Mrs. Jenny Matlock's Saturday Centus Week 32

This is Mrs. Jenny Matlock's intructions:

Welcome to week thirty-two of Saturday Centus.
STOP! If you didn't read the end SC's from last week, please take a moment to do so. Just work backwards until you find out where you left off. I feel really bad that the people at the end don't get read.
Thanks!

Now on to regular SC biz...In case you've forgotten...
This is a themed writing meme. You can use UP to 100 words to tell your story. The prompt does not count for your 100 words AND it must be left intact in the body of your story. No illustrations are permitted. Your story can be fact or fiction, just keep it PG, please!
You have the entire week to link your work to the meme and you can link more than one story if you like.
Please display link button or just a hyper-link back to Saturday Centus. Be careful to link your SC URL to the Linky and not just link to your main blog.
I would suggest that since these are so short, if you can't think of a title just use your blog name as the title in the Linky.
Try to visit each one because there are some amazing writers participating in this meme. Since the links are so short they are also a fun and quick read.
Please e-mail me directly with ???'s or ask your question in a comment and I will do my best to get back to you as soon as possible.
This week the prompt is: "An involuntary gasp of shock escaped my lips when I opened the shoebox and saw the pointy-toed shoes..."
Link anytime between now and next Saturday morning.


Here is my SC-text:

Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again. Mrs. Danvers was away and I was finally able to look through Rebecca's bedroom closet. I had hoped to find room for my own things; but there was none. The closet was packed with clothes and shoeboxes. It occured to me that I might find a shoebox filled with letters that would help me understand Maxim better. But Rebecca's shoeboxes were filled with everything, except letters. I hesitated when I found the very last box before opening it. What would I learn about Rebecca? An involuntary gasp of shock escaped my lips when I opened the shoebox and saw the pointy-toed shoes. She must have had deformed feet!

Link anytime between now and next Saturday morning.


Here is my SC text, the prompt is highlighted in orange:

He decided to not cut one of his fir trees. She, on the other hand, wanted to make it a happy Christmas for the children; even if it meant buying one. She took the worn out stroller with her to the square where trees were sold. It was the morning of Christmas Eve. Most shops were closed.* The tree-sellers were gone, but left a sign with the unsold trees: 'Take what you like!' She chose the smallest, and wheeled it home in the stroller.
The bin of tangled up holiday lights was a result of the children's helpfulness. One more, but very minor problem to solve.


*In Sweden, you open your presents on Christmas Eve and go to church very early on Christmas Day.

K is for Kittens - Mrs. Jenny Matlock's Alphabe-Thursday, Round 2 - K, Meow Diaries Fluffy Friday #50

K is for kittens! This is Anna-Lisa and her two kits, Anna-Matilda and Nils. This is not an entirely happy post, as these kittens went to another home and not to the children Elisabet and Erik. I'll just have to let this post be a sort of 'Wordless Wednesday', as I just don't know what to say. We all miss the kittens, who are almost grown now, but are happy that they are living with good people.
I am linking to Mrs. Jenny Matlocks' Alphabe-Thursday, Round 2 - K as well as Mariuca's Meow Diaries, Fluffy Friday # 50.

Best wishes,
Anna











A little later, the kits have grown...





More time passes and they almost look like grown up cats.
