Mrs. Jenny Matlock's Saturday Centus Week 46

Jenny Matlock

Welcome to week forty-six of Saturday Centus.

To read Mrs. Jenny Matlock's instructions, please scroll past my SC-text, which is here:
------
It had been a long winter for Sanna Rumsten, because of the divorce-preceedings and move from their beautiful townhouse with crystal chandeliers and hardwood floors. Wanting desparately to get away, she rented a smaller apartment with only linoleum floors. It was crowded with her possessions. She would have to throw alot more overboard than just a husband to make this work.

It was morning in the new home.
The curtain parted as she drew the strings revealing the sunlit street with tatoo-parlor, used paperback-bookstore and kebab-restaurant. Not the most fashionable neighbourhood, but what choice did she have? Sanna and the children were together.

Wordcount according to Wordcalc: 100


Best wishes,
Anna

Monday's Child # 37


Illustration by Clara Burd

This is Monday' Child # 37:
------

Clara stretched as much at she could to reach up to the hanging flower-pot over at the neighbours, the Robertsons. The basket holding the pot with the peach-coloured begonias was knocked off the hook and fell down. Now, Clara had to try to replace it. But it was hopeless, as she was too short.
She knocked on the door and waited.
After several very long minutes, the door opened and Mrs. Robertson said: 'Why Clara, what are you doing here?'

"I'm sorry Mrs. Robertson. I tried to find the key and the basket fell down."
'That's alright, dear. Let me help you. There. Come in and have some milk and cake!'

Best wishes,
Anna
