On The Road To Mystery!?!
5 DAY Andre the Blog Monkey's April Fools Mystery Writing Challenge


Blog Prompt for Day 5 Yesterday is history and tomorrow is a mystery. Think about your future, short-term then long-term, is it all a mystery or fairly predictable, share your findings in today's blog entry.

Thank you for playing along in this 5 Day Challenge. I enjoyed it so much I'm adding a BONUS PROMPT for Day 5.1 (April 15th)

I was going to release the prompt in this post, but then thought, No! I'll leave it a mystery.


I have more or less touched on this subject in my blog before, take a peek here if you’d like "Looking Forward...and backOpen in new Window., so I am going to try hard not to repeat myself!

I will update the countdown for the most important upcoming date/change in my life my pending retirement is now 438 days away, sometime in June 2021, I will leave my current job and head off into the sunset of retirement years. It’ll be a little weird but not as much as it might be for some…after all I’ve got an ace in the hole – "I'm Just the 'Bone PlayerOpen in new Window.

Are there plans? Yes, of course there are, some are detailed in that earlier blog post and of course there are others.

A bit of travel; Two biggies are Italy and Ireland. With the love of my life, Lenore, I’d like to visit both countries for a minimum of a month each. Figuring it’s a one-shot deal, let’s do it right! Of course, places and things in the States and Canada I would like to see again for the first time with Lennie. And, Oh Yeah! A cruise or two would round everything out.

Lennie is a great baker; I’m looking forward to when she has more time to bake. I want to learn to bake bread. Maybe we’ll do a cooking class or two together.

There are “little ones” in both of our families, we’re both looking forward to seeing them grow up!

The Mystery in all this? Wellllll – “The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men”, comes to mind. If these last few months have been any indication, plans have a way of going awry in a double-time hurry. Life can change in a heartbeat; plans are wishes that don’t always come around. You can make’em, but don’t bet the farm on’em.

I’d like to Thank Brother Nature Author Icon and all my fellow participants in the Challenge, it’s been fun!!
