“A Writer’s Playground”–A place to find wordplay, writing, and monthly calendar activities for kids and those young at heart.”
“Just Jot It January #17” by Linda Martin Andersen
I accepted a challenge for January: Just jot a note and submit. I can’t participate every remaining day this month, but I will join in when I can.
I decided to create a theme to write about:
Today, I celebrate odd experiences (oddities) and how I react to them.
Oddity is defined here: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oddity
This is what I found in my washer recently.
How did I react? I laughed out loud! Wouldn’t you?
Where have you found oddities? In the refrigerator, back of a sock drawer, etc. Once I unloaded the dishwasher and found a tea bag. It was still intact. I didn’t reuse it. 😉

Thank you for visiting “A Writer’s Playground.” Come again soon and bring a friend. Please leave a comment. I’d love to hear what you’re celebrating today. Remember that children 13 and under need an adult to comment for them. For more fun, sign up to follow my blog. Thank you!

Dear Linda, sharing odd things is fun. I don’t have any examples. I liked when you found a tea bag in the dishwasher. Funny!

As a dentist’s wife I’ve found plastic gloves in
The washing machine. And masks that he wore mowing the lawn!

Thanks for sharing, Carol. I can see that. I wonder what moms of young children would mention?

Hee hee, oddities? Very odd item in your washing machine, Linda. You make me smile. 🙂

Hi Tracy, I like it better when I find money. 😉 I glad I made you smile. You can never do too much of that, especially with your prize winning one!
