Or, in English, Christ is Risen!
The correct response is Alitos Anesti! Or, Truly He has risen!
I wish you and you family a fabulous, blessed, Pascha day!
I’ll be back with regular posts starting tomorrow…oh, and one more surprise tomorrow as well…no, it’s not at ALL what you think.
That’s what I am with our representatives so I thought that it would be a great word to look at the many different ways to express today:
balked, crabbed, cramped, crimped, defeated, discontented, discouraged, disheartened, embittered, foiled, fouled up, hung up on, irked, resentful, stonewalled, stymied, through the mill, ungratified, unsated, unslaked, up the wall
My favorite is that last one, up the wall! Yeah, that explains it right about now. I only want them to listen to the voters, is that too much to ask?
It’s that time again! This week’s word of the day is really making me laugh my a** off right now.
Why?
Glad you asked!
See, I am NOT a Sci-Fi fan by any means…as a matter of fact I steer AWAY from these things. I really don’t get it.
My husband, however, is a HUGE Sci-Fi fan…as is his family. It’s seriously a bit scary at times.
A little while back we got my MIL her first Blue Tooth ear piece. BEFORE she got one she hated the things…drove her batty! Now that she has her very own…well, let’s just say that she rarely takes it off, even when she isn’t using it.
Why? She says it makes her feel like a
I always figured that it had to do with something geeky like that but I never really knew for sure until today when I typed in the number for the day and this word turned up…yep, I married into a particularly geeky family!
So, anyone want to try using the word in a sentence?
I really hope that no one in congress have:
The lawsuits are flying after last nights vote. Someday the people we elect into office will actually do what they are supposed to do: represent those who elected them into office; not do what they think they should do.
We aren’t stupid people and we have a constitutional right to be heard, not have our decisions made for us.
God Bless this country.
Years ago when I was just out of college and was working as a teacher in a toddler classroom, I worked with a woman who really had something against me. I’m not sure exactly why, but she really looked down her nose at me…LITERALLY!
The funny things was that I am 5’7” barefoot and she had to be around 5’2” at most. When I talked to my supervisor about it she almost laughed for a second because of the image of someone so much shorter than me looking down her nose at me.
She had a way of lifting her chin just so that it was very demeaning. My supervisor talked to her about it but it never really got superbly better…it got more manageable, but not better.
Have you ever had anyone look down their nose at you? Literally or figuratively…or both!
I only picked this word because I am currently having one as I type this. I was trying to think of a good word to use, looked at my bowl of popcorn (tried popcorn and found there were no matches) and decided on snack.
Other words for snack are:
bite, bite to eat, break, eats, goodies, grub, light meal, lunch, luncheon, midnight snack, morsel, munch, nibble, nosh, pickings, piece, refreshment, tea, tidbit
Now, I’m off to finish my nosh of chipotle popcorn (yes I said chipotle popcorn and it is better than I could have dreamed).
What’s your favorite tidbit?
Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! I hope you have a lucky day!
Now that we got that out of the way, how about we look at the word for today:
It is also a mountain range in the Sierra Nevada range and is an American operatic soprano and manager who joined the New York City Opera in 1955 and was its general director from 1979 to 1989.
So do you remember what to do now? Leave a comment using the word in a sentence…go on, I’m waiting!
