Minnies Ghost is returning after a long holiday |
Hope everyone had a relaxing Memorial Day Week-end. Here is
your little story from Norway that I should have posted for you on Monday, but
was too tired. Norwegians celebrated the week-end a bit different. Most of them
just got off the party bus yesterday because holidays usually last two days. Pentecost commemorates the descent of the Holy
Spirit upon the Twelve apostles and other followers of Jesus as described in
the Acts of the Apostles 2:1–31.[2] For this reason, Pentecost is sometimes
described as the "Birthday of the Church." I had to look this up because I only know the
holiday referred to by its Norwegian name, which is Pinse. There are many
holidays in Norway during the month of May and to honest with you, I have a
hard time keeping up with them. Labor Day,
Constitution Day, Liberation Day, Women’s Day, Ascension Day, Pentecost, and White
Monday are all holidays celebrated this month. Although many of these days are
religiously connected to Easter, most Norwegians do not celebrate time in
church. There is a lot of talk these days about the church and state being separated
from each other. Since I am not very religious or political, I have no outspoken
views to come with regarding that matter. I am just tired of all these holidays,
not to mention the birthdays that happen this month as well! You have probably
figured out by now that May is a crazy month for me. You can read about some of
that HERE on My Gutsy Story. If you want to vote for "My" Gutsy Story, voting starts May 31st.
My spying skills are also a bit off because someone hid my
pink panther suit. Don’t worry, I found it and after a few repairs and a good
wash it is perfectly wearable. You should all be aware that my Eye Spy posts might change during the day...depending on what I find and when I find it. Here is what I found first, Knights of MicroFiction is back. On the 15th of every month you can take up
your writing sword and become a knight with Kathy Mckendry and Jess. Something definitely worth checking out and you can read about it at Imagine Today. I also spy Minnie who is aching for some gibberish fun, and that game starts on Friday. I have no idea what my little band of "Patriots of Standard Word Abuse" will come up once Minne gets them started! Fun, guaranteed!
You can look HERE for past games.

Let me know if there are places you want the Pink Panther to visit. Any news you want to share? Will you be another Knight of Microfiction, or how about playing with Minnies crazy gang?
