At the restaurant _________________________ joined us for lunch, and afterwards invited us to the set of  _________________________________.
______!That was fun!

The next morning when I woke up to the sound of ______________________ I thought, ‘I will definitely miss _____________ but I really miss _________,_________,_________ , _________, ______________________ and ____________________________________________ more.
Life Swap was nice, but I can’t wait to go back home!
   Because real life can sometimes be mundane, I thank you for daydreaming with me!

But in the end, I trust you felt like Dorothy, Toto and the people who chose to Wife Swap…..

        There’s no place like home.’

Life Swap


Remember the show Wife Swap?
It was a reality T.V. show which took a wife out of the country and put her in the city, a home school mom went to live with a family who had public schooled children, and a wife who had old fashioned values  was replaced with the bread winning suburban one. It might even still be on T.V. for all I know.
That show probably started with just a few men and women who truly wished they were living other lives, and who longed for the days where they could be someone else, somewhere else.
Where they pictured the grass to be greener and the flowers would smell much better than their own.
Today is Fun Friday and I would like to give you a task; a FUN one of course! You must like to play. If you think that you can hack a little bit of silliness and you feel you’re mature enough to participate, put your answers in the blanks below. Otherwise stop reading and go back to work.
Treat this like the Mad Libs we had as kid’s.
You know, the ones where you had to fill in nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc., and then when you read the story back it’d be the most hilarious thing you, and your friends, had ever heard!!
This time fill in the blanks today with dreams and things you love and then on Saturday morning (or any time after midnight) return to Yellow Inspiration and use your words to fill in the story!
