. Do you remember them in art class? I found this one in the library of my kids’ school.
I didn’t have art class in school. In elementary school we would do art projects at our desks, and in high school I was involved in music, so I couldn’t take art. I do remember it at our local butcher when I was a kid. They’d wrap the meat in paper and tie it with string.
Obviously. 😉 Good job.
Drat…I should have gotten it. You even showed the butcher paper…that was the biggest clue!!! How many times I have used one of these!
I was mean and really cropped the picture in a weird way. I could have shown more paper, but I was afraid it would be too easy.
I was stumped this week!!! I thought it was something in the kitchen still— or some kind of holder but I was going for a flag holder. Totally did not get it but then I am not a schoolie so that was not fresh in my mind. Great one!!!!
Thank you Beth Ann. I hoped it would be tough, but I really expected someone to guess it.
YES!! ARRRRGGGHHHH!!! YES!!!!!!!
My anger is mollified though that Goldie found her forever home. 🙂
Who can resist puppy dog eyes? Next week will be much easier.
I couldn’t get it at all. I admire you taking on these writing challenges – I’ve been a total slug about writing, blogging, etc lately. Hope to get back with it soon!
