Chocolate is not a meal? They never told me. That's why I had to join Weight Watchers. Haha! The activities of your day compared to a kaleidoscope with various colored font, is creative and humorous. Funniest to me...Housework! No! Rotate again. Best wishes in the contest.

Ciao mystery poet, you now have 4 votes.

In all honesty you had me hooked as soon as I read your first sentence.. my pets are my alarm clock also and their needs come first.

Most of your other activities I do too except I don't have grandchildren nor children of my own.

My pets keep me on my toes!

I like to review on fanstory.

    Thank you very much. I appreciate your kind review! Pets and their needs must be our priority. They are vulnerable and dependant on our care for their comfort and well- being, but they make us rich with their love and loyalty. Thank you too for your vote. That's wonderful too.

I liked the creative use of the kaleidoscope to walk us through your day. It does sound like a day full and colourful! A lovely contribution...I may just have had chocolate as a meal shhhh.

This was a lovely and creative piece. I loved the whole metaphor of the Kaleidoscope - I have used the metaphor in some of my writing (not on this website). I enjoyed reading this.

    Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging review! I appreciate it. Yes, I wanted to be different, not just list my day's activities. Thanks again.

What a happy serene life you lead. I find it interesting that the housework, not only is black, but only gets a single line - less likely to be seen so will be ignored ! sensible. Kate xx

    Yes, let's rush past housework! Low on my priority list. One can always keep shaking that kaleidoscope until one gets a satisfactory and pleasing pattern. (Not literally of course. I hope that using a metaphor won't disqualify me!) Thanks for a super review.

Sounds like a day of many adventures. I am not sure I would use a kaleidoscope. But it is a colorful idea. I would have to create a to-do list so I could get my favorites done first thing in the morning.

    Lol. Thank you Rosemary. Yes, it's just a type of metaphor for prioritising - although the activities are real enough.

Your story is cute, and the kaleidoscope idea is the most creative. Your artwork adds a lot to the meaning of your words, too. In short, it is very well done. I wish you the best in the contest.

I like the kaleidoscope metaphor you use to describe your day. Indeed you seem to have a variety of choices of what to do. Nice that there's usually time for FanStory. Rod

This is a type of day writing prompt entry, rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
Good luck with your contest Entry.
